Apologies if you're not old enough to remember the old del Monte advert that inspired my post title today.
Anyway, Erin Erickson who made the pattern and tutorial for the circle purse I made has said that I can go ahead and start making more of them! She will put a licensed version of the pattern on her blog (Dog Under My Desk) and when it is up I can pay for it and go ahead and sell the ones I make. Yippeee!!!
She seemed grateful that I'd bothered to ask permission as anyone selling them on Etsy at the moment doesn't have permission to do so! As Erin says, it takes an awful lot of time to follow up everyone who's ripped off your work!
It really does drive me nuts when people rip of what we do as artists. It's hard enough to make any money from Art in a recession without someone else benefitting from your hard work.
Stepping down off my soapbox now . . . . .
