if you type quilt guilds into your search engine you will find a list by state click on your state then scroll through the list to find the one nearest to you- often they have a web site or a contact person then you can find out when they meet and where- often guilds have membership drives, they also *generally* invite new people to come to a meeting and see what they are about then offer the opportunity to join. our local guild has a membership 'tea' in September every year but anyone can 'visit' a meeting during the year- then if they want to come back they are asked to join.

My guild asks new people to introduce themselves. But don't leave it at that - find a table to sit at, introduce yourself to everyone there, ask them lots of questions about themselves, what they like to sew, etc. I also walk around to different tables to visit with people, even if I don't know them. Volunteer to help on committees, take things to show and tell. get involved. Hopefully you will find a fun guild to join. They can be a lot of fun.
