The guild I joined a few months back is nice enough, the ladies are fun and mostly friendly, but I just don't feel that I fit in. Others that have joined after have brought a friend or two so they are all set, and seem to mingle easily, but that is something I've always found difficult. Here, I always feel welcome and there is always a response, whether about a quilting issue or something completely non-related. It makes me happy to think of you all as my guild.

I'm right there with all of you. Love this "guild." Talk about my "QUILT BOARD" friends to the people in my life all the time! Can't imagine not having this group to check in on at anytime it suits me. Such fun, friendship, inspiration, education, and sometimes just plain entertaining!

You can count me in also. Every since I started peeking in I have loved this board. You all are my quilting family. I have loved looking at all the wonderful things you all do. I can't imagine what it would be like if I didn't have all of you to talk to and laugh and cry with. Thank you all BrendaK

I joined a guild last year, but stopped going after 4-5 meetings because everyone seemed to have their friends to sit with and they weren't really interested in welcoming new people. Sometimes I go for months without commenting, but I read this board every day and other than the rare tiff, people seem friendly and willing to share knowledge and ideas. I don't need face to face contact to feel connected to other quilters.

I have had to give up driving also because of macular degeneration. I'm very fortunate that a friend picks me up and takes me to our local quilt guild and I do enjoy it, but I also enjoy this board every morning. So thanks folks for all your help and encouragement. We all need that.

I also appreciate all the help I have received from this board. I am not much for being "public" but many of you have helped me through pm and just reading your comments. Thank you to everyone for responding so quickly when anyone has a question because many times I am having the exact same problem and don't even need to ask! grammasharon
