Ummmm.....  I think I disagree with you on this, Jean.  I
believe that if we buy a pattern, we are allowed to make it
for our own use, but not for any commercial endeavor.  We
could make a dress for ourselves from a pattern, for
example, but we could not produce a line of clothing for
sale based on that pattern....  (as if...! )
