I got this idea from Cathy's latest post. She made a few very nice looking trivets, and someone asked if the designs were "shareable"

Cathy admits that she got this design from someone else, and she did not want to share it with anybody for that reason.
I could get on Sketchup, and create the same design, or slightly alter it in about 30-45 minutes from the pictures that are on the internet, or from Cathy's picture.
My question is this:
"If I go to the trouble to re-design something, is this unethical for me to make, and/or share?"
