<p>Since this is a sewing community geared toward people sewing for themselves, there is no encouragement for mass marketing/reproducing. You aren't breaking any laws on the USA side. </p>

<p>I will say one thing its made me do is look at patterns I would never have given a second thought to previously, all because of the technical drawings.</p>

I agree, I don't see any kind of morally problem here. Hopefuly it will not be a problem, it is such a great source for insperation!

<p>We'll just have to see. Considering that I provide links back to the original garments (for folks to buy if they wish), there's really nothing I'm doing that any fashion blogger isn't doing. But it's a valid point you raise. I can totally justify MTL because it's not about mass producing rip-offs. Steal this look features, I believe, are far more offensive -- encouraging folks to buy cheaper knock-offs of designer garments.</p>

<p>I read a little about the Ana White incident. She chose to remove the images herself to avoid any headaches. Tech folks weighed in that she was in "fair use" limits. I would think that TSW would be protected as well. </p> I really like this feature, b…tag:circle.sewweekly.com,2011-07-11:6365347:Comment:662642011-07-11T17:10:43.633ZNora Zielhttp://circle.sewweekly.com/profile/NoraZiel
I really like this feature, but I just have to ask are you sure that you can't get in legal trouble about it? The pattern sellers sure won't object to the free adverting but using the images of dresses might be a problem. <a href="http://ana-white.com/" target="_blank">Ana White</a> had the same problem with a website that provided plans to build your own funiture that looked more or less like Pottery Barn funiture and had to remove all images from her side. <br/>

I just have to say I am adoring the Make This Look feature, I log in a lot just to see what gorgeous items have appeared. I am definitely planning to make a good deal of them! Thank you so much!

I am loving all of the MTL posts! It totally has me inspired to push myself into making clothes based off of things I've seen in some of my favorite stores but just can't justify buying.
