When I visited daughter in Washington I discovered they had FIVE quilt shows on Saturday mornings!!! WOW! Some I'd never seen before!!!
I've written to OPB and told them how disappointed I am -- and encouraging them to put shows on -- that this is a THRIVING business!!!! I'm encouraging all Oregon quilters to write to OPB and see if we can change their attitude!!!
Just had to vent.......... :-D
That always happens to me for any number of special interests of mine. Most of the promotions are national and the local pbs stations just pick the ones they think will do them some good in their own areas. Boo!
