I support this petition. You have no other shows that offer quilters a venue. If you must have only one keep Simply Quilts. If veiwers have decreased I'm sure it is due to continuous repeats.
I support this petition.At my age and physical disabilities, I cant go to classes or to the fairs to take a class, this is the place I go to to learn something new There may be other shows bur not one showa the depth Carols' teachers do.
I support this petition. Even though I work, I make sure I tape this show. It's one of the few I really enjoy on HGTV. Please don't cancel it. Alex is one of the few who promotes the art of quilting on television.
I support this petition. This is the only show I see on tv that covers both traditional and innovative quilting. I became and HGTV fan because of Alex Anderson and Sandra Betzina.. now the last vestige of the sewing arts in in jeopardy. Please seek sponsors to continue this popular show.
I support this petition. I watch this show every day. If it were not for this show and Carol duvall, I would not watch HGTV at all. Please do not cancel Simply Quilts. I am so disappointed over the cancellation of Carol Duvall that camcelling Simply Quilts will stop my watching altogether. There is not another source of ideas, inspiration and technique available.
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is the only HCTV program that I watch on a daily basis. When it was on twice a day, I watched or taped it.
Alex is the best. She knows her stuff and makes all of her guests feel special. Please keep this program.
I support this petition. This is one of the few opportunities for quilters who do not have easy access to classes and quality teachers to help further this American artform. Please reinstate or do not cancel Simply Quilts.
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY SUPPORT this petition. i'm a working mom and this is my "escape". i have to tape it or watch it live on my days off. I always learn something new that i can use in my quilting pursuits. PLEASE don't cease providing this wonderful show! this sounds so sappy but i'm feeling that way cuz i don't wanna lose this creative outlet i can escape to for 30 minutes. thanks for considering this request.
I support this petition.
I watch Simply Quilts five times a week. Can't say that about any other show. Why bother getting HGTV if they don't update Simply Quilts.
I support this petition. This is the one of two programs that I tape each and every week day so that I can watch it when I get home from work. Quilt in a Day is the other one. Please do not cancel new programs.
I support this petition. Being a quilt shop owner I see many customers coming into the shop truly excited about what they had seen on Simply Quilts. This show is viewed by more of our customers than any of the other quilt shows and really stimulates their creativity.
I support this petition. I have watched this program since it stared and I tape it when I am not home so that I don't miss it. I have learned so much and learned new things from the repeats. please do not cancel this program
I watch HGTV mostly for Simply Quilts and Carol Duvall. Carol has already been cancelled, if you cancel Simply Quilts I will have very little reason to watch your station.
I support this petition. This show is a font of ideas for new techniques and building new skills in an age-old art. There is no other readily available TV source for learning from top flight quilt designers and artists. Please continue bringing this great show to us.
I support this petition. This is my favorite TV show. Alex presents the quilter with talented guests, lessons, and ideas. Please don't cancel this show. This show is a welcome change from all the home decorating programs?
I support this petition. There is nothing else on that deals with just quilting. How sad that there is just one show - and a decision is made to cancel the new shows so the same old reruns can be run over and over ...
I support this petition. This is one of the shows that got me started in quilting. It is the only reason I stayed watching HGTV. By removing the show you remove my reason to watch any hgtv shows. Sometimes I would watch other shows before or after just so I didn't miss simpy quilts.
I support this petition.I've watched Simply Quilts every day and have learned many valuable techniques. This is one of the main reasons that I tune into HGTV. Please do not take it off the air. Without Simply Quilts, HGTV is not worth watching.
It is disappointing to hear of HGTV's plan to air reruns rather than new episodes of Simply Quilts. Alex Anderson and her guests offer more than the how-tos of quilting; they encourage the imagination and creativity of viewers and inspire many toward new adventures in quilting. Freshness comes from new episodes not the same-old, same-old of reruns. I hope HGTV will reconsider its "Simply Quilts Reruns Show" plan.
I support this petition. I watch Simply Quilts every morning at 8:30. There are a lot of advertiments that I won't be watching if you don't continue to show Alex's new shows.
I support this petition. I watch Simply Quilts every morning at 8:30. There are a lot of advertiments that I won't be watching if you don't continue to show Alex's new shows.
I support this petition. If you cancel Simply Quilts you ratings might go down. In my area it is the only quilting program the cable have available and I really enjoy it.
I support this petition. This program is a beacon of quality, informative entertainment in the midst of a bunch of mindless home make over programs. It is one of the few truly good things about HGTV.
I support this petition. We need more shows like this that preserve our quilting heritage. Please don't take away one of the few shows that supports, shares and teaches this art.I get so many new ideas from the shows I tape because I work.
I support this petition.I watch simply quilts every single day of the week. I have it programed to my dvr to record it on both channels (hgtv) and (diy).I look foreward everyday to come home from work and watch them. Please do not cancel this program.
I support this petition. I've watched Simply Quilts for many years & don't want to see it go off the air. It's the main reason I watch HGTV. If you take Simply Quilts off the air, I probably won't watch HGTV anymore.
I support this petition. There should be MORE quilting shows instead of removing this one. There are more quilters than there are people making beaded lampshades and the like. Keep Alex!!!!!
I support this petition. I've learned valuable techniques. More important this show has brought me to your network! I would not have discovered it without my interest in quilting.
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is one of the few totally quilting shows that are left on the air. In past years many others have been cancelled. They have been sorely missed. While shows like Sewing With Nancy are great, many of us sewers aren't into sewing clothing and such. Quilting has enjoyed a huge resurgance in popularity over the past several years and shows like Simply Quilts were/are a great inspiration to get budding quilters blooming. Please don't take away the last of a great bunch of very instructional, even inspirational shows. Many veiwers, like myself, started out watching HGTV just for Simply Quilts and shows like Carol Duvall's crafting show. I know that Carol's show has already been dropped. I'm afraid without these two great shows I may not have a reason to again tune into HGTV.

I support this petition. I've gotten so many ideas from this show and have learned about many quilt artists that I would never be able to see here in Idaho.
I support this petition.
Why Simply Quilts? Many people have already pointed out the plethora of decorating programs on HGTV, which is overkill. Additionally, you have Carol Duval on several times per day. How many times per day can one stand to watch making beads and trinkets out of polymer clay? Quilting is a billion dollar industry and I will stop watching HGTV if Simply Quilts is cancelled. I will be passing along this website to my small quilt group, many of whom watch Simply Quilts. Also, my quilt guild, which is 500 plus people will be directed to follow suit.
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is the only morning show I watch. It is set to tape, so if I miss it, I can watch later. The other HGTV shows seem to be reruns so I quite watching them.
