Thank you for stopping by the Needlework Copyright blog.
The purpose of the blog is to educate and create an awareness in the needlework industry as to the seriousness of a problem that seems to be growing larger and larger. Some people feel that their actions harm no one, so it is the goal of supporters and followers to show you that real people and businesses are feeling the effects of this illegal activity.
No one person or company represents the blog. We are a community of needlework designers, shop owners and suppliers.
It is our hope that positive and constructive dialogue can begin in your groups, shops, and neighborhoods. It's our industry we are trying to preserve for the future.
We remain positive in the hope that spreading the word of copyright rights and wrongs is the best defense we have towards preservation of the needlework industry. Some designers have already left the industry because the fight to preserve what belonged to them was too large. Though it may sound cliché, every stitcher can make a difference.

It's large here for downloading but you can make it smaller for your sites.
It is still legal to sell the original needlework chart that one has purchased. It is just like buying a book and selling it after you have read it.
