Just do a search and you'll find most of them online and you can watch at your convenience......

Thanks. That looks like a lot of good tutorials.

I think they took Alex Anderson and put her with Ricky Timms on QTV. We have Nancy but she's mostly reruns. Then there's Eleanor Burns. Funny, entertaining, but predictable. Occassionaly I see a show that I've never seen before and it seems like it might be a filler for some other show. I haven't seen an updated show without it being online in years. Sad thing is I don't have time to check them out and watch them and still be on here and get any quilting done. LOL

If you go to the HGTV link that lfw045 wrote you will find a lot of various links that have a lot of information.

Thanks lfw045...

Miss those shows too. They use to have shows that fit into our budget for remodeling not anymore. Kinda sad, don't watch it hardly at all any more.

Hmmm....it's been my experience that quilting is a DIY project. Isn't it???? :lol:

I have a hard time complaining about the home renovation type shows thay have now. See, back in the late 70's the man who would be my husband used to come over and we'd sit on the couch together and watch Bob Villa on This Old House. We ended up buying and calling our house, that no one else even looked at, This Ol' House

I like to think maybe somewhere these shows are the beginning of another young couple's dream.

We're old now, it wouldn't hurt to show sewing shows too.

Used to watch HGTV all the time. Now I never turn it on. I wrote to them with no avail. HGTV should go off the air. Unless they put shows on that were intresting and a learning tool.

I just emailed them and told them more sewing/quilting shows.

Oh......My......Gracious......Sakes!!! I can't stop laughing!!!! That was so funny soon as I read it. The part about "I am getting tired of tearing down walls and real estate shows"! My husband probably thinks I've lost it. I don't know, it just struck me funny. I am with you Phannie1. I agree! Thanks! for making me laugh.
