Anna Griffin that is. I think it is a bad move for her as QVC have been out of crafting for too long. They have no expertise at all. I like Anna and watched her on The Craft Channel and have seen her shows on HSN. If she wanted to make her mark she should have chosen Hochanda or C&C. It seems to be easy to move from one channel to another- just look at Dali , Becky Seddon & Elizabeth Crafts , struggling to remember who jumped ship last from C&C to Hochanda- Heartfelt , Kathryn Sturrock? For me a lot of the attraction of watching is the demonstrator - Phill Martin is always entertaining.
I do like Anna and did buy something when she was last on QVC. The quality is really good but I find her products too 'flowery' and 'chintzy' for my taste. I do make cards and do scrapbooking but am lucky that there is a large craft warehouse near me so that's where I get my stuff from now.
Although she has a large following, I can't see her products lasting on QVC because they just seem besotted with selling over-priced handbags, clothes and Dyson hair dryers. I agree that Hochanda or C&C would be a better place to present her products.
