Check your local PBS stations on DISH. In our area, 3 quilting programs are on Saturday mornings. I miss a lot of them, because weekends are busy. HGTV used to have many quilting programs, but they have gone by the wayside.

If you have high speed Internet you can watch a lot of shows online. Eleanor Burns and Kaye Wood have free videos on their sites. Quilters TV has a lot of free programs. Alex Anderson and Quilters Club of America have programs but you need a paid membership to view them. In my area there is Sewing With Nancy, Fons and Porter, and Quilting Arts on PBS.

Try "www.thequiltshow.com" with Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims. Alex use to host "Simply Quilts" on TV, but moved to doing shows in the internet. The site has heaps of great info too. Give it a go.

We have satellite TV too. but due to an accident from space (lightening ) we needed a new box and it came with another control, so now we each have our own and can change the stations when we want as long as he gets he wrestling on the week end and the cricket I don't mind.

When we got DISH they had several on DIY and some of those channels. Now they don't have ANY. All they do is tear up houses and rebuild them! As far as I know, the PBS station has a show has a couple. Oh and also, RFDTV carries Quilt in a Day, but here in OK, it comes on at around 2:30 am. Sometimes I record it or not!lol
