As most of you know our Chicago Modern Quilt Guild’s paid membership voted last fall to become an affiliate of Modern Quilt Guild. As a result we will be making some changes over the next few months.
One of the benefits of becoming part of MQG is the ability to use the website for many of the things that we’ve been using this Big Tent site to do. Over the next few weeks we will be moving our forum conversations, meeting RSVPs, and members only announcements/information over to the Chicago Modern Quilt Guild’s page on the Modern Quilt Guild’s website.
This is a change for us: only those who pay dues to be a member of the Chicago Modern Quilt Guild will have access to our members-only information through http://www.themodernquiltguild.com/.
Our use of our blog, flikr, & facebook pages will serve as our public face for those not yet in membership to learn about who we are, where we meet and what we are up to.
If you are a lurker, we are glad you have kept up with us. We encourage you to come to a meeting and check us out in person! Also, make sure you bookmark the other ways that you can continue to keep up with our guild:

Quilters wishing to become a paid member of the Chicago Modern Quilt Guild, may join at any time. Payment can be made at any guild meeting, or until further notice, by check to out treasurer.
Dues are $55 per year for new members. If you were a paid member in 2013, your dues for 2014 are only $45. This difference in cost is due to joining the MQG and the change to our fiscal year. If you have questions about this, please contact our treasurer, me, Sarah Evans at sparklesax@gmail.com with the subject “CMQG dues question”.
