Let's keep giving! You can now send any show in your library to a friend for free. In fact, you can send them to as many friends as you want. However, each person receiving the gift will only be able to see one Free show.
Have your non quilting friends watch the first 15 minutes of the story of Eleanor Burns. Does you friend need to see the art of David Taylor (406)? Do they love applique by Susan Marshall (203) or the quilts of Jinny Beyer (601)? If it's in your library, you can send it.
When watching a show, click the button that looks like this:

You will then send a quick email to your friend. They will sign in and watch the show. If they are already a Basic Member, they just login.
That's It! Give it a try. The Free gift is scheduled to end January 31, 2012.
