    She used to be on our PBS network years ago and I watch her faithfully every Saturday morning until PBS moved on to something else. She was the best quilt teacher I ever had.

    At bought a bag of scraps thrown by Eleanor. LOL She is truly the Queen of Quilting. I have met her many times having gone to her Meet and Greet Dinner in Paducah for many years. Truly a genuine nice lady.

    All of her tv programs and more are on YouTube! Her block club videos are a hoot!-on YouTube........her patterns are perfect and if you follow her directions to a T, all those seams just nest beautifully.....I also have and use most of her rulers...make quilting so much more pleasant,

    Oh yes, she is wonderful. I've been watching her for years and years. not on here though, sad to say. she is good for beginners. cuts over sized and trims. good way to learn until you can do things better.

    Where do you find her show?

    I watch her on our PBS Wed. afternoons. They sometimes are reruns, but you will see something different. I was at Mountain Quilt Fest walking down a hallway,and you couldn't miss her Smile. I told her about my DD throwing the scraps over her shoulder, and how it was the last time she did that. Eleanor is a special person!!!

    I watch her on you tube. I love her stories about her
    Pennsylvania German upbringing. Her sister who retired recently (name escapes me at the moment) had a trunk show at Pocono Sew and Vac in 2016 and was also entertaining and fun.

    EB seems to be such a nice lady--I'm glad to hear those of you who have met her confirm that she is! My husband complains about her "kindergarten teacher" voice, but she's a gem.

    I watch it on Directv RFD channel, but they are old shows. Geri B says all of her shows are on YouTube.
