Past event: OOPS - the August 2015 meeting is NEXT week
Your blog editor goofed -- the August meeting for EBHQ is not tonight, it's next Monday, August 31.
My apologies.
-- Rachel Holmen
CORRECTION: Aug 31, not tonight for next EBHQ meeting
CORRECTED TEXT: Summer is coming to a close, and next Monday's meeting (August 31) features Ana Lisa Hedstrom, who will talk about "35 Years of Shibori Dyeing for Pieced Clothing and Quilts".
See you there!

It’s Time to Show Your Quilts!
EBHQ’s Alameda County Arts Commission Exhibit
Oct. 23 - Feb.
26, 2016: Alameda County
Administration Bldg., 1221 Oak Street, near the Oakland Museum and just three
blocks from Lake Merritt BART
Oct. 23 - June
2, 2016: Highland Care
Pavilion, 1411 E. 31st Street, Oakland
Don’t miss the chance to be included this year and show off
your fabulous work. Both shows are located in well-lit, secure areas with high
traffic that are open to the public during normal working hours, Monday through
Friday. Our annual show is highly anticipated by the County workers and the
public who visit these buildings. What a wonderful way to promote quilting and
EBHQ in the East Bay!
We need up to 40 pieces (that have not been previously shown
here) in a wide range of styles and dimensions. Quilts can be up to 65” in
length and of any width, but small and medium quilts are most welcome and show
very well. Quilts will need to have a 4” sleeve sewn on the back.
Timeline:
1. Submit entry forms no later than September 28th
EBHQ general meeting
2. Deliver quilts at one of these events: General
meetings on August 31 or Sept. 28, Drop-Ins on Sept. 8 and 19. Or make special
arrangements with Jane Herlihy.
3. Show Installation: October 23, 2015
4. Show De-installation: Feb. 26 (County
Administration Bldg.) and June 2, 2016 (Highland Pavilion)
5. Quilts returned to you at general meeting
following the date of show closure, or by special arrangement.
