As a fill in program for a winter speaker cancellation our guild had us count each person by six, then we had to meet up with those of the same number and make a list of sewing/quilting tips. One person was in charge of writing them down. We were given a specific amount of time. Then we regrouped and each group choose 2-3 items from our list to read out loud to the group. The guild secretary kept the list and posted it in our newsletter. Even as a long time quilter/sewer I learned several new ideas. Example: Did you know there is a right and wrong side of a sewing needle? If having a problem threading the eye, turn the needle over and try from the other side. Who knew?! It was not only fun and informative but also by counting out it made for better scoslization with members.
We also chose one long time member to show us her quilting journey. New members are often amazed that expert quilters had shaky beginnings just the same as every one else.
Have fun and not be afraid to think outside the box. You never know what may inspire you to try something new. And kudos to you for jumping in with an offer to help. As past President(twice), Secretary and treasurer for my guild, I know it is hard to find volunteers.
