As for the copyright, my understanding is the same, you buy the pattern and can make as many quilts as you like from it, but you cannot re-sell the pattern.
I like it when you women stalk me, and all you've seen are my feet.

As far as copyright, you can post your own work that was derived from a copyright pattern. You cannot post the pattern and you cannot give it away unless as below, you give all copies of the pattern away.

As far as selling a copyright pattern, sure, as long as you give up every copy of the pattern you own. You cannot sell it as yours though, you must acknowledge who owns the copyright. This is like if you bought a photograph from a famous photographer. He/she owns the copyright to the photo, you own the copy. If you find some fool who will pay you 10x what you payed for it, you can sell it. Can't make a copy of it though.
