.......and I guess that's where most of the quilting shows are. I watch Eleanor Burns, MSCQ, thru YouTube.....there are snippet type videos of Love of Quilting, Marianne & Mary Fons tip type videos too. I know there are others that have subscription fees...haven't gone to any of those yet.

I can no longer get any of those shows; our PBS station was dropped from Dish; I really enjoyed watching Nancy and F&P. There are no others out there any more.

Exactly. I like free as much as the next person but they have to cover their costs some how.

That being said, if you subscribe to Love of Quilting, then you likely already have the patterns since most of them come from there. I usually record the show and then can go back through with the magazine in hand to follow along for hints or tricks to make it easier. I've also enjoyed the change up from the different hosts, different ideas and perspectives come with change.
