I noticed in the latest copy of Fons & Porter, they give permission to use one of the patterns. that was nice to see.
It appears that more and more we are being restricted and if we question or complain, we are "not understanding" what they meant. there is a reason that McCalls printed that article but now there is so much backlash that they will have a fun time trying to explain it all. I wonder how much their magazine will suffer in all of this.
I can't wait to read the next installment in the copyright saga and see what they say-especially about the quilt show issues.
I can't wait either, should be interesting...gee whiz, they created lots of ill will for themselves. You know I was thinking, our little quilt show is "display" only, no money is changing hands, just a group of guild quilts for women to admire.
