I still get F&P with the daughter Mary. Comes over a PBS station. Does the daughter get on anyone else's nerves?

Yes, that sounds great, quilting and sewing. Who would a person write to get the idea off the ground?

I still get Eleanor Burns Wednesday afternoon on DISH.

No Fons and Porter quilting for me either.
Where is Eleanor Burns on Dish I did a search but came up empty handed. Maybe a channel I don't get.

By the way...Where is Create TV? Is it on Dish??

Thanks a bunch.

Agree ... 5-10 years ago there was quite a bit to watch for quilting, sewing & crafts ... Simply Quilts, Carol Duval, Room by Room etc (Shari did realistic home decor sewing & some quilting)
Hard to believe there's so little prgramming, when Quilting is a $3+ BILLION DOLLAR industry, not to mention sewing and craft $$ !! Networks must think EVERYONE wants to see real estate, tacky remodeling or junking, auction & pawn shows 24/7. *I do like American Pickers, but the copycat shows are just silly. :roll:

Lets not forget about the 10 "Real housewives" shows and all the stupid reality shows that follow. Thats why I love saturday mornings when I can watch all of the old westerns like Sugarfoot, The Rifleman, GunSmoke, Big Valley, and all of the western movies afterwards. Ah how I long for the golden age of TV
