It is interesting that Bernina dropped support of the program just as Liz "retired." Babylock stepped in, and I do like that machine as well. I never thought that Liz and Marianne were totally comfortable with the new Bernina 830. They hardly used the built in dual feed foot which would be essential for perfect piecing. Marianne and Mary seem more comfortable with Babylock. They are also getting more support from Babylock educator Pam Mashee too. Another interesting note: Liz Porter has three video classes on quilting (quiltclassroom.com) and she's using a BERNINA! Very interesting. nuf |
I truly enjoy watching Mary and her mom interact so well. I miss Liz also, but onward and upward. We no longer have any quilting shows on our local PBS or create channel, so I have none to watch now, so I guess I will have to buy more DVDs.

she retired and moved closer to her kids.

All these comments are so interesting, it would be nice if someone could find out what REALLY happened.

I have no idea ... hope she is not ill ... or they parted ways ??
I met them at Quilt Market in Houston about 10 yrs ago, they were so much fun to talk to, you felt like you'd known them forever They've been doing this for about 20 yrs, maybe she just needs a break - I know I would ! |

At least F & P is still on the air! What are we going to do for quilting shows when all these ladies retire if we don't have new blood coming in.

I heard that she wanted to spend more time with her family and is retiring for the moment. I don't know if this is true or not.

The info, I heard from a program she was on, at one time is. She retired, in Florida, and golfing, and living close to her grdkids. As for any quilting programs shes doing, I don't know.

In a recent show I believe they mention that Liz retired to Arizona!
