The president's message discusses that it has been a difficult year for the guild. They were forced to move locations after many years at McNabb due to a policy change. Thanks to Claire Todd's efforts, they have found a new home at City View United Church which offers parking, accessibility, and space to store the library. The executive will now focus on new challenges rather than finding a new location. Several key positions like vice president and librarian also need to be filled. The president is optimistic about the coming year with new workshops planned and a change in meeting night to the third Wednesday of each month at the new location starting in September.

PRESIDENT’SMESSAGE
By Kate Dinsmore
It’s difficult to believe that another year has come and gone, and
we are in June again.
I guess I must have been enjoying myself a great deal as time
just seems to fly by.
This has been a difficult year for the guild. I am very excited
to know that after a long and frustrating year that the guild will
be back on firm ground again.
After many years of being in McNabb and being able to store
out library on site, the City of Ottawa decided that this would
no longer be allowable and we were told to remove the library.
The executive has spent an inordinate amount of time and effort
trying to find a new home for either the library or the guild as a
whole. Although at first glance there seems to be many places
available, there are not very many which matched our search
parameters: reasonable cost, space for the library, and reasona-
bly central. Thanks to Claire Todd’s good work we now have
a new home – in the City View Untied Church. In addition to
allowing us to store our library, it also has lots of parking and is
truly handicapped accessible. Although McCabe has been ret-
rofitted for handicapped access, it is still a difficult building for
anyone with mobility challenges to enter. The executive will be
able to turn their time and efforts to new challenges.
A shortened executive has also run the guild; Dani unfortu-
nately resigned, and we were unable to fill her position of Vice
President. We also need a new librarian. Claire Todd has
taken on the role of Workshops chair and is already in contact
with several teachers so we should have some quite nice week-
ends coming up. Shelly Jones-Penney has taken over as Pro-
gram chair; and anyone who was privileged to see her pin dolls
and listen to her talk at the May meeting, is aware of how much
energy and passion she is bringing to the job. I think that we
are in for a wonderful year.
We have sorted a great many books out of the current library –
the bookcase was so full it was difficult to see what exactly we
did own. A lot of these are older books or are books where
we have other and better things on the same subject or tech-
nique. Any road, it cleans up the library and gives the guild
space for some of the new and exciting books being published.
Several of us went to the Books For You sale last weekend and
have bought some lovely new books for the library. These
purchases include the quite wonderful book on the Ackworth
School of Samplers, which was just recently published and is
destined to be the benchmark for these beautiful works. Also
new to us is two of the A to Z books (Beadwork and Stump-
work) which include very clear and specific photographs de-
scribing how to learn the techniques. These and others will be
available for loan in September.
Don’t forget though a new location means a new night. Start-
ing in September we will be in City View on the third Wednes-
day of each month, not Tuesday.
Hope you all have a wonderful summer and I will see you all in
the fall at our new site.

ERGONOMICS AND NEEDLEWORK - PART III of III
By Lynne Demmery
I am a co-chair of the Joint Health and Safety Committee at my “real job”. We’ve been preparing our ergonomics policy and I
found that much of what we were looking into could be applied not only to computer work, but to when you’re doing needle-
work. I am preparing this for you in 3 parts. Part I contained Neck and Face Exercises and Hand and Wrist Exercises (previously
offered in the December 2006 Issue), Part II contained Shoulder and Arm Exercises (previously offered in the March 2007 Is-
sue), and now the final installment, Part III contains Back, Legs and Ankle Exercises (this Issue of OVGS NeedleNotes). Collect
all three issues.

MILITARY KISS PILLOW PROJECT NEWS
By Lynne Demmery with assistance from Kate Dinsmore
As you can see from the heading of this article, we now
have a new name. Kate and I have been mulling over the
project name for a little while. Since it is all military per-
sonnel , “Soldier” refers more to our Army personnel but
just doesn’t fit for our Navy or Airforce personnel. We
don’t want them to feel left out. So, we decided that
“Military” just fits better.
In this issue of Needlenotes, I’m reporting to you about
our “Un-sung Heroes”. In calling them un-sung heroes,
I’m referring to all those outside our guild that generally
have no affiliation with us, but yet are giving us their time
and energy to help us with our Soldier Pillow Project.
Former-member, Sandra Baynes, has a cross-stitch circle
that have been working hard at helping us. I have been
keeping them up-to-date with things that are going on
with the project through Sandra and she’s been providing
us with finished pillows. Elaine Tessier has been doing
the same with her on-line stitching group, they’ve been
providing her with tops and Elaine has been finishing
them for us. Both groups are doing wonderful work, and
in mentioning them here, I’d like to give them some rec-
ognition and thanks.

Military Kiss Pillow Project News (Continued from Page 4).
Sherry Hickey is still around, though not a member any more. She’s
been making a few pillows for us whenever her back is in good working
order and she has time. She has even found spare maple leaf fabric to
back the pillows.
My mom (yes, my mom) has been working hard with making tops. She
calls them her therapy, she has been laid up with problems with her leg
and hip at the moment. She just loves making them, in both languages.
She calls them her “I LOVE YOU PILLOWS”. To date, she’s provided
us with I’m sure, more than 100 tops. And last time I talked with her, she
has another 5 or 6 dozen for us. I think she holds the record for most tops
made.
I have received also the odd one by mail from people who see our project and contact us and want to help out in
some small way. To them, we thank too.
We have 3 finishers. Bev, Dee and Lesley. I work with Bev and Dee and Kate works with Lesley. We’ve been
bringing our tops to Bev and Lesley and they’ve been steadily sewing
and stuffing for us and since Dee can’t sew, she’s been stuffing her
little heart out when I sew the pillows together. Lesley also has a few of
her quilting friends helping her out for us. You are all great hard
workers! Thanks ladies!
There is another helper. The company who print our newsletter have
agreed to print up the little labels that we include with our little pillows
for FREE. Lorne at Copiexpert Plus in Hull, Thank you!
Kate has a number of people putting feelers out for places to send our
pillows, taking samples and talking with many. We thank them as well.
We are hoping that sometime in August to have a get-together and
stitch and stuff pillows, so if anyone is up to it, just let us know and
we’ll keep in touch with you. All our helpers are welcome to join us. I
will let you know on the decided date!
And last of all, to many of our members who have participated and helped with this worthy cause, THANK
YOU to you too. With out all our helping members and our helpers, this project wouldn’t get off the ground.
Now that Canada Day is nearing, getting
Canadian fabric is easier. Fabricland has a
few styles as well as Wal-Mart. Kate and I
have been accumulating a small stash of
backing squares!
Have a great summer everyone and keep on
making those pillow tops!

STITCHING GROUP RECIPES
By Lynne Demmery
Most of our members are also members of stitching groups. I have asked our members to share their fa-
vourite recipes for things they make when their stitching group meets. Following along with the Chocolate
Theme that I’m run into the last few issues, Kate Dinsmore came up with a yummy treat. Now I do know
there are a few of you who haven’t been able to bake our recipes for the fact that they use Flour. Well this
one’s for you! No flour what-so-ever in this recipe. She apparently got it originally of a website called
Epicurious (http://www.epicurious.com) We’ve included one of the Reviews/Tips. Kate points out that if
you follow it, it does make for more of a mess, but apparently it’s well worth it.
FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE
(Can be preapared in 45 mins. or less)
4 ounces fine-quality bittersweet chocolate (not unsweetened)
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
3/4 cup sugar
3 large eggs
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder plus additional for sprinkling
Accompaniment if desired: Coconut Lime Sorbet
Preheat oven to 375°F and butter an 8-inch round baking pan. Line bottom with a round of wax paper and
butter paper.
Chop chocolate into small pieces. In a double boiler or metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmer-
ing water melt chocolate with butter, stirring, until smooth. Remove top of double boiler or bowl from
heat and whisk sugar into chocolate mixture. Add eggs and whisk well. Sift 1/2 cup cocoa powder over
chocolate mixture and whisk until just combined. Pour batter into pan and bake in middle of oven 25 min-
utes, or until top has formed a thin crust. Cool cake in pan on a rack 5 minutes and invert onto a serving
plate.
Dust cake with additional cocoa powder and serve with sorbet if desired. (Cake keeps, after being cooled
completely, in an airtight container, 1 week.)
TIP for LOW CARBERS & FRENCH COOKS: A tip for everyone for a superior cake follow some
classic french cooking techniques. Melt the choc & butter as described, and have on hand 2 more bowls.
In one, put the yolks and beat with sugar/sweetner till thick. In the other, beat whites till triple in volume
(you can add cream of tartar as a stabilizer too, to prevent collapsing), and set aside. Cool choc mixture,
and SLOWLY dribble choc into yolks. (And not the other way around!) If you are hasty, you will cook
them instead and ruin the recipe. When mixed, fold in the whites in 3 equal scoops, don't worry if you
have some white patches- better this than overmixed. Bake in oven as per recipe, do not open the door.
You will have a higher, more velvety result! Low carbers: the secret to getting this to work with unsweet-
ened choc is to make sure you have the right sweetness as you go along, so taste it at every step. To get
the least "artificial" flavour, mix different sweetners. I use a bit of Splenda, and both white and brown
Sugar Twin. I also bite the bullet and add the tiniest amount of icing sugar into the melting chocolate,
maybe 1 tbsp max- you really can't totally fool Mother Nature when it comes to the chemistry of baking.
For the few extra carbs, I'd rather have a smaller slice of something delicious than a larger piece of not-as-
good cake. If you do all of the above, you'll be in heaven with this recipe! If you have any recipes you’d
like to submit in the future, just contact me (Lynne Demmery) at ovgs@hotmail.com.
