Why should that stop y'all from still going on with the quilt group?

Is "work/job" and "quilting group" intertwined somehow?

Can't you all get together at alternating homes or something? It is not the fault of any of the quilting buddies that some got let go and others didn't. Is that the issue?

I don't go tp any classes, nor do I belong to quilting guild. I learn by doing things on my own. I have alos learned alot from this board. There are all sorts of patterns out there, some easy, some difficult. Pick patterns that you like and start cutting the pieces out and sewing, if you come across something that you don't understand, ask on the board.

Our senior citizen center has quilters and i belong to a guild. also meet with fellow church members twice a month at the church for crafting, our library has a meeting room and we meet there once a month. i am on SS so my resources are limited but you should be able to find a mentor and group to sew with. this board is excellent and will always help!!! :thumbup:

Since you will no longer be working together what is wrong with a once a week get together - take turns at each other's home? or maybe the library has a little room where you can meet? or Sr. center or nursing home area? but keep on meeting so you don't lose contact with each other - friends are as important to keep as your learnig to quilt so continue to do it "together" even if it is not at your job............. best wishes and happy years of quilting and learning ahead!
