Attribution actually not a requirement of copyright. The only time there is copyright infringement is when you are selling someone else quilt pattern and saying that it is your own. Even if you made quilts to sell from someone else's pattern you do not need to attribute the pattern to them.

Now.... let us see that quilt! I really want to make eyes at it and oooooh and aaaaahhhh over it.
Thanks for this explanation. This makes the most common sense and hopes this takes away our fears.
