I support this petition. I started quilting by catching an episode of Simply Quilts and have learned the art of quilting from this show. I continue to learn by watching. Alex has continued to bring new ideas to us that have limited access to all the new techniques. Discontinuing the show will be a loss for old and new and quilters to come and also HGTV. Please rethink this decision about Simply Quilts.

I support this petition. Not only should Simply Quilts be renewed but expanded and other quilting shows added. Quilting is also considered a form of art. I don't think another show of painting walls and moving furniture can make the same claim.

I hate to see HGTV drop Alex Anderson's show; however, it is a pet peeve of mine that in a 30-min. time slot there is only 17 or 18 minutes of actual content. Simply Quilts should be a one-hour show with a minimum of interruptions. If you folks don't pick it back up in response to the thousands of protests you are receiving about dropping it, I hope a network with some discernment will pick it up and do it justice.

I support this petition.Home and Garden ??? How many homes don't have quilts ?? Simply Quilts is as much Home and Garden as any other show you have. Some home shows you'd have to be very wealthy to do. Simply Quilts is so very inspiring and calming. Alex is so down to earth. Please reconsider this stupid idea of canceling this wonderful show.

I support this petition.I also was very concerned when the last time change to the show was made to one time. The time was very inconvenient to quilters who work.That move cut in half your viewers and that's not fair. I had to view taped shows from friends who had taped it for me.The only thing that needs cancelling is the person who came up with that decision to drop half of your viewers...Please bring back the two shows a day at different times for all to watch...

Keep SIMPLY QUILTS. There are MANY quilters out here who love this worthwhile show. All is not in "re-decoorating", even if that is the trend. You have already wiped out all of the great gardening shows, now quilting is next? Come on....listen to your audience.
