Can someone tell me how OPW works. I am signed up to receive their weekly newsletter. Do they tell you where the freebies are at, or do they just tell you who the designers of the week are and you have to go look at each group of designs and find the freebies for yourself? Thanks for your help.

I usually receive their weekly newsletter on Friday/Saturday but sometimes they are a couple of days or more late. Last weekend I haven't received their newsletter at all, so I opened their website and clicked on Weekly Newsletter, at the left-hand side of their home page, and there it was. The freebies are to be found at the bottom of the Newsletter, just follow their instructions. Hugs, Lidia

Below is a link to their home page:

Have fun. Sometimes the designs are hard to search for from the digitizers, but there are many ways to receive free designs from them.

Various designers will give a sample with a new set. They are at the top of that person's page, and say NEW. Not always.
If you look on the left side of the main index page,under bonus offers, there is an "exclusive freebies" link. That will take you to a page where you can sign up for MOC-Members Only Club. No fees, just registering. There, you will find a multitude of goodies. Tutorials, projects, great quilting help series. Last year was for traditional quilting, this year DeDe of Hallet House Designs is walking us through paper piecing, both in the hoop, and traditional.
Then, there are the free designs shown at the bottom left of the newsletter-given out throught the month, I usually wait for the next month to start so I don't miss any. A riddle of the month, a few designs to hunt for. 2011 is still archived there, so you'll have lots to get. A great place to join. And the newsletter keeps you abreast of ongoing alphabet giveaways, if there are any.

Thanks, Jo, great explanation. Each designer has freebies in some sets, but as a member of the Members Only Club (free) you get free designs in one place, different from in the sets. M

Another note. The "weekly" newsletter used to come out on Fridays but it's usually late so be patient.
