I have contacted a number of designers, magazines and fabric places to ask re selling items made with their patterns. With one exception I have received approval (with the caveat 'as long as your not setting up a factory in China). After that and all the great information received here the conclusion I've reached is 'I'm no longer going to be overly concerned about getting permissions but will give credit to magazine and/or designer. if I ever get around to making something to sell. Usually mine never turn out exactly like the pattern anyway so if someone wants to get upset I can always apologize & try to make it right.
