Pattern Use & Copyright Policy

Pattern Use, Copyright & Maker’s Policy

I’m so happy you’ve chosen one of my patterns! Before you start stitching, here’s everything you need to know about how you can use Ric Rac patterns fairly (and kindly).

 For Personal Use

All Ric Rac patterns are for personal, non-commercial use.
That means you’re absolutely welcome to make toys, dolls, and softies for yourself, your friends, and your family. Print the pattern as many times as you need, sew at your own pace, and enjoy every stitch.

Selling Finished Toys

You’re very welcome to sell small quantities of finished toys made from Ric Rac patterns — craft markets, online shops, and charity stalls included!
All I ask is that you please credit the design with a quick note such as:

“Made with a Ric Rac sewing pattern”

Please keep it small-scale and handmade. These patterns are designed for individual makers, not mass production or factory use.

What’s Not Allowed

To comply with copyright law, you cannot:

• Copy, share, or redistribute the pattern or instructions

• Sell or share the digital files or printed templates

• Rework, modify, or reproduce the pattern for resale

• Mass produce any items from the patterns

If someone admires your make (and they will!), send them over so they can grab their own copy.

 Questions?

If you’re unsure about anything or want to double-check how you can use a pattern, I’m always happy to help.
Drop me a message through the contact page or email at jodie@jodiericrac.com and I’ll reply as soon as I can.
