Ditto. I don't go to either a local group or the State guild anymore because of unfriendly members, secretive members who were willing to share ideas / patterns etc and it had become so 'clicky', I always felt as an intruder. Prefer now to sit at home and sew by myself and of course, I too have learned so much from this Board. Much more welcoming and pleasant.
