jstitch and moonpi,
You two seem to be the experts on this, so I'll ask you to clarify something for me...
You're saying that if I buy the book -- let's say I subscribe to Fons and Porter's Love of Quilting magazine -- then I have permission to make the quilts, even for sale? Is that right? Or is it OK for me to make them for personal use/gifts only?
I have much more experience in copyright with sheet music, so this is a whole new area for me. And it's not at all the same.
Thanks for your patience and experience here.
