How many shows are in a year membership?

[Lynn K.]

I want to know how many so I can decide whether to join or to buy them separately. It also seems that some of the shows are not available for purchase because the numbers aren't consecutive. There are some numbers missing. What are other benefits that you find desirable? Thanks, Jan

There are two shows a month. I have signed up each year and love the shows so much I then got the DVD's when they came out--lots of inspiration there. I love the member's blog and forum. The search option is also great. I am not sure what the star members get that is different than what the other members get so I am not sure how to answer you.

Star members have many benefits above and beyond the shows. You get block of the month patterns and teaching videos (which is about a $90.00 benefit), my classroom - which is a set of fun and funky video blogs tackling several subject matter - in fact the video visit to P&B was originally created to be shown in there, but I decided to open it up to everyone. Let's see, search function, member blogs............We will soon be featuring short lessons from Jan Krentz ..... Patsy Thompson will have some special machine lessons for paid members.. it is important to understand that when you decide to become a star member, you get the show that is currently airing and then forward as new shows air, kind of like when you subscribe to a magazine. The bottom line is that we are like a magazine & we cannot survive without both advertisers and subscribers - OH yes - also 5% discount in the TQS Shoppe - think of it as guild dues that helps us bring in the best speakers in the world.......

I think I will do it. I loved the Melinda Bula episode and all of the episodes I bought. Thank you. Jan

I joined up. Thanks for the special pricing. Thank you Alex and Ricky that you do this site and the shows. I really missed Simply Quilts. And this is way better! Jan
