There is a super nice guild in Yancey co, North Carolina. I have been a few times and they are sooo friendly!

I belong to the most awesome Quilt Guild called the Quilter's Message Board!!! Right here!
I don't live where there is much of anything going on, especially anything fun. |
Yep, well, this here is my guild. I'm not much for meetings anymore, I sure don't like gossip, andthe Good Lord knows I'm not perfect in my stitchin' but no one here has EVER put me down. Now where else could that be happenin'?
I love quiltin' |
I've said it more then once this is the only guild I need or want. There's not a better group of people anywhere. This group is the best
Like my avatar say Freindship is like a quilt all warm and cozy |
Yep 4sure, agree 100%, this here's my guild and I luvs it :P

let's see, now ... no dues. no stupid, stinkin' rules. laughs aplenty. warm, friendly, nurturing, friendship for and from people all over the world. meets 24/7/365. i can go to meetings when i'm all dressed up or nekkid (except when tim and steve are around, of course! :oops: ). i don't have to fix my hair or makeup. no dues. no stupid, stinkin' rules. laughs aplenty. guess which guild i'm stickin' with? :P |
i'm giggling as i point out that this is a 3-year old post.
:lol: |
So sorry for your experience! I've been invited to join the local guild but I really don't see what they have to offer that I can't get here.Like other have said here it is free and all the time . You can ask questions and get answers with out getting slammed.

LOL...it IS a 3 year old post and I hope the original poster has found her "niche".
I just joined a Guild last month so it's too early to tell what it will turn out to be for me. A Guild is not for every one. I've never belonged to one before so I had nothing to compare it to...other than this Board (and they're pretty hard to beat, IMHO). I did feel a little unwelcome and uncomfortable at the Guild meeting but that could be because I'm pretty shy and it's not always easy for me to mix in. I like it here, personally, because I can "talk" if I want to...or not...and I don't feel pressured to do something that I don't feel comfortable doing. I'll give the Guild I joined a year and see how I like it after that. |
