I am now a part of the knitters and crocheters of our county. We meet at the library and we are going to make afghans to give to the needy. While there at our last meeting I asked if there were any quilting groups that were not guilds (I can't afford to join any clubs). Anyway the leader of this group said that the head librarian was into quilts as well as other crafts and might be interested in starting a quilt group. So maybe others should ask around at their church or library to see if there are others that are interested in starting this up. If nothing else donating small baby quilts to hospitals for low income/needy families.
Just a thought.
