If Mary Fons hadn't agreed to do the show, her mom, Marianne was't going to do the show at all after Liz Porter left. Liz retired to spend time with her grandchildren and to focus on her knitting patterns. Fons and Porter has a knitting magazine too. Mary Fons is a hit with the younger quilters. She has a quilt magazine, Quilty, which is written for the new quilter.
