What are your experiences with guilds?
I'm going to be attending my first quilt guild meeting this evening. I'm praying for a good experience. I figure it can't hurt to check it out and I did have a lovely conversation at the fair with a memeber and she seemed very nice. I know for me it will be a while before i'm brave enough to show my work, but that will be because, I can be my own worst critic and don't like opening myself up to someone elses critique.
As for cliques, you are going to find them in any club and i'm sure a guild is no different. Some people just mesh well with some but not with others. I just think the rudness should be put aside when in the group setting.
