Two quilts were were offered as patterns and instructions. One was your Pineapple Blossom. The instructions that were given out were a direct copy of what you have on the blog. I am asking if the instructor had asked permission to teach that quilt. No where did she mention that it was originally yours.<br /><br />I had signed up for it and the weekend before the retreat (as I was cutting the strips necessary), I googled the name Pineapple Blossom as it sounded familiar. I was surprised to find that (1) it was yours and (2) that I already had all the instructions saved on my computer.<br /><br />The instructors name is Colette Kocinski. Since you have a copyright notice (©2005-2017 All contents of this blog are the property of Bonnie K. Hunter, and cannot be reproduced in any way without prior written consent.) on your blog and offer free patterns. I presume that the "free" is for personal use and not for giving to "paid" customers. If she did not ask for permission, I would like to know that. As a sometime teacher, I am very careful to NOT use someone else's material whether designs or instructions.threadladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18442208738779431471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-55317843905708828682017-11-03T21:12:59.642-04:002017-11-03T21:12:59.642-04:00I would like to add my thanks to you Bonnie, for y...I would like to add my thanks to you Bonnie, for your time.

I <br />appreciate, more than words can say, all of your communications, thoughts and contributions to my daily life. You are like a best friend that goes everywhere with me (like Ireland) but with whom I rarely disagree. What a blessing. Thanks from the bottom of my heart!!
