I read this with interest for hours. I want to design patterns to sell on my friend's website. Can I do that? Can I photograph an item I made using my patterns but someone else's design? What if I have say an Ohio star block in my pattern? If you ask me, (You did ask, didn't you?) the only people to benefit from this silliness are the attorneys. Others will put the book/pattern back on the shelf or not buy the designer's fabric.
