I support this petition. Please keep Simply Quilts and consider showing it at a later time in the North Carolina area. We only recieve it on HGTV through Dish Network (you do not get DIY until the highest purchase level).
I support this petition because I watch Simply Quilts every morning and have developed the love of quilting through this program. My mother, who's last efforts were the church quilting circle just passed away. I'm so inspired by this show to continue with this heritage. Please keep the new episodes coming.
I support this petition. Alex Anderson has been such an inspiration to all quilters. Her show for me has taught me so much and made my quilting better, plus has expanded my quilting horizons and helped me try new and different things. Her show during the day for me is a break from my hectic day. It will be a sad day in the quilting community if you don't keep this wonderful quilting show.
I support this petition. Please rethink this position. There are a lot of people who get an education from this program. There are a lot of self-taught quilters who learn to quilt quicker and better.
I support this petition.
The only two shows I watch on HGTV are Simply Quilts and the Carol Duvall Show. If you drop SQ I will be much less likely to even watch HGTV. Please don't cancel SQ.
I support this petition. I have always had the greatest regard for HGTV - so many wonderful programs! But this cancellation may cause me to re-think my feelings.
I support this petition.
I watch the show daily, and it is the only TV program I consistently watch and record if I cannot see it at the time it's shown.
I support this petition. It is too bad that you can't see that you have a good show and still keep all of the home improvement, garden, etc shows on when most people don't really care about them. Remember that there is another segment of people out there that do care about retaining the old values of our forefathers like sharing the knowledge of sewing and sharing and fellowship around the quilting frame. Please remember those of us that are trying to keep the family values intact. Thank you.
I support this petition. Please keep Simply Quilts on the air. With the baby boomers retiring many of us will be very dissappointed if the show is canceled. Please reconsider.
I support this petition. Please don't cancel this show. How else are many of us going to learn to quilt if our mother didn't teach us. Don't cancel a good show.
I support this petition. I don't watch Simply Quilts on a regular basis, but every chance I get, I do watch it. I just wish that the show could broadcast an episode either in the evening or on the weekend. Please continue the show (with new episodes).
I support this petition. It is a shame that good quality shows are being cancelled and thrown by the wayside. Shows that promote education, encouragement, diversity, self esteen, sharing, family, compassionate service, consideration for others need to be in America's lives. Especially with the unsurity in this world. I encourage HGTV to rethink their decision and keep Simply Quilts in it's lineup along with their other wonderful shows. We are the consumers and have great power as such. Please consider those of us who are trying to preserve the great things about our lives, families and country.
I support this petition. This is the one show that I consistantly watch on HGTV. It's an inspiration to experienced and newbe quilters everywhere. Please don't cancel this program.
I support this petition. I'm a new quilter and a faithful watcher of Simply Quilts. The information and techniques I learn are very valuable. Please keep this show on the air!
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is a wonderful program for all quilters. Simply Quilts is a wonderful program that inspires and educates quilters every day. The is no other program that provides the full spectrum of quilting.
I support this petition. Her program is very interesting and informative. I watch Alex Anderson every chance I get. I especially like meeting the new designers, etc. Please keep airing her programs.
I support this petition.
I have watched this program for years and it has been my tutor in quilting. Whenever I had a problem in my quilt, the answer seemed to show up in a week or so on Simply Quilts. I used to hand write all of the quilt block instructiions, now I tape the shows. I refresh what I have seen on the reruns, but look forward to seeing the new episodes.
Please keep the show on the air!!!
I support this petition.I can't believe you are doing this again.First,it was cutting Simply Quilts down to once a day, then it was cutting any new Carol Duvall's shows and now you are cutting any new Simply Quilt's Shows. You are making very foolish marketing decisions. The people with the money are middle aged people, not the youngsters. I used to watch your shows exclusively, but as much as I love Carol Duvall's, all those reruns make me not care if I miss one. Before, I would watch both avidly since one was new and one was old.Most of your other 1-3 yr. old shows are a waste of my time. I noticed they are marketed toward much younger people (I am 56). When I ask if the 20's-40's people I know watch HGTV (other than those 2 shows), they never watch you.I wonder where you do your research? You will be losing out on thousands of viewers, just as you lost so many viewers because of your craft show cuts. The younger people are working and raising families. They don't have the time to devote to these shows like the middle aged and seniors.
I support this petition. I have learned so much from Alex Anderson. Those of us who quilt need a show to guide us through different patterns and designs. Please, we beg you, do not pull the plug on this show. Thank you
I support this petition. I tyvo this program and watch it daily. So much good information is provided for customers of a very lucrative and growing 'hobby.'
I support this petition. I watch this program on a regular basis. I have two girls that are learning to quilt from this show and are very disappointed to hear that it will no longer show new shows. Please reconsider your choice the next generation needs good quality shows to watch to get them away from Disney.
I support this petition.
I tune into Simply Quilts. If I watch anything else on HGTV morning television, it's because I got interested during Simply Quilts. Period.
Come on now, we can get rid of another show on HGTV such as those what will a $1,000,000 buy in real estate. Most of us will never purchase a $1m home. We like the finer things in life, QUILTS!!!!
I support this petition. I work full time and I tape Simply Quilts and watch it at night with my husband. I think I should be jealous since my husband is in love with Alex Anderson. I was eager for my cable company to get HGTV. Once it became available you dropped Sandra Betzina now you plan to drop Simply Quilts. My reason for turning on your channel will be gone. I will also add my signature to a petition to my cable company to drop your channel in favor of a more interesting chanel.
I support this petition. I scheduled my radiation & chemo around this show when I had a malignant brain tumor 6 yrs ago & watched it this morning & learned something new. It has been vital to my growth as a quilter. PLEASE LEAVE A GOOD THING ALONE! Thank you.
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is the only HGTV show that I watch everyday. You need to keep this show and add more like it instead of all of the decorating shows.
I support this petition. I will cancel my HGTV if this show is not reinstated! I watch this show every day, as do most of my friends. It is the ONLY reason I subscribe to HGTV!!
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is one of the few quilting programs that covers all facets of quilting. There are few shows on quilting that have this much variety. It is one of the main reasons I subscribe to HGTV!
I support this petition. In a quilting group I attend, 20 out of 35 people watch Simply Quilts as often as possible. New quilters learn and more experienced ones get new ideas and information. It is informative, helpful and much appreciated.
I support this petition. While I enjoy the 'home' shows (decorating, building, selling, buying etc etc) Enough is enough! When HGTV began, one of the premises was arts and crafts. They have slowly dissappeared. Please reverse this trend !!
I started watching this program while I was living in Australia....a very lonely American and it was something that I looked forward to each and every day. I now watch it every morning that I can.....and when I can't, I tape it for viewing when I get home from work. I have learned so much from this show and I would hate to see it end. There is still so much to see and do with this show....keep it on the air and going strong. Take off one of your DYI shows instead.....or limit other craft shows.....but don't take this one off the air. Please.
I support this petition. Its because of this show I started to quilt. I am a very visual learner, and this show has shown me many techniques that a book alone can't do. Not only do I watch this show in the morning on HGTV-but again on DIY. Alex Anderson and her guests are a great inspiration to all quilters.
I support this petition. Simply quilts documents the evolution of quilting. My friends and I enjoy seeing what's new out there, as well as traditional work. Please continue this important show.
I support this petition.Most of us that watch this show have learned the majority of our skills from watching Alex. We have no other quilting shows in our area. Please rethink your decision.
I support this petition.
I am an independent quilt shop owner and instructor and have looked to Alex as a mentor in this industry. What a shame to cancel such a sucessful show!!!
I support this petition. MyFriends and I love this show!!!!!!!!!!!! I DVR all the episodes on HGTV and DIY everyday. then we get together and watch them during our guild meetings. I'd even like to see it shown on Saturdays and Sundays. Please reconsider!!!
I support this petition. Many of the HGTV progams are becoming stale because you show the same episodes over and over. However, Simply Quilts is one I never get tired of watching! You are going to lose viewers to DIY--me for one.
I support this petition. HGTV used to be my favorite channel, but recently has gotten so bizarre that Simply Quilts is the only show I watch regularly. What are you thinking???? The quilt world is a large world and spends a lot of money--that in itself should be incentive to keep SQ on the air!! I am very upset about this cancellation!
I support this petition. I watch HGTV and DIY for the sole purpase of watching Simply Quilts. If you take this show off, then I will no longer be watching either of these channels.
I support this petition. This is a great show that is meant for beginners as well as advanced quilters. If the art of quilting is to be passed on to future generations, this show needs to be promoted even more. Our younger generation needs to have role models such as Alex Anderson. Styles of quilting may change but basics don't.
I support this petition. I'm a beginning quilter and I love the many techniques and ideas that I have learned from watching simply quilts. If I'm not going to be home I tape the shows so I can see them later. If I'm traveling nothing happens until after I see simply quilts. PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL SIMPLY QUILTS.
I support this petition. Soon HGTV will be only home improvement type shows. Please remember the people who sew and craft. This is a source of income for many of your viewers.
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is a very professional program bringing quilters a wide variety of techniques. I have learned a great deal from this program. Simply Quilts is the "only" quilt show that I receive. Please save it for millions of quilters.
I support this petition. Simply Quits is an excellent product that is not only educational, informative but also interesting and entertaining. Please keep this variety in your broadcasting.
I support this petition. This program is the start of my whole day. Please do not cancel. It's content is a valuable resource for all members of the quilting community
I support this petition. Alex Anderson and the production staff of Simply Quilts does a wonderfully presented and very informative program. I plan my days off around this show and would tape it when I wasn't home if I had the capability. I won't have a lot of reason for turning to HGTV other than maybe NewYears day for the Rose Parade. Please keep this program on the air. There are not enough quilting related shows. If you must cut a show, cut a Makeover show.
I support this petition. Please reconsider and do not cancel this wonderful program!! I have enjoyed this program for several years. I agree we already have enough reruns!!
This program is a wonderful teaching tool. I tape it everyday. HGTV please rethink cancelling this show. It does so much for your station. I know I watch other programs because of Simply Quilts. Please rethink your position on cancelling this program. Thank you.
I support this petition. I watch Simply Quilts every morning; I was so disappointed when you removed the afternoon show and now you want to remove the show completely? Our cable company may as well remove HGTV from the offered stations as far as I'm concerned.
I support this petition. Without Simply Quilts the quilting world will lose a valuable source of information. So many of us rely on this program that it would be greatly missed. Please reconsider!
