I'm in the minority but I like Mary. I find Mariann to be a bit too stiff at times. I'm a rather novice quilter and started out watching episodes online of Quilty. I like that Mary brings in some new ideas also. Drives me batty to watch them do HST the old way. Jenny Doan has a much easier way to do them. Truthfully, I'm a much bigger fan of Jenny than Fons & Porter but I do still watch F&P when I get the chance
