By the By it is a lovely quilt.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02989055537382959198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19129786.post-90426745893343511322009-02-02T18:31:00.000+00:002009-02-02T18:31:00.000+00:00Tell her how you feel.

She's a professional, and she's using your quilt to attract business. Perhaps you could contact her and say "I'm delighted to see that you've got my quilt up on your website -- I'm flattered! But would you mind adding the credit of my name?" <BR/><BR/>You'll get the point across in a nice way. If I were you, I'd assume it was an oversight but watch carefully for future instances. :-)Diane Perinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07447372718275554860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19129786.post-11156234033195411892009-02-01T19:41:00.000+00:002009-02-01T19:41:00.000+00:00Yes, I agree with those who think you should appro...Yes, I agree with those who think you should approach her - email or call and just ask if she would mind giving credit for the quilt - I'd do it casually without making a big deal of it.

Either is fine, it is a choice you have to make about who you want to be though.... :-)Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15763869971803840742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19129786.post-24444071356885952312009-02-01T01:58:00.000+00:002009-02-01T01:58:00.000+00:00You absolutely have the right to be miffed if she ...You absolutely have the right to be miffed if she has not acknowledged you as the maker of the quilt, and you should not have to ask her to do so.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19129786.post-81776901616673112242009-02-01T01:09:00.000+00:002009-02-01T01:09:00.000+00:00It is not unreasonable for you to expect and requi...It is not unreasonable for you to expect and require attribution.
