I’m seeing the same thing over and over and nothing new. And we all know there’s always something new in the quilting world! I can’t even watch old episodes of the show without paying. Whaaaat?

I record the show and then “watch” it at night so I can’t call my sister until tomorrow…I am so excited and happy to see you BOTH. Like for many others the show is not the same w/o you. I am so sorry but you cannot be replaced…it’s SO BORING without you. We’ve been praying for you Mary and praying for your return. It’s been GREAT to see your Mommy occasionally. Love ya Girl!

Love of Quilting “stand-ins” support you whole-heartedly – – it’s not quite the same though. I still support the show but miss you very much. There’s power in prayer so pray continually & trust our wonderful Lord and Savior. You’ll be in my prayers too.

I like many have lost interest in the show without you are m so sorry that you or your mother. The subs are okay, but just not the same. I watch the show just for the Tips, but it’s not the same. Good well soon and let’s get you back on the show. I love your bubbly personality.

I myself am fighting something with my health but no one has put a finger on it as yet so I do understand the helpless feeling we feel when we are unable to preform out daily tasks. I am so sorry to hear of your condition and do hope and pray that you will soon be feeling all better and on your feet for Christmas. You and your mom have become like family to us and my husband always says around 2-2:30 on an afternoon, go and turn on Fons and Porter you need to rest ): You two always brighten up my day and are greatly missed but thank you that the show still goes on but its not like when you are there, so relaxed and with a good sense of humour. We all love you and you will surely be on my prayer list. Take Care, relax is the best medicine and eat lots of spinach and kelp, Not too much kelp for that can cause thyroid issues. beet and those exotic extras ): All in moderation. When you are in the hospital you will have to ask for them here in Canada but in the US it may be different.

I, like Donna, do not watch much of the show any more except for the Tips. It just doesn’t seem much like “Love of Quilting” any more without the “Fons and Porter”… I have recently retired and getting back into quilting full force. Hang in there and get better! Looking forward to seeing you back up and about, and on the show soon!!

I have missed you on the show and was wondering what happened. , I do not watch the show much anymore because they don’t have your Enthusiasm. I do enjoy seeing your mother on the show but it’s not the same when you are not there too! I will keep you in my prayers.

I was searching on you tube for how to cut fabrics and your “my quilt” video popped up so I took a look and loved that “Washington” pattern. To make a long story short, I quickly tried to find the pattern for it and had so much difficulty until I came upon your blog. and found out that you were having health issues. I am so sorry to hear that. Actually, I too have been losing blood and do not know where from. It is a quandary. I too have done many tests, have had the panic attack in the MRI machine, but the technician calmed me down and I went ahead with the test. I don’t know what else to do either. My hemoglobin fluctuates from 7.3 to 11 and I am not your age I am 71. Quite a few years ago I went on your Caribbean cruise with my redheaded friend Marie. You and your Mom were there and we had so much fun. We truly enjoyed the sewing and still have the quilts we made and the plastic bags with the red binding you gave us. Marie and I approached your table and took photos with you and your mom and a few other ladies. Mary, I wish you the very best and hope and pray that you’re up and around soon. You and your mom and others are an inspiration to many of us who really love to quilt. Take care of yourself sweetie and God Bless you and your lovely family.

Use your sense of humor. Try Milk of magnesia, (over the counter) my husband’s wife had a stomach and the skin was raw. The nurse treated it with milk of magnesia and next day honey. Her hubby, my hubby now uses it on rashes. Clears them up fast! Best wishes. Love you and your attitude. PS I am the lady that said grow your hair many years ago. Lol
You looked so pretty with longer hair! Love and best wishes Claudia

Canada is just now showing the 2900 series on PBS and I am missing your “presence” on the show. Just wanted to let you know how much I have learned and enjoyed the episodes over the years.

We would love to see you up in Calgary if your adventures lead this way. The Canadian Rockies are therapeutic!

I just watched your last quilty video and it was great. Love the “love” behind quilts. They are the songs of fabric.
Wish you well in health and future creative projects.
TIme for me to stop typing and start stitching.
Stacy
