I attended a guild meeting for the first time last week. the lady that invited me told me to bring in show and tell items. I did not bring any to that meeting. I felt as a first time visitor, that may not be accepted too well, and i was not sure if tops were allowed. I have a nice top that will be quilted when I return to MI. Some guilds specify only finished work to show.
When I got there, they all asked me where my show item was, and that tops were allowed because many are snowbirds and take them back north to quilt. A finished quilt takes up too much space in airline luggage.
Tomorrow is my 2nd meeting and I will take something. I am nervious to show my quilt to people I dont know really well yet.
