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

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.
