I support this petition. Please do not cancel Alex Anderson's Simply Quilts. Her show is so informative and I have learned so much from watching every day about quilts from the past and innovative ideas for the future of quilts. I have many friends that watch this show as well and we are always talking about what we saw on the show in our quilt group. This show appeals to women and men of all ages. Yes, men do quilt, in case you didn't know. Watch the show and you'll find out what you didn't know about quilting techniques. You have the ability to prevent a huge mistake from being made. Again I say, PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL SIMPLY QUILTS.
I support this petition. I used to have HGTV on all day, but you've cancelled most of my favorite shows, and have succumbed to the extreme/challenge fad. Simply Quilts is just about the only reason I have left to watch HGTV. Please don't ignore those of us who have been with you from the beginning.
I support this petition. This show is the start of every day for me..I tape it so no chance to miss one! I have learned so much from this show and Alex..PLEASE don't take it off the air..if anything, add more shows of this calibur!!
I support this petition. I began quilting because of this show. It was as if Alex and her guests were right there with me. I tape everyday while at work so I can watch in the evening. How many more home dec shows does the public need. This show provides a valuable service in carrying on the tradition of quilting.
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is the reason I began quilting. It has taught many of us new tips, tricks, and wonderful ideas and designs used for making quilts. Quilting is an art. It needs to be passed from one generation to another. Simply Quilts helps that process, especially when there are no quilt shops or guilds close enough to join. We pay for HGTV coming into our homes. If there is nothing on HGTV that appeals to me, why should I continue to pay for it ? I won't !!
I support this petition. As a new quilter I have learned so much from a very informative show. Please keep Alex on and take off some of the other shows that run several times a day.
I support this petition. Simply quilts is a unique program on HGTV. It keeps the quilting community informed of the newest trends and techniques as well as introducing the art of quilting to designers, decorators, artists--the public at large. Quilting is a big money business and shows like Simply Quilts promote sales of books, tools, fabrics, etc. You would be doing your network and your viewers a disservice to cancel. We do not need another home dec program that is simply a rehash of another home dec program.
I support this petition. Alex is a gifted teacher, and has taught her viewers so much. Please keep this show on the air - it is my favorite show, and I really believe that Alex continues to learn and pass on her skills and those of her guests in a "doable" manner.
I support this petition.Simply Quilts is a show that brought me to your network. It is absolutely the best quilt show being aired, there is something for all quilters in all walks of life. Please keep Alex on the air.
This program has some of the best quilting information that I've ever seen. I've learned so much about quilting from Alex Anderson. It's very dissapoinging that you would take it off the air. This is definitely one of the upper eschelon programs on HGTV.
I support this petition.
I have been a guest on Simply Quilts (#509). SQ has been a valuable asset to quilters everywhere (especially those in areas without a LQS for classes). You would not believe how many responses I personally have received soley due to that appearance.
There are too few quilting specific shows of quality available out there. SQ IS one of the best. Please keep SQ on the air!

I support this petition. Simply Quilts anchors my viewing of HGTV for the remainder of the day. It is hard pressed to believe it doesn't draw a wide enough audience to continue to be profitable for HGTV and the show's sponsors.
This is one of your best shows. Many moms, grandmoms, greatgrandmoms, and grandchildren have learned the great American Art of quilting from this show. Very few stations have the forethought to put longstanding American utilitarian as well as contemporary art forms on their network. Quilting in America dates back for centuries and is a very important artform today. "Simply Quilts" is the only educator in this area as well as teaching many quilt techniques found today. I watch this show everyday and only because of this show watch some that come before and after. Big loss for you to cancel the show.
I support this petition. Please keep Simply Quilts on HGTV. My husband and I both watch the show and it is pretty much the only show we watch together. He has even taken a sewing class because of the show.
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is simply the best quilting show on the air. It is interesting and informative, teaching many new techniques & helping quilters to hone their skills. It is one of the few shows on HGTV that I watch, and video tape, all the time. Please keep it on the air.
I support this petition!!! I record this program so I won't miss a show. I have learned so much because of this show. Living in country doesn't allow me to take classes so I count on this show to help me improve my skills.
I support this petition. This is one of the best quilting shows on the air. Simply Quilts is where I learned to quilt. What better represents "home" in HGTV than a quilt?
I support this petition. In addition to this being a very good and informative show, your advertisers should realize that a very big audience that supports them will no longer see their name on a regular basis and with the number of competitors out there for our fabric and sewing needs, if we arent seeing them, then we wont think to buy from them.
I support this petition. Keep Simply Quilts on the air. It is entertaining as well as informative, innovative and brings the world of quilting to quilters and others as well.
I support this petition. There aren't many quilt shows on TV anymore. Let's try to keep Simply Quilts on HGTV; they must not realize how many quilters there are out in TV land.
I fully support this petition. There are so few quilt shows on now and Simply quilts is one of the best. There are too many decorating shows on now. Cut back on some of those. Please don't cancel this show!!!
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is one of the very few shows I watch on HGTV. It is the one quilting show that provides the newest techniques and has allowed me to expand my quilting horizons. Please keep Alex on the air.
I support this petition - I think Simply Quilts is one of the best shows on your network - there is always something new to learn in the quilting world and Alex is great doing just that!
Please do not take off such a wonderful show. I watch it here in Australia and just love it. So informative and great to see all the quilts and how to make them.
HGTV is going to lost a very important show if they cancel Simple Quilts. I don't watch it live due to the time 5:30AM, but do Tivo it and watch it later. There are VERY few shows I enjoy on TV. There are not many Quilt Shows and this will be a sad lose in the quilt world. HGTV is mading a BIG mistake and I can't believe they want to take this important show off the air. What is the problem? I know at my quilt guild meetings someone is always sharing something they saw on Simply Quilts...I don't understand how they can have all those channels with sports,etc& nothing
interested like quilting. I support this petition IF it keeps Simply Quilts on the air...DH
I support this petition. This is to good a show for it to be canceled. Our Quilting world needs all the information it can get to get new people interested in Quilting.
I support this petition.
Alex has been one of the true inspirations in the quilting industry. She has provided so many different types of quilting methods and teachers. It would be a true shame to let her show discontinue!
I support this petition as this show is a good educational show for those of us who can not get to quilt classes. Please don't take this off the air!!!
I support this petition. HGYV has 1 quilting show and all these other shows about decorating your house. Who cares about them? I would rather spend my time watching a quilt show where I will learn something. Alex Anderson and her guests are wonderful and a great way for quilters to learn a new technique or even refresh an old one. Keep Simply Quilts on HGTV. You are missing a bet by not keeping on this show.
I support this petition. There should be more quilting shows on tv. I also love "quilt in a Day" but our local PBS channel no longer carries it. Regular tv shows hold no interest for me. PLEASE don't cancel one of the few shows I like.
