OMG!! I want to quilt Starry Night, too! I even have a small poster of it in my sewing stuff. Too funny. Do you think they'll let us stay at the same prison?
As far as my cherries- I think I am safe because it's an antique design from the 30's, so that would put it in the public realm I believe. I got it out of a Good Housekeeping book, so maybe they re-copywrote it? My quilt looks far different from the one in the book and the cherries are the only thing that I used from the pattern. Maybe this is a derivitive "work"... is a derivitive work illegal?
I hope they let me quilt in prison! (Can you imagine- how much sewing time would I have there!??? But probably no scissors...)
