I realized all of you ARE my quilting guild. This is just a note of appreciation for the compassionate ear, the marvelous pattern ideas, the wonderful show-and-tell, and the opportunity to share my opinions and advice that is this board. Thank you!!

and wasn't there a "guild" card rolling around for a while, that we could print off and carry? i most likely didn't get us any privileges, as i remember, but it made us a part of a larger "thing"...

I'm with you gramma nancy. Although most of us will never ever meet, I feel as if this group of women (and men) are my quilt guild. They are my eyes and ears, my teachers, my researchers, my advisers. And lets not forget that you will not find a kinder group pf people anywhere!

Hear, hear!! I totally agree with you all. This board is my favorite place in cyber land to visit. I have had so many positive, generous and creative persons befriend me on this board, I feel like this is my cyber home away from home. I have laughed, cried, prayed and shared so much with the girls over the years.
I have learned some very important quilting skills and tips, it is invaluable in every way to me. So, Thank you all for making this place a cyber quilting guild for me too. No tea room or guild could even come close.
