Does any one else not get quilting shows on PBS?

There are no quilt shows on my PBS either. I watch at

http://www.quilterstv.com/

http://www.quiltinaday.com/

The selection doesn't change very often, but they are good background noise while I'm sewing.

I tried that but I live in the country and cannot get cable or high speed so it takes forever. The only thing I get is Hughesnet so I might try. It's a little much just to watch qnn. Thinking about it.
I have Ch 345 but Eleanor is on it maybe once a month.

Each PBS station chooses and pays for their own programming. You can call and request shows and pledge support during support drives.

I have sattelite but no shows on anything but CH345 . Oh well, I will request it on PBS for what good it will do. Then save up to have HUghesnet put on my sattelite and then cancel internet and my home phone. that will make up the cost.

My next suggestion is to ask if your library can do inter-library loan. In Illinois, nearly every library is linked to a computer sharing system. I just went on our library system and looked for quilting videos. There are many available by Eleanor Burns and several others both on VHS and DVD. If your library is part of a system, you should be able to get all the videos you want.

One of our PBS still shows all but Kaye Woods on Saturdays... the other used to show several but now they are hit and miss, I liked it better when I knew when they would be aired.

We get a few on ours. I never know if I will off work the days they air so I DVR them and watch them when I have time.
