Would love to know what others watch.
I also watch Elenor Burns. Shes a HOOT.
I love Eleanor Burns too. I'd love to attend one of her classes. Thanks for the info - I guess I'm fortunate to have several channels on TV including BYU but gotta check out the online version.

I joined quilters club of America and really like it. There are tons of free patterns, blogs, Jo-Ann extra discount, Easy Quilts subscription and included subscription to Quilty. Good deal for me.

I have to confess I have become addicted to The Quilt Show because I like the presentation, and will probably renew my subscription this month. I have also purchased some past shows so I can watch them whenever I want. However, I have noticed lately that the tutorials have got shorter and I suppose less "instructive" and the interviews seem over indulged and take up too much of the show. There is not enough about new products and how to use them and whilst it is interesting to see some of the locations, less is more. Maybe I should put these comments on the their forum.

We have several quilters in our area who subscribe to QNN and they love it. You get alot of benefits for that $35 a year besides the quilt shows such as free magazine subscriptions, discounts on stuff and such.

I'm planning on doing so but just haven't yet.

I think for $35 a year it's more than worth it.

Yes there is free stuff online but nothing compares to doing QNNTV.COM..... that's only $2.91 a month.

I subscribed to QNN and it included a subscription to the National quilters Association and their newsletter. I like it and they are always adding new shows. TV provided nothing for the quilters and crafters. I think they are really missing a valuable group to viewers.

I subscribe every year since the beginning and I love to watch them. However I don't have any magazine subscriptions.

Craftybear,

Were you a research librarian or detective in a former life? :lol: Your contributions have really enriched the QB. Thank you!
