It was all about charity work. And it was never enough... do more, more, more.LA Paylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06553491768819243802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7567148070676790205.post-7444818595655725072016-07-21T10:08:33.553-05:002016-07-21T10:08:33.553-05:00Yes, I agree with Julie.

I'd say raise a ruckus about either education or the retreat, but that will probably put you in charge--something you should seriously consider before you beat your drums. However, if you're okay with that, get some backers before you get the drums out and then everyone beat in tune!Mary Marcottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14569619947909529203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7567148070676790205.post-84153297371618694602016-07-19T18:50:22.874-05:002016-07-19T18:50:22.874-05:00If a guild doesn't fit the wants/needs of a me...If a guild doesn't fit the wants/needs of a member, then there's no need to renew that membership - just my two cents worth.Quiltdivajuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15593385265961892847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7567148070676790205.post-31660125117189370092016-07-19T08:55:34.709-05:002016-07-19T08:55:34.709-05:00I agree with you - guild quilting doesn't equa...I agree with you - guild quilting doesn't equal charity quilting only. Quilters are a generous group already whether as part of an organization or as an individual. Not to spend some of the guild money on education for its members is doing a disservice. patty a.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01861433552460661701noreply@blogger.com
