Over the last several years there have been many concerns of copying patterns or using a clip art design to make patterns. Many people have said that real designers never copy an idea or redesign a current printed pattern.
This got me to thinking of many of the designers of today that recreate a vintage design. In your opinion,
1) Are these designers morally wrong for editing existing designs and
2) If two or more people recreate the same old pattern, are both just as guilty as each other for copying
3) If the redesign artist sells the old pattern as an original, would you purchase from this artist again
This is not directed at anyone, just a few thoughts.
