Definitely check it out! I joined the guild about three years ago and have not regretted it. I was a wannabe quilter back then but now I would consider myself at least an intermediate when it comes to piecing. I have yet to do the actual quilting on any of my quilts either. We have several long arm quilters in the group who do beautiful work so I let them do their thing while I do mine - piecing!
We have had some awesome guest speakers at the meetings and they usually hold a workshop on the day after where they teach a technique. I have learned a lot from them and from other members of the guild. I think you'll enjoy it.
