EQ8 Program on Monday Zoom

by

Hi Ladies,

Today was a challenging day for our technology skills and I’m sorry that the Zoomer’s were not able to see the EQ8 program.  I’ve talked with Mary and we decided that I will do the program again during the Zoom meeting on Monday.  This seems to be a better choice than just posting the Powerpoint file on the website as it has no voice component.  I will demonstrate the EQ8 software by opening saved projects and showing you how the quilts can be created and manipulated.

Please join the Monday Zoom at 11:00 am:

https://us02web.zoom.us/j/7587899293?pwd=bllKMGp1WElTNXJoaEc0c1dkM1VHUT09

Meeting ID: 758 789 9293
Passcode: mondayzoom

If you are not able to attend I will record the session and share the link after the Zoom.

Also, there was a question about running EQ8 on a tablet.  EQ8 states:

For customers interested in using EQ8 on tablets, please be aware that EQ8 will work on tablets that run Windows 10, Windows 8.1 and Windows 7.

Here are the Minimum System Requirements:

EQ8 will not run on Chromebooks or any devices running Android or iOS. EQ8 requires Windows or Mac operating systems, as listed below.

If you want to run EQ8 on BOTH platforms, you must purchase the EQ8 Migration Kit to get the installation files for the second platform.

Updated Membership List 2020

by

Hi, all you sheltering ladies!

It was so good to see many of you during the Zoom SQG Meeting on the 9th.  What a fun way to feel connected even though we can’t meet in person right now.  Mary’s program was terrific!  What a relief that the Powerpoint Presentation she made works seamlessly with Zoom.

Good news has arrived today.  Gayl Glover has sent her new address and phone number in South Carolina and has been added to the website and the updated Membership List 2020.  The Membership List has a Portrait View and a Landscape View.  Just click on the one you want and download it to your computer or tablet.  (If you have any problems with clicking on it and it doesn’t show, turn off your pop up blocker or security settings just while you are retrieving the list.)

Please check your info in the Membership List to make sure that we have the correct information to contact you.
