The OKCMQG has monthly meetings where we learn and discuss ideas and techniques. The Show & Tell portion of our meetings is a favorite by all as we share our completed projects or works-in-progress. We also occasionally meet for other events such as sew days. In 2011, we had our first public quilt show and we are looking to make it an annual event.
We also have an active Facebook page which serves as another way of getting to know each other. We frequently post work-in-progress photos or seek advice from each other regarding fabric choices, products and techniques.
Please join us! New members are welcome at any time and your first meeting/event is free. If you like what you see, membership dues are only $40 annually. When you become a member of the OKC Modern Quilt Guild you also attain membership in the national Modern Quilt Guild!
