I am no expert, but I think as long as you are not trying to sell it as your own work, you are o.k.

Nearly there! Just got to do her right shoulder and both arms (and of course backstitch). Next update will be the finished piece. :dance:

Well here is the finished piece everyone, the lettering was from Betty Barnden's "The Encyclopedia of Cross Stitch Techniques". On the bottom left corner of the fabric you can see a little cross stitch this was a present for my little sister incorporating designs from Cross Stitcher's "Vintage Style" though the border was entirely my own.

Here is a finished photo of my little sister's present:
