I support this petition. This is the only quilting show we get from Cox Cablein Tempe, Arizona! Please reconsider your decision to cancel this excellent program!
I support this petition. I look forward to Alex's program Simply Quilts every morning. It would be a shame to cancel the best show on HGTV. Please reconsider
I support this petition all the way. Simply Quilts has helped me when I get in a slump or start feeling depressed. Quilting is my medicine. Please reconsider your decisions.
I support this petition.
This is the response to my e-mail directly to HGTV:
"Thank you for your e-mail concerning Simply Quilts. While it is correct that we will not be producing new episodes of Simply Quilts, the show will continue to run on HGTV at least through 2006. Our sister network, DIY, will also continue to air episodes. Again, thank you for your e-mail and for your support of Simply Quilts.
Customer Services, Scripps Networks Interactive"
I urge HGTV to reexamine this position and not force their viewers to pay for premium cable channels to see this program.
I support this petition. Please remember that you have an audience that usually remains quiet, patronizes your sponsors, and pays their taxes. However, when you make the really poor decision to stop one of your best shows, I think it is time you hear us YELL. Please rethink this decision. In a world of "eat this bug for a dollar", please allow Alex Anderson to bring us the gentle art of quilting. Thank you for your consideration. Maureen Mangon
I don't understand why a program like this is being taken off the air - especially where quilting has such a following and there are so few programs like this currently on the air.
this is one of the most informative programs I have ever seen and I agree with everyone else about how valuable it has been to my learning to quilt.
Please reconsider.
There are so many programs about redesiging houses, gardening etc. and only 1 on quilting. Please be fair!! IT is a wonderful program
I support this petition. This is the only quilting show left for the NY area. I look forward to new episodes and watch repeats even if i've seen them a thousand times. Please keep the show going.

I support this petition. Being from a rural area, some of her guests have opened my eyes to new techniques and innovative ideas that I might not have had the opportunity to see elsewhere.
I am a quilt shop owner and look forward to Alex's show each day for ideas for classes and merchandise. I can't tell you the number of customers who frequent my shop and mention having watched the show that morning. Please consider continuing the show with many more new episodes as well in the coming year. Thank you.
I support this petition.
I would rather see Room to Room canceled. Silmply quilts is a great show I look forward to it every day. It has taught me so much. Please don't cancel it!!
I support this petition. There are a lot of other shows I'd choose to cancel in preference to this one. We need to keep a variety of shows on the menu, not just decorator shows though I enjoy those also. Thanks!

I support this petition.
She is a terrific host. I watch it every morning. Stop bringing those nonsense "decorator" shows, you have too many. In fact, I think that the show should be one hour long. Don't you realize that quilting is "America"??
I support this petition.Alex gives us the best program available regarding this art form.Her info is innovative, challenging, inspiring. She encourages us to continue to explore and develope our art form. Please do not cancel this program.
I support this petition.Alex gives us the best info available. Inovative,timely, helpful,encourage us to continue this very popular art form. Please continue.
I support this petition.
I much rather see Room to Room cancel..I look forward to this show every morning while having my coffee..she has some wonderful guest on her show that really helps me out a lot in the quilting world..please do not cancel her show..
I support this petition. This is a great show. You will be losing a lot of viewers if you cancel Simply Quilts or don't make new shows. Please don't do this-we love Alex.
Though I'm not able to watch I try to tape and watch later - if HGTV doesn't bring it back hopefully another channel will pick it up and we can support them and their commitment to fabric arts! More sewing and quilting shows and less artsy fartsy craft shows.
I support this petition.
I manage a quilt shop and daily hear ladies talk about watching Simply Quilts. We love Alex and this show.We need Simply Quilts.
I support this petition. I am a beginner and the invalable information that I get from Alex Anderson's Simply Quilts is so helpful that I record it in advance to watch when I come home. Please do renew the contract!!! BJ
I support this petition.I watch this show every morning, I wish you would bring in Sandra Betzina again, others could be America sews, and Sewing with Nancy. I think the majority of women would much prefer these over the silly craft shows, and boring decorator shows that you now have.
I support this petition. I am a homebound person who watches only quilting and sewing shows for the rest of tv is usually garbage to me. Please DO NOT take Simply Quilts off the air. It is best week day show on tv for learning new and up to date techniques.
I support this petition. This show has been invaluable to my development as a quilter. Those of us in small communities depend on shows like Simply Quilts to stay informed and current in our field.
I support this petition. You are losing a major market - you should add more shows and sell the previous seasons on dvd. You should also do a book from the free patterns that guests were generous enough to post on the website. You are missing a MAJOR business opportunity
I support this petition. If it weren't for Alex I wouldn't be a quilter today. It is a terrible thing that HGTV is doing by not renewing the contract for this show.
I support this petition. SQ is the ONLY quilting show I watch. Alex covers material interesting to both traditional and contemporary quilters. Please reconsider!!
I support this petition. Please reconsider your decision. This is a kraft that has been passed down generation to generation. Old and Young alike enjoy this craft. thank-you
I support this petition. I have been quilting for 30 years and have learned so much from Alex Anderson. HGTV would be doing quilters a great disservice if it is not continued.
I support this petition and am very disapointed in HGTV deciding not to renew Simply Quilts. This was the main reason we purchased HGTV in our cable package.
I support this petition. I'm a new quilter and have learned so much from watching Simply Quilts! Alex makes things so much easier. Please keep this show on the air! Thanks.
I support this petition. Simply Quilts is one of the only shows I watch on HGTV...its the reason I asked my cable provider for it. Please bring back the show!
I support this petition.It's a GREAT show, and I personally think has encouraged many a "stitcher" to actually begin quilting. Please keep this program on the air...PLEASE.
