I support this petition. Simply Quilts acts as a vital tool in the quilt world. It provides inspiration, incentive, and product information in what has become a billion dollar industry and an American art form. Please continue to produce new episodes.
Simply Quilts is simply the best produced program on tv about quiltmaking. Those who are fotunate enough to get this show from their cable providers will surely miss these programs. So many new techniques and quiting experts are emerging daily and it would be a shame not to have Ms. Anderson continue her great work in promoting and teaching the art of quilting. I
I support this petition. Quilting is a multi-billion dollar business in the US. Most quilters do not have access to quilting instruction in their area. Simply Quilts is their lifeline to continuing this American art form.
I support this petition. This show has the most variety of any of the quilt shows--the artists and craftsmen are always of the highest quality. DO NOT CANCEL THIS PROGRAM!
I would never be where I am today in quilting without the Simply Quilts show. It was always fun to see and learn from popular quilters. It's the only one I've ever been able to get here and without it there would be a great big gap in my TV watching.
I support this petition. I watch almost every morning and have made several items from the instructions. There are enough decorating shows. There are lots of quilters in my area that watch this show.
I support this petition. PLEASE do not cancel Simply Quilts. Alex and her guests area wealth of information not available anywhere else for the beginner and advanced quilter. It is a perfect place for those not able to attend classes any other way to learn new or old techniques... especially the newbies who may be too intimidated to go to a shop or quilt show to learn the even the basic techinques. If Alex needs a break (we all do) go ahead and show re-runs next year, but PLEASE don't eleminate this invaluable resource that so many people depend on. It will truly be like losing a best friend.
I support this petition. In the long run, I only have satellite TV in order to watch Simply Quilts. As a quilt teacher and art quilter, I can say that I learned what I know from Alex Anderson and I send my students there to learn also.
I support this petition.I started watching Simply Quilts when I first began quilting. I have watched it faithfully for 4 years and it is the one morning show I seldom miss.
I support this petition. Alex Anderson is a sparkling asset to the network. This show is NOT an commercial for products. Lose the fat rude jewelery girl.
This is one of the few places on your network where African-American artists have been recognized. Don't throw away the good will this has created by cancelling this show.
I support this petition. I also do agree that this is a quality show and should continue with new episodes. This art form should continue by being supported by HGTV.
I support this petition. I have chosen to go with a more expensive cable company in order to have HGTV. My main reason is to watch Simply Quilts. I was disappointed when sceduling went from twice to once a day. I will have no need to pay more for cable without Simply Quilts.
I support this petition. I watch it every day, or record it for later viewing. I learn something new and useful in every episode. As a relatively new quilter, I know a lot more "tricks of the trade" than many seasoned quilters, simply because of this program.
I support this petition, not only as a viewer but as a guest on the show. Teaching my methods on Simply Quilts has partially solved that problem of not being able to be everywhere at once!
I *strongly* support this petition. This is one of the few quality quilting shows on the air now. There's something for beginners as well as tips that more experienced quilters can use. I hope HGTV and the *SPONSORS* will reconsider.
I support this petition. This is the show where I get 95% of my quilting inspiration and knowledge. I change my schedule to watch and if nessecary I will tape it as to not miss it. Even my infant son watches with me - staring at the screen while the show is on and playing during commercials - that says a lot
I support this petition. This is the one and only show I watch on HGTV. Most of what I know as a quilter, I've learned from Alex Anderson on Simply Quilts. If she's gone, I'll have no reason to watch HGTV.
I support this petition. This is yet again a valuable resource for us quilters who can't always get out to a class. Quilting is a huge industry that reaches thousands of quilters. You don't want to cut off such a useful resource to all of us. Please keep this show on the air.
I support this petition. I learn so much from this show. How could you
cancel it? CHECK YOUR TIME SLOTS SO THAT IS IS ON DURING THE DAY. I WANT THE SHOW BACK.
I support this petition. I watch Simply Quilts each morning. It is the only quilting show that I have available to me since my local PBS station has also cancelled all of their quilting shows. Please keep this show on the air!
I support this petition. I watch Simply Quilts every day. I became a quilter because of this show. For me, this is THE BEST show on HGTV. Please keep Alex on the air !
I support this petition.Please consider renewing Simply Quilts. I watch it every day, and enjoy it thoroughly. It is THE show we talk about when the quilters get together. It's the best quilting show around. Thanks.
I support this petition.
This is a FABULOUS show...there is something for ALL quilters: traditional, art quilters, beginners and those who have been quilting for years. I have gotten bored with all the decorating shows that HGTV airs. I have NEVER been been bored with Simply Quilts, even watching the repeats is beneficial.
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is THE show for quilters. We look to it for the latest trends and ideas and to meet the quilters behind them. It would be a great loss to lose this resource. Please reconsider plans to cancel the program.
I support this petition. I have learned so much from her show. I'm always disappointed when I have to miss an episode. I have learned so much from her.
I support this petition.
Though this does not air at a convienct time for me I still enjoy the program very much and enjoy watching the sessions that I have taped. There are not many sewing/quilting shows on (in my area they are all on at 5:00am Saturday). I guess we are not a very respected group.
I support this petition.This show was the reason we got Direct TV. I've also sent you a letter in support of this show. Keep quality programing on the air!
I support this petition. I believe you should be adding new quilting programs instead of cancelling any. Simply Quilts is the only program that introduces quilt designers to us. Except for Simply Quilts, I would have never known who Mary Lou Weidman was. She is now my favorite designer and I have taken a class from her.If you cancel the show you are not only doing a disservice to us but also the designers!
I watch Simply quilts and tape it so I can go back over the episodes since there is usually so much to see and learn. Please don't cancel this show. It's my favorite.
