    Sewing with Nancy

    Not sure what channel these are on:
    Martha Pullen
    Knitting Daily
    Comcast in the Detroit area does not air these shows so I have to assume that the demand is not there for this type of programming.

    :-( :-( :-( :cry: :cry: :cry:

    I haven't read all the replies (just skimmed them), but has anyone tried www.quilterstv.com on your computer. I like it, especially the Billie Lauder segments. It has tons of other quilters doing demonstrations.
    Try it! You'll like it!

    My friends thought I was crazy recording Simply Quilts while it was on! I've got a collection of 150 or so of the shows saved on DVDs and love to have them to refer to.

    It's hard to say if it will be back on. Sometimes HGTV runs episodes on the DIY Network. They have hundreds of episodes, so they could use it anytime I guess.

    Kitsie, I just saw your picture on here. The quilt square you are holding is beautiful! Which pattern is that? It's beautiful! Dawn Payne

    I don't get KCSM, have found Martha Pullen and Knitting Daily on BYU-TV and PBS respectively. Sewing with Nancy and Fons & Porter also appear on PBS.

    As dvd became popular I thought I would transfer the taped simply quilts to dvd. :lol: not yet. I kept them cross indexed to be able to find what I wanted. The problem now is that I now have no vcr player in the sewing room.

    Quoting from above in ref. to public TV: "make them realize that there are people who want those shows to continue."

    Some of these shows are expensive and the money to pay for them comes mainly from public sources (donations, company sponsorships, etc.). Consider a donation to public TV to help pay for them.
