I asked that question (on this board) some months ago because I do "borrow". The kits are waaaaaaay too expensive and I dislike someone else making my fabric choices for me. The answer I liked and decided to use as a guide was that if the blocks, etc., are common (public domain) that you are not violating copyright. I might be less inclined to copy if I were planning to sell the finished quilt, but I don't do that.
