Don't miss out on any
Guild news!
If you aren't a member, join the OQG Digest at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OQG200102/join.
Thes link above takes
you to Yahoo where you
can sign up for Yahoo
(unless they already
have a Yahoo userid and
password) and ask to
join the group. Be sure
to put your preferred
email address in as an
alternate to the Yahoo
email address. Later you
can make it your primary
address.
You will be asked why
you want to join and at
this point you need to
give your full name.
(Something along the
line of "My name is Mary
Smith and I'm an OQG
member). The request to
join is then forwarded
to Marge B. who will
approve it once she
confirms your membership
in the Guild.
Marge is not be able to
confirm your membership
from just your email or
Yahoo ID. That's why it
is necessary to give her
your name. Once she
confirms membership, you
are immediately
approved.
Once you are a Yahoo
member, you can change
your delivery options.
You can choose to have
your digest delivered
with each email or once
a day depending on your
preference. Usually,
people choose to have
the email delivered to
their current address
(the alternate email
address) so they don't
have to check the Yahoo
email everyday.
Lots of interesting
information is posted on
the Digest and it's all
about QUILTING!
For more information on
the digest, see the OQG
DIGEST page. |

The Omaha Playhouse
has requested OQG member
Theresa Holman's quilt
"Denver Log Cabin"
be on display in the
lobby August 21 thru
Sept 27 during the run
of the play The
Quilters. You
probably saw Theresa's
quilt in the 2009 Quilt
Show.
Another quilt in our
show, a Challenge piece
by Michelle C., is being
featured in the
students gallery
page of Nancy Kazlauckas'
web page. She was
our October 2008 guest
speaker. Take a
look!
A quilt has been made
for the Camp Carol Joy
Holling quilt auction in

Behm. For details

of the quilt auction,

beautiful quilt, taken

Those people who set up
the show this year
commented on how much
easier the frames went
together. Thanks
to Joan Workman for
enlisting her
father-in-law to
standardize all the
hardware and refurbish
our frames for us.
He sent us some
pictures that show
the scope of the job! |
