The first quilt guild I belonged to I didn't like. I never got that warm fuzzy feeling or felt very welcome. It was only a few miles away. There is another guild here that is huge. I never went there but I have heard it is very clicky. I googled and found a guild that I love. I drive 30 to 40 minutes but I walked in not knowing anyone and felt welcome from the minute I walked in the door. I am now the treasurer and everyone there is so nice and friendly. Several of us meet for dinner before the meeting etc. Look around maybe try another guild.
We do charity projects and other things.
