I still belong to interior design group ASID and sit on a board for our city, guess thats enough for now.:)
I am surprised that this thread scared you away from quilt guilds since more of the responses were positive. All of life is like a guild, some good things, some bad things. I belong to two quilt guilds and a weavers guild and was welcomed from the start.
