I had a very well versed reply typed, including Supreme Court citations, and my computer crashed.

So, I will just say this...after talking to my DH (an administrative law attorney) and his partner about copyright law and this Tabberone site, they agree that the issue is completely blown out of proportion. The fear mongering is senseless. When you lay down your cash and purchase a pattern, you are free to make and sell anything you want BESIDES copies of the actual printed pattern.

BUY your patterns, make something pretty. Keep it, sell it, give it away. You are under no obligation to anyone to do otherwise.

And if you can find citation of a court case where someone was actually held accountable for selling an item made from a pattern that they bought, I will eat this laptop, piece by piece.
