How cool is this !

[quiltingnanny]

I'm in for MQS !!! The new system is awesome !!! Took 9 minutes to complete and receive confirmation. Glenda

P.S. if I wasn't 'fumble fisted' it would've been quicker ! Thanks MQS

[barbm]

I'm registered, too, Glenda! You're right, it was very slick.

[quiltingnanny]

See ya there Barb !:cool:

I refreshed my page at 11:56 and was able to start the registration process beor midnight. I was done at 12:05. Pretty slick! I'm excited!! It was awfully hard to narrow the classes down, but I'm excited about the ones I will be taking. Ü

Hi Glenda,

Good to see you my friend,

I am here with DH visiting relatives in Broadway, Union County, Ohio.

MQS 2010 trip is very appealing, I might go again, had a good time last May, thanks to you.

I am an IMQA member, received the catalog in the mail, but cannot find the "registration" button to save my life. I've followed the directions at least three times and have tried other possibilities, all to no avail. I assume I'm missing something so if anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate hearing them. Thank you.

Hi, you said you received your catalog. Did you also receive an email invitation? If not, check your spam or junk box. sometimes things will get rejected. If it is not there contact, [email protected] and let them know you have not received your invite yet.

Hope this helps.

[Jabaro Designs]

I have received many emails from MQS regarding the show but no invitation - just new categories etc. And my spam/junk box is empty. Thanks for your assistance; I'll make contact as you suggested.

I received an invitation for registration and the FROM is Linda Hamson with SUBJECT Invitation to the Machine Quilters Showcase. You might try sorting your mail by the FROM column and see if you did get the invitation.

I registered this morning. I thought about staying up until midnight but I just didn't make it! The process was quite simple and the classes that I chose were all open. YEAH! Actually almost any class would have been good for me since this is my first MQS .... well, that isn't quite true since I did get to spend a half day viewing quilts and visiting vendors last year. I don't have a hotel reservation and am now hoping to find a roommate or two or three to share expenses with. OOHHHH! And we have to wait 5 months for all the fun and learning!

Thanks Carmen, but no such luck. I wish the catalog would have said something about needing an invitation in their registration directions (if there, I still don't find it).

Here's the info off of the IMQA web site regarding registration and the invitation:

The Online Registration Process:

You must be a current member of IMQA (have paid for your membership) to be able to register for classes beginning on December 1, 2009 - 12:01 AM CST.

If you are a current member you will receive an email invitation to register for classes to be taken at MQS. This message will be sent by [email protected] and Linda Hamson.

If you have NOT received your invitation email by Saturday, November 28, 2009, please check your spam or junk mail folders. Some email providers filter out mail that appears to be a mass mailing.

If you have not received your invitation after checking the above listed areas please send a message to [email protected] and include your full name, membership number (found on your address label of your Fall issue of On Track!) and the method of payment used to renew your membership.

Watch your email account for a return message. We will determine your membership status and contact you with your course of action.

Solved - I have two e-mails, one personal, one business. Everything from MQS EXCEPT the invitation was sent to my personal account, the invitation to the business one. Thanks for everyone's help.

[LauraJ]

I'm pooped! Trying to figure out what to take, when, how not to get blitzed - but I'm done! I'm very, very impressed with the system they used. Look forward to meeting ya'll!

[Sheri Butler]

I too am in.

I am taking a relaxing year this year.

Staying Tues nite thru Sat afternoon.

Taking ONE class per day. Yep, you heard me right. ONE class per day.

I want to veg, chat, shop, and do a total relax thing.

I've overloaded on classes before, and frankly it doesn't agree with me and my fibromyalsia.

Too much writing, drawing, etc. and the pain isn't worth it to me.

Can't wait to see you all there in May!

[jackie_lathem]

Carmen, sent you a U2U

[JoAnnHoffman]

Could someone please email me the link to register early. I never received the MQS email and when I sent them the info for them to give me the link they never responded.

I would love to register today since I am a member.

Thanks,

JoAnn
