    In these wonderful days of 100 (or more) television channels to chose from and all manner of material (pun intended) on them, by gosh I think we should have an All Fabric channel. Now.........choose a time, it can be an hour or half hour and make up a name for your show, who would host it, (yourself or someone famous) and give us a rundown on the way the show would appear.

    My choice would be 1/2 hour, starting at 5:30pm, the host would be Rita Wilson (Mrs. Tom Hanks). I have no idea if she is interested in quilting, but she makes a nice appearance on camera. She would tell us what qualities good quilting fabric has, and show us the insides of actual quilt shops Throughout the United States. The show would be called "Follow Me to Cottonwood".

    Kathy Bates a la "Fried Green Tomatoes." She could instruct us on how to make a mood quilt, and show us how to park when the parking lots are all full. :D

    An all quilting/sewing channel would just be awesome. But it would also be nice for the Host to be eye candy....hmmmm. Maybe a different guy each half hour??? That way we could all see our favs....

    admin gets my vote. but he has to shave. and get rid of that thing in his mouth. it's disgusting.

    he can take us into the manufactures shops and show us what takes place.
    each manufacturer would show the newest line of that season with one quilt as an example. we could visit all over the world. silks in japan, poly in china, fine cottons in egypt, etc. if there's time, we could see fashion fabrics as well. it could fill a complete hour. and i should direct :lol: :lol: .

    My show would be a decorating or organizing show devoted entirely to sewing rooms and quilting studios - I could spend hours just looking at everybody else's space and trying to figure out what to do with mine. I don't care who hosts it, but a really good-looking guy would be nice! Since most quilters are female, I guess it had better be a woman and I don't care what she looks like!
