    I still get it on PBS but have wondered where Liz Porter is. Is she ill or was there an explanation I missed? I use AT&T and am the SF area.

    I get on PBS, but I do think they may have changed their time slot.

    Same here because the season is over for now. It will come back later. Quilting Arts just came back...

    Yes. BYU has decided to show only their own 'in-house' productions. Too bad. I guess I won't be watching that channel anymore.

    Fons & Porter and also Sewing with Nancy was off for just a week in my area, but is back on. Hope it is the same in your area. Lois

    I wish I got Eleanor Burns on Create TV, because I don't, although I do have Fons & Porter, as well as Georgia Bonesteel from time to time, but that's it. I'm just glad I have a few tapes from way back when Simply Quilts was on, and love the 2 shows with Mary Ellen Hopkins - she's a hoot.

    your dish network must be different than mine. I only get Eleanor Burns on Wed night at 11pm central time. I get Fons and Porter, Sewing with Nancy, and America Sews from local PBS. I wish there was a channel for just quilting. Wouldn't that be wonderful??? well maybe not. I'd probably spend all my time watching tv and not getting anything done!! LOL
