I went to a quilt show and got one of the books (magazine) that they give you when you first go in. Well I had taken alot of pictures of different quilts figureing that I would post them on here. Well I was looking at the booklet and in it it had said that you weren't allowed to post any pictures of the quilts that were here at the show on FB or any other site. How terrible I thought. I wanted to share my enjoyment at the show.
To me anyone who puts a quilt in a show shouldn't mind someone else to enjoy the pics that they took and want to share with their friends who couldn't go to the show. But if that is the case well they shouldn't have put them in the show. Anytime when there is an event people are going to take pics and share them on the internet with family, friends, and their groups. What are they afraid of? Shame on these events ( Lancaster Quilt Show etc. ) or any of the other big organizations that feel this way . Also these quilts that are on tour, No Pictures Allowed!!! Hog wash. Don't do this don't do that. I'm sorry if I have hurt anyones feelings but this is the way I feel. And it's not only with quilt shows it in general too. If you don't want pictures taken of something that you put on display well then keep it home all under a sheet or locked away for no one to see it.
