[CHAT] I posted here sometime ago about my first ever FO only to have it stolen and claimed as someone else’s on Facebook 👎🏻

Pretty upsetting, to be honest. 😞

I don’t have Facebook myself, but u/Caleew spotted this at a Cross Stitching group and sent it my way. How common is this? I imagine I should be flattered but it just makes me really sad. My entire life I’ve had to deal with people claiming credit for my work and, ffs, I just want it to end.

I’m glad that the pattern artist will get more recognition, but I HATE that MY BEAUTIFUL CAT is thrown out there like that and called someone else’s muse! The gal of some people!! 💀

Guess I’ll have to watermark my posts from now on. It sucks so much!
