All of the designs on this site are by default covered by a Creative Commons License. I love people using my designs and using anything I make as inspiration. So long as you in turn share your ideas and finished results with everybody else. I ask that you don’t use my designs for commercial purposes. However, if you are making one off stitched works as a result of one of my designs and you want to sell it for fundraising or non- mass produced purposes I probably won’t have a problem with that as long as you ask me first.
I would however have a problem with you selling my designs as your own. That would be really crap. And I would find out, so don’t even try it. If you want to make cross stitch designs to sell I am always happy to help with how to do it. I would love to see more radical cross stitch designs out there for people to buy. There are WAY TOO MANY gross designs in the world.
Any questions, comments or suggestions, get in touch.
Advertising
I don’t do advertising, especially on my website. I fucking hate advertising. See the owl down the bottom of the page? So I write about stuff that’s ace ’cause it’s ace. If you think your stuff is ace and I should write about it then email me already.
