Have moved to Hochanda - and Sheena too. This is a coup for Hochanda. I am sick to death of Tattered Lace on Create and Craft that's for sure. Create and Craft need to change gear and show something different and allow proper demonstrations. Please do not take on Dean Hochanda, let him stay where he is.
I have just got an email from Crafter's Companion and came here to post - you beat me to it FP!! Major coup, and a major blow for C&C I would say. Not a lot left there really - means even more flippin' Tattered Lace and TODO!!

Watched the various videos about it and Sara saying she is looking forward to working with Leonie. As long as the crafters are allowed to craft without silliness it should be good. Sara says she sees her job to instruct and teach techniques so let's hope they keep to it. It depends on whether people are seeing craft channels as a way of learning or a friend to have a laugh with a la Dean.When Michelle stopped demoing Serif on C&C I stopped watching as much as the woman who replaced her is not very good on digital crafting , only printing out! I don't need dies as I have my cameo and I have enough embossing folders already. Silhouette moved to Hochanda as well so there is little left for me on C& C. Dawn Wheeler who was a turn off on C&C is actually very interesting to watch on TCC. I have read elsewhere that C&C are getting a lot of new American crafting companies in which might tempt me to watch.
I suppose there are an awful lot of craft companies out there so in the long run it means more of them might get a chance in the spotlight - three channels should be able to bring quite a lot to us. It could be interesting. I do like it when they are given the chance to actually show something proper rather than a quick half attempt which I often think produces something that isn't that good!
I have avoided DW since she moved to TCC as I really couldn't watch her on C&C but if you think she is better now then maybe I will risk a peek!!

Just watched Sara's first show- the website went into melt down. There is a good deal in that if you buy a CC product you get the Freedom Club free for a month.Sara's demos were a little more 'oops' than usual because of the stress but it's obvious CC are going to be popular.
