I belong to 3 guilds - a big one, a small one, and one in between. (Sounds like Goldilocks, huh?) I get ideas, friendships, outings, lessons, other experiences from the guilds, but I quilt alone, at home. I don't like carting my stuff around, and I like sewing in my own space, with my machine at the right height, my cutting table handy, etc. The only problem is that the computer is also handy... too handy... and it takes up far too much of my time.
Francie - where in Oregon? If you wait on your ladies hand and foot, I might just want to sew with you! In fact you may have a crowd coming over... LOL
