I do understand her note of not using pictures directly from her website. But stating no pictures and no selling? Going to be hard to control. Depends who has the best lawyer, and the biggest checkbook and a judge who interprets what was done. I am all for justice and respecting the work of others, but I don't think someone can control what I do with an item I purchase, especially since it is sold as an item to make.
I have just had a look at her site and agree with Bneighbor - I started an identical quilt to what Diana makes about 10 yrs ago from a magazine (just had a look at the mag and its not hers) so where does one go from here??? I sure wont be buying any of her books or patterns
