Great article and well written. It pretty much mirrors all the info on Tabberone site. We, as quilters, ALL need to understand what is being said so we aren't being taken as fools by pattern makers any longer.

When I read something like this, the first thing I look for is: Does the person have a legal background & where do they live? She's a British citizen & lives in the Cayman Islands. Does this still apply? Might, might not. She does have a disclaimer "Different laws may also apply to different regions of the world. Check your local laws." I would look for an article published in the country in which I reside.

When it comes right down to it, it makes sense. Patterns are basically geometry - straight lines and curves. That's it. How you manipulate them to get what you want to make is the pattern. Pull-on shorts, flip flops, bicycles, sewing machines, all made by various manufacturers all over the world, and all need fundamentals to make them work and the designer provides the interest.
Thanks for posting this!
