I can not believe that I am so lucky. One of my co-workers and I visited a quilt guild last January and were welcomed and ask if we were wanting to learn to piece quilts or quilt or just learn to sew. Of course we were interested in making quilt tops and are we ever hooked. Our guild has sewing every Wednesday from 10 to 3 for those that do not work and every Friday night for those that do work.
Of course you have little cliques or some that cling together but they are very willing to share some of their sewing techniques and short cuts. We love going and we have a lot of very talented quilters and they love to help you every way they can to improve your abilities. We have learned so much and have come a long way.
I wish all of you could have found a guild like mine.
