the problem is the meetings are on Thurs. during the day and I work full time. I can't take off every Thurs and go to quilt guild, only get 30 min for lunch so I can't use my lunch time. I suppose it would be rude to join pretty much in name only just so I can meet some other quilters and would be able to go to retreats or workshops that are held on the weekends. (You have to have been a guild member to attend and workshops or retreats)??
