I was in charge of programs for our guild a few years ago. Check with other guilds in nearby towns and see who they brought to their guilds and what was the reaction to the program. Would they recommend them?
What is your budget? Our guild has brought in "famous" people in the past, but now many of them won't show up for less than $1000 after we paid transportation and lodging. Can you split transportation and lodging with a nearby group if you meet on consecutive days? They can visit your guild one day, another guild the next.
Maybe there is a quilt shop owner who would come and show a snippet of a new technique or give demos on some of the latest tools and gadgets.
We have also done a "round robin" where guild members show a new technique for about 15 minutes. We might have 2 or 3 demos going on at the same time and the guild divides into smaller groups and rotates from station to station.
And since you are in Kentucky, Paducah isn't too far away and neither is Louisville. Lots of talented people there.
Look for back issues of quilt magazines, you may find some quilters profiled there who live close by.
And always have a back up plan in case someone backs out at the last minute do to illness or bad weather.
