bummer

Newspaper said there was a quilt guild that was meeting at a church near me
on the 2nd Tues of each month 7pm...Come visit! Show and Tell, BOM, Bees
and much much more....come be part of the growing quilting community in this
area.
so i went.
Didn't find a soul there. and nothing in the church bulletin saying
where/when they would meet, or even mentioning them at all. Jazzercise was
there and a bible study group.

sigh. was so looking forward to a group nearer to me.

No contact phone number in the listing? That is a bummer.
How is the group going to grow if you can't find them?
That is weird.

That is a bummer! There was no other info in the newspaper? Have you
considered starting your own quilting bee. I've been thinking about it.
There is a guild 20 miles away from me but I hear that it has a large
membership. I would like something smaller. I do hope you find more info
on this guild close to your home.

I've been thinking about it. There is a guild 20 miles away from me but I
hear that it has a large membership. I would like something smaller.

Our large guild does a cool thing called "neighborhood circles". Basically,
it's a very small group that meet together outside of the guild meeting.
(Mine has six members currently, but has had between five and nine in the
past -- others have more or less as the group desires). We get the best of
both worlds that way -- the excellent speakers and classes a large guild can
afford, but also the tight-knit friendships and support of a small group.

Our neighborhood circle has a ton of fun. We do potluck meetings and show
and tell, we go to quilt shows as a group, we do "play dates" where we pick
a topic we'd like to have fun with and go at it (next play date is fabric
paints, paint sticks, and stamping), we go to at least one quilt class a
year as a group, we do challenges, we go out to lunch and dinner together,
we support each other through thick and thin, and generally have a great
time in each other's company. I highly recommend a group like that!

i tried to start a neighborhood one two years ago... put messages in the
neighborhood newsletter and such. got one reply and she couldn't meet at
any of the times i could... she has since moved....
would LOVE to have something like that! Even have enough room for them to
come here and make a mess....

and Sharon, i was thinking as i sat waiting and then wandered around that
maybe they wont start til sept, but when i came home and looked at the
article again it was a July clipping and it says "of every month" so i
think maybe they all hid from me?! lol who knows...

Could you ring the newspaper ad. department, Kellie?
They would have the original, in some form. I would imagine it was a
mis-print on the paper's part.
Have a bit of a 'ferret', it probably does exist somewhere/sometime!!

Howdy!

Here's the guild web page:

http://www.tricountyquiltguild.org/

Looks like they meet the first Monday; maybe the paper got the wrong info.

I listen & talk to some of the members on a Tx. Yahoo group. Nice folks.
