"As a quilt and crochet designer, I create my patterns primarily for my own personal use.  I've recently designed two completely different Celtic quilts, one using a modified version of the log cabin, the other with squares and various types of triangles.  While the log cabin isn't the 'original design' (like the sunset as discussed above) my interpretation of the log cabin into a Celtic design is original as I have never seen anything like what I've done.  In putting the pattern on the market for sale, and not the original quilt created from it, I fully expect the purchaser to make a quilt using their own color palette and this wouldn't be a Copyright infringement, even if they made the quilt for resale.  Reproducing my original pattern and selling the pattern as their work would constitute Copyright infringement.  Since my work is covered by Copyright for my lifetime, and bequeathed to my daughter for her lifetime, anyone who attempted to duplicate my original pattern design could be sued by either myself or my daughter in the event of my death.  The same holds true for the crochet items that I've designed, baby clothes, slippers, a bath TP caddy, afghans, etc.   If you want to make all of the items I've designed and sell the finished product, that's implied in the sale between myself and the buyer, but don't reproduce my patterns and instructions and represent them as yours, that is Copyright infringement that can become a legal entanglement most designers wouldn't want challenged."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
