question??

i posted this on the other main site page, but i will post it here too...

I have been asked a question, And its a great question by the way.


Are we allowed to use purchased patterns, for our challenge entry??

And the answer to that is yes you may, as long as you are not going to sell your creation after the challenge... you may use anything that inspired you to create.... as long as its for personal use only.

I hope this answers your question ..............................Ax
