It's really REALLY annoying when you do something nice and someone takes advantage of you. I learned earlier today that someone is selling my FREE Phoebe bag download on their website. Yes, selling my pattern. Which is already free. To say I'm pissed about it is an understatement. I just don't understand how these people think they can get away with something like that? I've already emailed them with no response. I suppose I can complain to blogger - you can too, if you'd like.
I'm not the only one. Go check if out for yourself: http://lacreationdujour.blogspot.com/p/grilles-broderie-1-euro.html
Pretty disgusting, eh?
If you translate what they have on the sidebar is says something to the effect of their getting patterns from all over the world and if you want to know who the designers are then send them am email. WTH? They seem to have translated the directions in the patterns to French, but no matter, I state clearly that my patterns are not to be altered. In my book, translating and republishing is altering. Of course this is above and beyond the fact that they are STEALING.
Thanks to all of you who emailed me to let me know. I"m glad that y'all have my back :)
**Update - the site has been taken down and the owner emailed me offering to pay for the patterns that were sold.
