International Quilting Weekend and TV shows

This popped up on one of my lists so enjoy the weekend watching quilting TV!

“In honor of International Quilt Day (March 17, 2012), The Quilt Show (www.thequiltshow.com), will "open" all of its shows from the first nine series--that is, from show 100 through show 913--for the entire weekend of March 16 –18. This means that—for three special days—everyone will have the chance to view these 117 shows, for FREE.”  Please feel free to share this information with all of your friends. It's a fantastic opportunity to enjoy three days of learning and fun without leaving your home…all for free.”
