I learned on another thread about the Eleanor Burns Quilt in a Day show on tv. Found it on the RFD channel (345 on my DirecTV), Wednesday at 2:30 (not sure how often it's on but I set my DVR to record all of them).

I also get Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting on NY21 (a public tv channel, Channel 21 on my DirecTV) Thursdays at 3 pm.

Are there any other shows we can look for? Please give all the information you have (network, channel on your tv, day & time).

It's true that you can watch some of these online at their websites.

Sewing with Nancy does some shows about quilting. It's on my local PBS station.

You can see parts of Simply Quilts at HGTV.com. BOOOOO HGTV for taking that off.

I have Dish TV and don't seem to find any of the quilting shows on tv now

I think Simply Quilts got too expensive for the network...and Alex and Ricky decided they could make more money on the internet, charging for their videos on there. Anyway, I sure miss that show!! :thumbdown:

Fons & Porter in our area is on ValleyPublic TV on Saturday mornings at 8:30. However, we only get to see 3 in a row, and then they do fund raising for 3 weekends and it gets bumped. I don't like that they do that. I love that show, and I miss it when it's not on.

I do get Sewing with Nancy, and it's on a different station - don't recall which one. It's on at times I am not at home, so I record.

Quilt In a Day is on the Catholic station here...isn't that weird? I also have to record that one, as it's on during the day.

Woohoo !!! Thanks for mentioning about RFD. Eleanor comes on at 11:30am Wednesday here. How cool is that?

Both America Sews Creatively and America Quilts Creatively. They both have quilt segments.

Lap Quilting with Georgia Bonesteel is another one.

Quilting Arts

Kaye's Quilting Friends

Martha Pullen has a show too, lots of heirloom, but also quilting too.

I watch all of these on my local PBS channels.

I get 250 channels on DishNetwork....and I just found the RFD channel -- #231!!! (in my area) I went to their website and pulled up the channels, found RFD, and it gave two #s -- 9398 and 231. I got it on 231!! I also have learned a lot from www.quilterstv.com....THANK YOU!!!!!

F&P's show has been listed on my DirectTV on a public broadcast channel but when I go there its a woodworker's shop! Darn! I don't get a Ch 21.
