    Default New season of Downton Abbey

    Begins January 4th, 2015 here in the U.S. That seems like such a long way away, but we're halfway through this year already!

    I bought all 4 seasons and watched them over the course of a few weeks. I am totally hooked on this show.

    I can't stand that sleazy Thomas Barrow, someone should wipe that snarky look off his face.

    My favorite character is Violet, Lady Edith is wonderful also.

    I agree but the evilness that Barrow brings to the show, it would NOT have all the fascinating twist and turns. It will be interesting to see the paths that Mary and Edith along with their BIL take in season 5.

    Speaking of Downton Abbey....our local quilt store, the Sticthery in Howell,Mi., has a quilt made from the Downton fabric line that is just beautiful! I didn't care to much for the line, save a few of the fabrics but they brought it all together! Also while visiting in Delaware my family (all but me) went to the Downton exhibit all said it was a wonderful exhibit. It is at Winterthur Gardens.

    I'm hooked on the show too! Can hardly wait for season 5 to come out on DVD--I understand that this next season will show quilts on the beds -- and then you can go to the Andover website to get the patterns to make the same quilts. In fact you can get the free patterns now. When I was on a shop hop in Colorado I bought fat quarters of all the Downton Abbey fabrics and hope to get a quilt made from them. Who knows when that project will get done!

    PBS also did a program on the actual estate that it's location shots are filmed. It was very interesting. I am also hooked on the show.

    Yes, I think someone here mentioned this series and I started watching it halfway thru season 4. Well, I got hooked and found all 4 series in one box at Walmart so picked it up to watch from the start. Then I mentioned it to another lady online and her hubby ordered it for her to watch. Can't wait till January to start watching again.

    And for you ladies that watch Cedar Cove, it started back this month. I have a DVR so set it to record all my favorites and then watch them later fast forwarding thru the commercials. Can't get any better than that.
