What happened to Liz Porter?

I have no idea ... hope she is not ill ... or they parted ways ??
I met them at Quilt Market in Houston about 10 yrs ago, they were so much fun to talk to, you felt like you'd known them forever
They've been doing this for about 20 yrs, maybe she just needs a break - I know I would !

I was wondering the same thing. Not a huge fan of the daughter, but its probably because I got used to Maryann and Liz together.
As for the sponser ... nice to see someone other than Bernina. Baby Lock makes a good machine. A few of their shows were geared toward attachements that were Bernina attachments, and they failed to show alternate methods. If bernina wants a show ...call if the Bernina show .
Maybe the change could be a good thing. There was still good information but I sometimes found their methods to be lacking in newer techinique(s).

On a recent show they introduced their new sponsor as "Baby Lock"? I was amazed or maybe I was seeing things. Anyone else see that episode?

Last year, there were a number of shows with only one of them hosting... I thought maybe it was so they could each have some more free time...
I hope it is just for one season and then Liz comes back.

ON the Fons and Porter show this past weekend it was just Marianne and her daughter. They announced that Liz was taking some time off to be with her grandchildren. They also introduced Babylock as their new sponsor for this 1600 series of shows.
