Help QNN Write the Book on Guilds
One of the most wonderful aspects of quilting is the sisterhood of quilters, and guilds are the perfect example. One can go anywhere in the world, find a guild and have instant friendships. We at QNN have noticed a lack of readily available information on starting and growing a guild, so we're asking for your help in collecting and making this information available to those who wish to start or further enhance their guild.
We are looking to create a guild page on QNN, much like a manual, written by and for QNN viewers. If you have experience with any of the following aspects of guilds, we'd like to hear from you. And if we missed anything, do let us know. Please submit your contributions to guilds@quiltersnewsnetwork.com.
