My pregnancy pillow sewing pattern that I designed in 2012 has had rave reviews. People in countries who cannot order pillows like these have especially told me of how they appreciate what a great pattern that this is. It has helped many mamas through their pregnancies when they didn’t have another option.
Sadly though, the makers of a similar pillow have accused my design to be too much like theirs. Not that the pattern itself is a problem, but that I am “encouraging people to infringe on” their said patent. I want other wahms to feel free to sew any of my designs to sell without worry of infringement. Also, as a wahm myself, I absolutely do not want to be in a business rivalry, so I need to make a few modifications to my design.
I will look into this issue further, but for the time being, the current pregnancy pillow pattern will be retired as of July, 2013.

Oh whatever, how much whiner can they get, seriously? Unless you took there pillow and made an exact replica then its not infringement. maybe make a squared like top that more resembles a typical pillow and keep the bottom rounded?
I have a new design drawn up, but need the time to put it together, test, and photograph. It might be available in the upcoming months, so watch! 🙂
I just found your site, and was so excited to download the pattern and get started. So sad it's not available now! If you have a chance to contact me directly, perhaps you'd be able to share it privately?
