Re: [h-cost] Venting a bit: sourcing
go to the about button at the top of the page there's a contact me link at the very bottom of her bio/intro... she's a middle-aged lady from Jamaica, may be a good seamstress, and mean well, but not be very sophisticated about crediting and borrowing and stuff... IMHO a gentle approach might be a good idea, in case she is really a well-meaning on-line/copyright innocent I'm just a pollyanna: if she doesn't know better, I wouldn't want her slammed too hard. chimene On Sep 27, 2011, at 9:29 PM, Galadriel wrote: I was looking up notched collar drafts online just so I don't have to produce my own for a class I'm teaching and came across this site: http://www.pattern-making.com/men-notch-collar/ It really irks me that this woman takes her draft, charts, and diagrams straight out of Masaaki Kawashima's book (FUNDAMENTALS OF MEN'S FASHION DESIGN), doesn't credit him, and then puts her own watermark all over it like it is hers.

Oh now, don't I feel silly! Thanks for pointing me to the e-mail address, which I had missed. I did send her a kinder nudge, recommending she source each draft at the end of its page. Who knows if she will take advice or care? --Rachel ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
