    In the latest Fons and Porter "Love of Quilting" there is an article about her and the quilt. She has retired and is enjoying her grandchildren and quilting.

    I heard the same thing. Was just tired and needed to spend more with family.

    I quit watching the show when Liz retired and they brought the daughter on. Don't care for her at all. She's just too "cute". Like to buy her for what she's worth and sell her for what she thinks she's worth.

    Liz moved to Austin, TX.
    She has been back on the show 2x to my knowledge....episodes "Churn Dash" and "Milky Way" of the 2000 series. She mentions retiring to Austin on both episodes. Both GREAT episodes btw

    P.S. Here in central Idaho, "Love of Quilting" airs two different episodes every Tue. at 9:30am and 1:30pm on PBS. Can't wait for the new series!

    Liz retired and is living in Texas. She does appear on the show occasionally. I do miss her. Liz and Mary Ann had a real chemistry. But I still watch the show. It is interesting to see Mary growing in her quilting abilities.
