Kimberly,

    My classes are geared towards learning specific techniques. If a
    specific design is used, it is one that it will help the student
    gain practice with a technique. I will teach designs in the advanced
    workshops that I know work... that is I make money with it. If a
    student wants to copy my design...go for it! I encourage it! It
    serves as jumping off point for them. Most move on to their own
    vision in short order as their skills improve. Then I get to learn
    from them! 

    I have a great friend who engages in the wonderful sport of "Show and
    Tell". We look at what the other has come up with then run off to our
    benches and expand on the idea. The result is that we are both
    getting better at what we do.
