How do we know if there is truly a legal copyright on a design/pattern or if someone is just stating they have a copyright.
Good question. As an example, how was Candlequilter able to copy the block from a quilt displayed on here, create the block in EQ7, call it the Candlequilter Star, then get it copyrighted? I am sure I am missing something here and I apologize for not reading every post on the Board to figure this copyright stuff out. Thanks for everyone giving us the heads-up on it.
