I will be checking from now on. Thanks for the other thread about this topic! I just went and Googled Creative Crafts Group, LLC and Quilter's Home is under the same umbrella as McCalls as well as a bunch of other magazines, so if anyone else is thinking of discontinuing your subscription or for any other reason you might want to check them out, you can find out who has this statement in their magazine. Just my little rant. Thanks for listening!
I can't believe the comments I'm reading about McCalls and other magazines. Do you stop to realize that these magazines are a boone to our hobby's? Take Quilter's word for instance: They not only publish the picture, but include the pattern, measurements, material required. As a published writer, I am very well aware of Copyright restrictions. Shame on all of you for not doing your homework. A pattern, etc can be used with changes and it does not infringe on even the US Copywrite regulations.
