Interrupting My Blog for a Special Notice

 

This is my photo.

If you have seen this photo on Facebook or anywhere else,

my permission was not given for its use.

Imagine my surprise today when I saw this photo

 on a quilting group site on Facebook

with a link not to my blog, but to another quilting site.

I asked them to remove the photo or change the link to my blog post.

So far I have been ignored and this has not happened.

I am hoping it will soon.

I published this photo on June 17, 2019 in the following post:

One Pineapple ~ Two Pineapple 

I made these blocks for the

Pineapple Day Free Quilt Pattern @ Fat Quarter Shop

and shared some of my photos with Fat Quarter Shop for use on their site.

This photo was not one of them.

I am a small blogger affiliate to Fat Quarter Shop.

I have never given any other site permission to use any my Pineapple Block photos.

Fat Quarter Shop never published this particular photo

and I know how respectful and careful they are of other quilter's rights, 

so I know this photo had to have been stolen from my blog.

All photos and text on my blog are mine 

and may not be copied and used without my permission. 

I have changed the settings on my blog 

so that no one can right click on any of my photos 

and save them and use them again in the future.

I have also disabled copying my text.

Thank you to all of you who have always respected my right to own my own photos.

I will continue to enjoy sharing my quilty efforts

 and move on from this unfortunate experience.

Happy Quilting!
