BOB and footnotes

BOB is confused again -

If she uses a certain “line” of fabric -

And makes something -

And then posts a photo of it -

Can she tell you -

The name of the fabric line -

Or not? 

If she does - will she get sued for naming it?

If she doesn’t - will she get sued -

For NOT naming the fabric line -

Or the designer -

Or the manufacturer -

Or the thread count? - ;))

BOB was taught to ALWAYS -

Give credit to her sources -

We used to have to do “term papers” -

In school -

And we needed footnotes -

Citations -

And a bibliography -

Nowadays -

All of that has been replaced by links -

And the threat of copyright infringement -



But then again - it’s probably just me.

BOB's Sampler Quilt

LHQ and I have decided to make a Sampler Quilt -

We call it our -
Left-HandedQuilter’sSamplerQuiltandyoubetternotcopyitorIwillhollercopyrightinfringementlikesomeoneelseweknowjustkiddingalloftheblocksthatIammakingarebasicandclassicandpublicdomainandcanbefoundinabunchofbooksandIthinkthatquiltersthroughouthistoryarebynaturecopycatsandlovetocopyeverythingtheyseetryingtomakequiltpatternsoutoftilemosaicsandallmannerofotherthingsunderthesunandIwouldbehonoredifyouwouldfollowalongandmakeyourownversionofmysamplerquiltandwouldloveitifyoucalleditaLHQSQandlinkedbacktomyblogthankyouverymuch;))

LHQSQ for short - ;))

It should be fun - seeing as how we HATE sampler quilts - and we HATE BOM's - hahaha.

Seriously, though - it's mostly in protest of the drama surrounding that other sampler quilt.

I'm still pissed that she can claim copyright crap on public domain blocks in a standard size - geesh!!

Anyway - I thought I would make a game of it - see if I can come up with 99 - 9-patch blocks from hither and yon.

Can't tell anyone that there will be 99 (I hope) or I'm sure to scare everybody off.

See - I probably scared you off with the mere MENTION of a sampler quilt - right?

But - hey - they're only going to be 6" - and mostly squares - HST - and QST - see how far that gets me.

And I hear that I probably shouldn't mention the fabrics I use either - oh, joy - ;))
