Something has awful has happen to one of our fellow designers, Ellen of "With My Needle", rather than explain I will let you read her post here. I feel as stitchers we need to keep a look out to stop this, if we hear of groups sharing or copying charts; or if we hear of sites like Ellen mentions in her post. So if you do find this happening we need to contact the designer and make her aware of the infringement.
There is a blog you can also follow that has some information, you can see it here
Thanks so much, Jean, for posting about this terrible problem which is affecting so many--designers, shops, distributors, and needleworkers.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very bad problem and designers rights should be respected.
