I know what you mean about some not so nice people in the quilting guild, I was going to join one here, but there are some people in that group that are really nasty and when you ask a question they look at you like you have two heads are something. I haven't been quilting very long and need help and need to ask questions, so I decided that I wouldn't join and that I could get more help here than there. I really enjoy all you nice ladies here, when I ask a question I get a whole bunch of answers. Thank you all for being so nice and helpful. We all were newbies at one time.
