Gotta love Eleanor Burns!

All of her shows can be watched on her website, she has them all available there to watch, going all the way back.
I think I have a VHS tape of a show where she shows a lady who helps her, sweeping the scraps up and her comment is "I bet you thought I just throw them away, didn't you?" She is great..I taped many of her shows + others from PBS when I had TV.. have some of her books also..LOL

I got to spend today with Eleanor in Melbourne, took her Magnolia Bud quilt class. She is a great teacher and so down to earth. She autographed any of her books for us and had a photo session. The quilt went together so nicely (or should I say the blocks) and I hope to finish the quilt in the very near future. I also got to see Eleanor in Houston last year at both a mini trunk show and a demonstration of one of her rulers. She has so much energy.

I love El... she is so down to earth. I have learned a lot from her. Jenny Doan is the QUEEN of pre cuts and her whole family is so talented that they just gush the happiness of quilting. A great day for me is watching videos of the how to make quilts whether I have any wine or not.

I would watch Fons and Porter for designs, then go hunt up eleanors method of doing the same thing cause it was invariably easier to do Eleanor's way.
I hope one day to meet her, she truly is an inspiration. She reminds me of that Auntie that everyone wants to have
