I just checked this website and the pic of the quilt is still there. Way I read it if I didn’t know better I’d say she made the quilt

I must have been the last one to view the picture -- I just went to the site (using the link provided here) but there was no credit given at all for the quilt, not even in faint print. It's just not right for them to use your picture without your permission.

Okay, I just went back to the site (from the link above) and yes, the quilt picture is still there. Plus you are give no credit whatsoever. If it were me, they would take the picture down! It's your call, Marion! The picture shows up when you click on "Product Reviews", page 3.

I couldn't see the photo on the link you gave but just now found this one, which seems to state the quilt was made by Shannon Reid. That Is a cheek.

How do you take down old photos on Facebook? I have found some of mine on questionable sites too.

That photo is yours. When they used it, it was copyright infringement, for what ever reason, whether they gave you credit or not. My hubby has a business where this is attempted time and again. That is what lawyers are for. (I am not even going to go into the fact hat that the quilt is yours and they are promoting their business with your work, I am just talking about the use of your photo alone is a copyright issue.) A watermark is not required to enforce this.

PS. I am not flattered when a thief steals my diamond necklace because, why? we both thought it was pretty???
