Yes, but it appears that not even the login page is using https (secure http), which means passwords are being sent unecrypted, which is bad. It's especially bad because many people use the same password on multiple sites. If I remember correctly, this quilting board wasn't using https when I first signed up for it, but I don't think I noticed until later on.
