I support this petition. I tivo Simply Quilts every day! I never miss a show. I would hate to see it end. Alex and her guests never fail to encourage me to try new things. Shame on you for ever thinking about cancelling this show. I am just appalled!

Educational shows of this caliber are rare. Please reconsider taping new shows as this is an excellent way for quilters all over to share techniques and fresh ideas.

I support this petition. I love this show. When my mom died it gave me the idea to make a quilt out of her clothing as a keep sake. I had never sewn a stitch before, and this show helped me make a a very precious hierloom for myself and family. I wish it was on more often like all the other shows that replay 50 times a day on hgtv

Since quilters in the U.S. spend more money on their vocation/avocation than any other (at least that's what I've heard), and since Simply Quilts has managed to get almost EVERY major quilt artist (or their work) on the show, I would highly encourage HGTV to continue it...I never miss a show and often watch particular ones of interest more than once since I Tivo all of them.

Deborah McKenzie said 12/31/05, 8:34 pm (verified)
With the huge popularity of the quilting arts, this show provides not only inspiration and direction for quilters, sewers and fiber artists everywhere, but also a much needed break from the "home decorating" saturation on HGTV. Please re-consider the decision to cancel "Simply Quilts". Why mess with a good thing?

There are so many new ideas on quilting and Simply Quilts was so great in presenting it to it's viewers, this will be greatly missed by all quilters if the show is not renewed. Please rethink you programing and keep great shows like Simply Quilts on.

I support this petition. Please DO NOT CANCEL Simply Quilts!!!! There is no other quality quilting program available on any network. Quilters need Alex's show to learn new techniques, review old ones and find out about new products and techniques. Quilters spend A LOT OF MONEY on quilting products. I tape the show every day and go to the HGTV website to print out instructions from that show. Cancelling Simply Quilts will create a huge loss to many people all over the country. I am very disappointed with your decision and I hope that you will reconsider.

Please do not cancel Simply Quilts. It is the best instructional quilting show on TV. HGTV was created to help crafters and homewners do it themself.
