I belong to a great quilt guild of about 50 ladies young and old. Everyone is very supportive and willing to teach you if you are having trouble. We do a quilt show every year and raise money for some group in our town that needs help. I'm proud to belong to this quilt guild and anyone is welcome. I'm sorry to hear so many have had terrible times with the ones they have been to. We just did a class for children in our town the kids were great and those of us who helped had a great time. Hopefully we made some kids future quilters. We plan to do another class in the fall.
