Have lots of fabric scraps or leftover quilt blocks in your craft stash? Well, have I got some ideas for using them up!

I found this blog and enjoyed reading. However, my question is why the Simply Quilts program has been reduced to only two (2) airings per week. I know that all of the shows are reruns but for people like me who has a love of quilting and sewing, it doesn't matter that they are reruns. Please reconsider and start airing the program more and try to find more programs along this line. It seems that the majority of the programs on HGTV are geared toward remodeling homes, buying homes, home gardens, etc......There are a lot of people out here that do not have any reason to watch these programs as the projects require lots of money and are not practical to the common person. Please try and find more creative sewing programs. Thank you.

Finally! I am SO HAPPY that I'm not the only one who misses seeing Simply Quilts more regularly. I am a recent retired school teacher who has missed the quilt shows because of work. I was so looking forward to watching at my leisure now that I am at home. They are mostly all new shows for me. But I would watch them over and over again, learning something new each time I watch. PLEASE start showing them every weekday! We are counting on you, Camille! I might add that even though you are running videos of the shows online, there are those of us out there who are using dial-up connections and the videos don't run! Thank you for helping us out!

OH yes, I totally agree, more sewing shows, and yes, more Simply Quilts. I am just a rag quilter, but love to see the other types, and crafty things to do with scraps........please, please, please......................I'm so tired of the house re do's
but love the antique shows on collecting, and flea market finds..........what happened to those shows?
