    What about how to tie a quilt? That method seems to be enjoying a resurgence.

    Our guild does something similar. The person in charge ususally asks those that have shown somehing that others really liked. It also depends on what is popular in your area. Some members volunteer to teach a class. We have a large guild. We charge $10 for a half day class. All the money goes to the guild. We just had our 2 day event. The guild made about $1200.

    LOL, a 10 minute class! That wouldn't be bad, but I never though about anyone being "taught" how to tie.

    What is the format for the day? Half hour class & move onto the next one? Or in the same class all day? Do they pay anything for the class? Does the guild have other classes throughout the year? Is then the only education day for the whole year?

    What facilities are you using? Is water available?

    What is the makeup of the guild members? Beginners? Traditional or art quilters?

    Wouldn't teach anything the LQS is teaching.

    Survey the guild membership for their interests.

    Can the guild afford to pay for an outside teacher? Or is this all done by guild members?
