Getting Started with OMQG

 

 Welcome!

We're glad you're here!  There are several opportunities for you to get involved when you join the Omaha Modern Quilt Guild.  Below is information about the various opportunities we offer throughout the year.  Join us!
 

Monthly Meetings: 

Meetings are on the first Tuesday of the month.  We have a variety of speakers, hands on activities and demonstrations - come get inspired and meet fellow modern quilters!

 

Monthly Block Study:

In 2025, we are doing a Monthly Block Study.  Each month a block will be announced and members are encouraged to explore different variations of that single quilt block design.  At the end of the year, members can make a quilt out of their blocks, or donate blocks or completed tops for a Girls, Inc. community engagement quilt.

 

Block Lotto: 

Roughly each quarter we strive to host a block lotto using a free block pattern available to all members!  For each block made you will receive entry to win either the entire lot or enough to make a throw size quilt based on how many blocks were entered. 


In Person Sew Days: 

Watch for the dates and details to be posted throughout the year to participate in Sew Days.
 

Threaded Together Hand Stitching Group:

Group meets monthly on the 4th Monday from 1-4pm.  Location varies.
 

Retreats: 

We typically offer 2 retreats each year - spring & fall, watch for updates in your emails and on social media for more information. 
 

Workshops: 

We offer a variety of workshops throughout the year. 
Find our current workshop information here: Workshops
