Yes I am part of my local guild. I really enjoy going to the meetings and meeting other quilters and especially seeing all their work!!!! Because I work, I have never been able to attend any workshops from our various speakers. We are a large club (300+) so we are able to bring in nationally known speakers a lot
We have a very generous guild and have 2 big "give away's" a year. We give away over 600 quilts a year to local charities, not including bibs, burp cloths, pillow cases, and knitted baby caps by the hundreds.
