I support this petition. This is an excellent quilting show. I have learned a great deal from watching. You might have more viewers if you offered it on a different time of day on the West Coast.
#4293

Sherry Ramaila, Thousand Oaks, CA said 12/22/05, 7:32 am (verified)
I support this petition. If Simply Quilts is having low viewer issues, HGTV should consider moving it back to reasonable time slots - on the west coast, it comes on at 8:30am which is an impossible time (women are either on their way to work or dropping kids off at school). Simply Quilts used to be shown at 6:30am, which made it possible to watch. Now, the only way to see it on the west coast is if you have TiVo or DVR.

Karen Blade said 12/22/05, 6:45 am (verified)
I support this petition. There are very few programs on HGTV that I feel are worth recording. That said, the one at the very top of the list to record and review time and time again is Simply Quilts with Alex Anderson. It is a must see and is one of the most worthwhile programs for women today. Please reconsider your plans to cancel this show.

I support this petition. This is a national pasttime and not only does it interest todays quilters, but is a valuable show for historical purposes. Please do not cancel this show. There are some people who quilt and are home bounds who watch religiously. There are not many show on TV that show quilting.
#4270

Dorothy Trahan said 12/22/05, 6:36 am (verified)
I support this petition. I have been disappointed with the lack of quilting and sewing programs on TV. If HGTV discontinues Simply Quilts it will be a great loss to quilters and those who love quilts. Most of the time I am in a group of quilters I hear the question, "Did you see ___(this or that) on Simply quilts?" I tape it if I'm going to be gone while it airs. There are more than enough remodel, redo programs on HGTV, TLC, Discovery, etc. Please keep Simply Quilts on the air. Thank you.
#4269

Karen Payne said 12/22/05, 6:31 am (verified)
Canceling this show would end the most inspirational and educational quilt shows on TV. And it is the only reason I continue to pay expensive cable bills.

I support this petition. Simply Quilts is not just a show to watch on tv, it is an educational avenue for quilters to truly learn from. There are very few quilting shows on, and Simply Quilts is the best instructional quilting show that I have seen. For some quilters Simply Quilts is the only way they are able to recieve quilting instruction because of location or finances or other reasons. Please do not cancel this wonderful show that so many people are enriched by every single day. I look forward to viewing new shows next season.

Ellie Herr said 12/22/05, 5:52 am (verified)
I support this petition. I waited for several years to get HGTV. Now that I do, I start my day with it. It was the "thing" that got my sister into quilting and we are always calling across the U.S. to discuss the new shows. Please understand how much this program means to so many of us and how it keeps us all up to date on the newest in the craft. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration to continue with new episodes.

I support this petition. I do not understand your decision to cancel Simply Quilts. I was very disappointed when you cancelled the afternoon showing. That was nothing compared to this decision. My guess is that you are going to replace it with yet another decorating show. You already have more decorating shows than a body can use - don't wipe out our ONE quilting show you provide.

I support this petition. Please, not another decorating show! The HGTV lineup is already stuffed with decorating ideas. Simply Quilts keeps us connected to new trends in quilting and showcases fellow quilters from around the world. Rather than taking the show off the air, maybe your decision makers can learn to use a needle and thread or sewing machine and perhaps then they will see the value in keeping shows like this on the air.
