I support this petition. I wondering why a program with such a good following would not be reviewed. It's broad appeal to quilters of all skill levels presented by teachers who know how to teach deserves an even broader audience if at all possible.
I support this petition. I have learned a tremendous amout from Simply Quilts and had hoped to do so for many years to come. Please reconsider your decision to cancel this show. Quilters of all levels benefit from it.
I support this petition. Why would HGTV stop producing quality programming? Is there a underlying problem with supporting men and women who express themselves in fabric and really enjoy being entertained and informed by a truely gifted person like Alex Anderson. What is going on? Do you want me to stop turning to HGTV for anything?
I support this petition. It inspires many new quilters as well as the more experienced. Simply Quilts has helped MANY quilters venture out of their comfort zone! Keep it going!!!!!!
There is a real lack of shows for quilters that both teach and inspire. Quilting is an art and a craft that will be lost to future generations if it is not encouraged by accomplished quilters today. Please reconsider your decision to cancel the Simply Quilts series, and help preserve this important American art!!
I support this petition. I have watched this show since the beginning and look forward to it every day. Alex Anderson provides a wonderful connection for all quilters with the rapid developments and changes in the quilting world.
I support this petition.
The comments made here by the women who have already signed this petition say it all. There are no more "words" that I can add except to say that I am a sewer and HGTV is no longer a place for me to go to improve my craft.
Reruns are great if you're watching Lassie. Showing me a Quilting show in the year 2006 that was actually filmed in 1999, isn't doing me much good. Quilting is a progressive thing. You know...you learn something and you move on. Fabrics and fabric care change. New quilting tools and techniques are being developed all the time. "Simply Quilts" is an excellent resource to keep up with those things and Alex Anderson is doing a great job. Now, we'll actually have to go out and spend money to keep up with these changes! Hope that doesn't cut into out cable budget!
I support this petition. I've watched this show from the beginning and will surely miss it. What is your intention as far as other craft shows for the viewers?????
I support this petition. Simply Quilts provides a valuable venue for professional quilters to share ideas and techniques with interested quilters nationwide. It inspires as well as teaches.
I am asking you to reconsider your decision to not have any more new Simply Quilts Shows and to only show reruns during 2006. What fits better with HGTV. Our quilts are all about Home -- quilts that decorate our beds and walls; Garden -- guests on SQ make some beautiful garden-themed quilts; and TV -- you have had one of the most loyal of TV audiences that other companies can only wish for. Please listen to your viewers. We want Simply Quilts and we want more new shows with Alex Anderson. Thanks for listening. Now please take the right action and order 26 more new programs from SQ.
I support this petition.alex anderson is an inspiration to quilters everywhere. she exposes us to new and exciting adventures in quilting. please keep her show on tv.
Simply quilts is very important to the quilting community as a way to see teachers and designers that are normally not in my area. The show should be expanded not canceled!
For many people in rural areas this is their only exposure to the variety of teachers and ideas Simply Quilts is known for. Please don't remove this show.
I support this petition. Due to the time that this show airs I don't get to view it as much as I would like. However this show is wonderful and the only quilt show on HGTV. Don't let this show get away.
I support this petition. Please keep us deversified. Quilting is an important part of many of our lives along with decorating, cooking and gardening. What would HGTV be without Simply Quilts and the current trends in quilting. Alex shares so many talented people with us. Thank you
I support this petition.
I enjoy watching the artist segments and will miss them. I also had a blast filming two shows year and my book sales went way beyond my projections, so check out all the voices that want the show back! Please reconsider renewing the show.
I support this petition. The Simply Quilts show is very well done and offers more variety than any other. It includes art quilts, which are often ignored on other shows.
I support this petition. Gosh, it's only a half hour and the only quilting show on HGTV. There is an overload of cooking shows, remodeling and other crafts. Please save Simply Quilts! I love the show and love Alex Anderson as host.
I support this petition. I have gotten so many tips and learned so many new techniques from this always interesting and informative program. Please keep it on the air and continue to produce new episodes.
I support this petition. Almost every day someone comes into my store wanting a book or tool they learned about on Simply Quilts. It really does a good service to all of us quilters.
I support this petition. I am a beginning quilter and Simply Quilts and Alex have been a great inspiration and educational tool. I never knew that there was so much to learn about the art of quilting. I am a firm believer that you can never learn everything there is to learn about quilting without the aid of such a show as Simply Quilting. Hey, it even got my husband interested in quilts and their art and beauty. Please DO NOT TAKE SIMPLY QUILTS OFF OF HGTV.
I support this petition!
Simply Quilts is the best quilt show on and Alex presents the program beautifully. She the the latest trends and quilt teachers.My day isn't complete without watching her show. Having new shows and not reruns is the best. Please don't cancel Alex and Simply Quilts!
I support this petition. There is a huge number of quitlers that watch this show. If you cancel this show you will have lost a tremendous sized viewing audience.
I support this petition. This is one of the only TV quilting shows that are still available in my area. Please reconsider as this show has been instrumental in keeping quilters apprised of what is happening in the quilting world. Thanks!
I support this petition. I look forward to this show daily. It is like my morning "fix". Retirement for me was the opportunity to see the show "live" rather than taping the show each day. In our monthly quilting group, there was always something to discuss from "Simply Quilts". Those of us who love to create use this show daily!!! Please do not cancel!
I support this petition. This show is one of the few reasons that I will pay for cable TV. Please do not take this valuable and informative show away from us. We need shows like Simply Quilts to feed and nurture our creativity. It makes us better Moms and wives to have our creative outlets, so please, please do not take this valuable resource away from us!
I support this petition.
Over the last several years I have learned more about quilting by watching Simply Quilts than with any class I have taken. Quilting and sewing are basic skills for the "home" in Home and Garden. By concentrating only on decorating and gardens, important sewing skill are going to be lost.
Simply Quilts has become a "must" for everyone in the quilting arena - beginners, experienced, teachers, and everyone in this business of quilting. It is a fabulous clearing house for ideas and inspiration, and I hope you reconsider and keep it on the air.
I support this petition. I would love to see MORE of Simply Quilts not less! Please do not start the reruns and continue showing new material on a daily basis (even two or three times a day would be ideal!!) I Love You HGTV but this is not a great idea. We want Alex! We want Alex!
I support this petition. This is only 1 of 2 shows that shows updated, current trends and quilters. If HGTV can repeat the same shows 2 ttimes a day, surely they can continue Simply Quilts.
I support this petition.
Simply Quilts is simply the best source of information for quilters and Alex does a great job in presenting it. Please don't cancel it. Retailers such as myself depend upon the stimulation she provides for quilters and crafters to keep the industry stimulated. There is not another show like it, and not everyone can get the DYI network.
I support this petition. In the Upper Penninsula of Michigan, we don't have available very many quilt shops and/or quilt classes offered in our small town. We depend on Simply Quilts to learn more about quilting.
I support this petition. I am a quilt collector and a big fan of HGTV. Please keep this show on the air. It is a tremendously valuable resource for the quilting community.
I support this petition.Simply Quilts is a lovely show and has taught me so much. I enjoy learning about different methods of quilting and meeting different designers. I hope you reverse your decision.
I support this petition. This show is the best show and has so much wonderful information to offer. It also has so many wonderful guest quilters with great ideas and creativity. Alex is such a wonderful asset to the show. Please reconsider!!!!!!!!!
I support this petition. You repeat shows each season as it is. We need to see the innovations in quilting that Simply Quilts brings to us each day. It is the ONLY show for quilters you offer. What a gap in programming for HGTV.
I support this petition.
Quilts - their beauty, creativity, history and inspiration are worthy topics for an entire TV Channel. How could you consider dropping this Simply amazing program?
