Remember that PBS nationally doesn't cancel many of the local programming....they only provide the programs. The local stations have to pay for the shows in order to show them...that's why they have their annual or semi-annual fund-raiser. If you want to get the shows back, work on getting sponsors for the shows...check with local quilt shops, quilt guilds, individuals who are willing to spend money to sponsor the shows and keep them on the air in your area.
