    You can go onto PBS and look or download their schedule (I do it when Downton Abby is on), but also it is on RFTV sometimes.

    I record every single sewing show I can, and love Fons n Porter so much! They show some of the prettiest projects, but when Mary gets with her daughter, oh my, I have to turn the volume all the way down. They are like 2 magpies half the time...makes me nuts! LOL!

    For those who don't care for Mary, I think she's come a long way in being on TV. It's just diff. when you're used to seeing somebody else in her place but I've come to really enjoy her. I like how she talks about what she's learned from her mom.
    I didn't used to like Mary either but she has grown on me. She has her own show, which may be available only online, called "Quilty" which is really geared toward beginning quilters. Lots of good information.

    I really miss Liz. I was glad to see her again and hope that she sticks around for a few episodes! I have a hard time with Mary and her quirky faces and overacting!

    I enjoyed watching the interaction between Mary and Liz. It was a good 30 minutes.

    This was my first time watching Liz. She is a breath of fresh air - no constant smiling and laughter as she spoke. Learned quite a bit from her.

    I miss when they were together. Not crazy about the Fons women.

    PBS pays for those shows and if there isn't enough support they drop them and yet in our area they kept all the old reruns of Victory Garden and Hometime and all those other woodworking shows. Just this last year they brought back Sewing with Nancy, Martha PUllen, Fons & Porter, It's Sew Easy, a knitting show and a craft show. No telling what the next year will bring.

    I prefer Liz also. Mary is condescending to her mother.
