I have been watching the 2010 series with Mary and Maryann. I like Mary she is a beginner like me and gives some good advice. Maryann always was a chatterbox and Liz had to slow her down.
Like Mom, like daughter. My PBS station carried 3 episodes and now does no thave them. Bummer! Francesrose

Mary tends to say uhhu or mhhhh too much!! I agree it must be nerves. She is a good quilter to learn from. being from the Younger generation she is brings some fresh perspective on quilting.

I asked the same question when I was in Winterset, Iowa in July. The clerk told me Fons and Porter was sold and Liz had moved to Texas to be near her Grandchildren. Karen from Grant, Iowa

I love their magazine, but I never liked the show enough to follow it.

For those who do not have quilting shows in your area, (like me), there is QuiltersTV.com online. You can watch a show by different quilters listed, and you can watch it any time you want. And it is free!! There is another site also, but I have forgotten the name. Maybe someone else knows the site. Anyway, when you really need a "quilt jolt", you can try there. I know Fons and Porter has their shows online on their website (for a fee). Hope that helps!
