where did you read that?
My sew group wanted to make quilts to sell using a bought pattern. We contacted the designer and she said buy as many patterns as the quilts we were making to sell. All she wanted was the profit from the patterns to satisfy her end and that was all she was entitled to legally. We bought 20 patterns. Sold 18 quilts. One member's husband is an attorney and he said we didn't even have to contact the designer as long as we had documentation we bought 20 patterns sold no more then 20 quilts. Anyway no one was arrested.
