Great thread, I just checked into guilds in my area last week and from what I could tell there were two of them ...The first one seemed to be bigger..However, the second one was called "Modern quilt guild"... I quickly joined their online forum to check it out.. As I prefer artsy to traditional quilting..
You guys have given me looots of questions to ask before I even decide to try the first meeting lol...I don't think I would care for doing group projects on a deadline at all.. I want to learn new things.. Classes, sewing, socializing were my main goals.
I do know they meet once a month ( at a members house, from what I gather).And it seems to be a small group of regulars..Their web site doesnt seem very active..However, I have seen pics of them sitting around sewing machines at meetings lol
Interesting,that there are so many different opinions on guilds... I must research more lol
