    Hi Gang,
    I am asking you to write to HGTV.com and go to the bottom of the page and use contact us to plea for the return of Quilting Shows. If we all take a moment maybe we can enjoy many hours of pleasure in the future. HGTV may reconsider if we all stick together and write . It will just take a few minutes. So go now and write. Also tell all your quilting friends, groups, and LQS to do the same. Thanks for helping. I am just tired of wishing and decided to do something. The least we can do is try. Again HGTV.com and go to "contact us".
    Sincerely,
    Jane in PA

    I did it. They require you choose what this is concerning so I picked the first topic as none were appropriate.

    I discussed recycling fabric from thrift stores.

    The contact us spot is in reallly, tiny letters at the very bottom on the left hand side, Don't give up.

    I miss all the crafty shows they used to have. Carol Duval was so cute. I really don't care about the real estate shows and yard stuff!

    There are so many good teachers out there and sponsors I know would back the show. Thanks for your help.

    We don't get any quilting or craft shows on TV in Aus (unless you can afford cable) - just endless home renovating shows.

    I would love a quilting show to watch once a week, but for now I spend hours on the Missouri Star Quilting co, watching their tutorials and have learned so much.

    I don't give up too easily. When I get tired of hearing myself complain, it when I put it in gear and do something.
    Thanks for your help.

    Just sent my message to HGTV. I know I get tired of the decorating and renovating shows. It's summer time and there isn't even any garden shows on there. I miss Carol Duvall and Alex Anderson. I also miss the trash to treasure type shows. Don't know about you guys but I'm on a tight budget and I really don't care that they can Sell New York for millions or go House Hunting for a vacation home. Sure would be nice to see how I can make my budget stretch even farther.

    I sent my message to. Maybe if enough of us let them know what we want in tv programs, they will listen to us. Worked with Wal-Mart!!
