I'm sure the rules vary from person to person, however. You might contact the artist/publisher and ask.
My chapter is going to do the Under Ground Railroad and ALL participants are required to purchase our own book prior to the class. If we don't, we can't participate. We will begin Jan. 2011. However, once the quilt or squares are completed, I can photograph them and post them where ever I wish as the work is mine, the pattern and book can be credited and then anyone interested can go purchase the books. I could NOT scan in and share photos of HER work as that would be copyright infringement - only my own pieced squares and quilt.
