I support this petition. I love Simply Quilts on HGTV and DIY. In fact, I wish you would re-air the programs every evening...perhaps 10:00pm Pacific Standard Time so those of us who work during the day can stay in tune with the latest methods, ideas, tools, etc. Thanking you in advance...quilting is an art form and so important to the American way of life.

Frankly this is one of only two programs I find interesting on HGTV. It is heavily weighted to home decorating and other programs. I'd like not only to see Simply Quilts remain on the air but to ADD quilting/fabric design programs. Without new shows, I will stop watching HGTV.

Simply Quilts is Simply Outstanding. Alex Anderson is an incredible host who brings out the best in her guests, some of whom would not be able to provide their invaluable insights without her guidance. The quilting community is a multi-billion dollar industry; not only should you reconsider retaining Simply Quilts, you should be expanding your market to include other quilting programs.

I support this petition. I first got the quilting bug five years ago when I happended across Simply Quilts. I watch the show religiously and I have learned so much from Alex and her guests. They are such an inspiration.Please HGTV, you do such a great job bringing us programs that help us to be better decorators, gardeners, and homemakers. Keep up your high standards and give us what we enjoy. In fact I would like to suggest more quilt shows, i.e. Quilt in a Day and Love of Quilting. Let's keep HGTV as one of the best channels on cable.

I support this petition. The ideas that have been shared on Simply Quilts have developed into great projects for me. Because of the commericals for the APQS longarm machine, I have purchased one. The industry of quilting is a multi-million dollar business and I believe HGTV is making a huge mistake by cancelling Simply Quilts.

Lisanne Johnson said 12/21/05, 12:02 am (verified)
Simply Quilts is vitally important to the quilting community as the premier show available. It would be a travesty to see it discontinued to make room for less-appealing shows. HGTV, headquartered in beautiful east Tennessee, should have more allegiance to the heritage and tradition of it's viewers. I hope HGTV will seriously reconsider their decision.

I watch the quilting show in the morning and other programs late evening if you take her show off will not watch your station at all. This show is a help to everyone that quilts or wants to.
