The guild I belong to has only 14 members. We are small but work well together. We do not have dues, we just put small change in a cup very month and that pays for the batting when we make a charity quilt. It is held are my church so every baby that is baptized in the church gets a quilt from us. We try to make a quilt if some one falls ill etc. Nice group of ladies. We also take turns bringing lunch. Occasionally go on road trips together. Might I add, we all have Janome machines. Some bought them after we started meeting cause they liked the ones I had etc. Marge
PS, I used to belong to a guild with 100 members but it was at night and about 30 miles away so don't do that anymore.
