| I
have been quilting for about 20 years but still have not achieved much
of a state of proficiency. I forgive myself for such inadequacies and forge ahead. I will never win a prize for my quilts. I will never enter them in any kind of contest or display them at a quilt show. I do enjoy working on them. But, even more, I enjoy the wonderful women I have met in my guilds. I belong to two guilds in Olympia, Washington. One is called Washington Stars Quilt Guild. It is a large guild with about 170 members give or take a few. I am the secretary of the guild. I have been doing this job for a couple of years now. In conjunction with WSQG, I belong to two small bees - one is called Sewciety Girls. I don't meet with them often as they meet during the day while I work. The other one is called Evening Stars because they meet in the evening. The focus in Evening Stars is hand quilting. I am hoping to get better at this and actually, someday, finish the quilt from the first quilting class I took about 20 years ago in Pt. Angeles. Of course I now do not like the fabric choices for this quilt but I am determined to finish it sometime. The other guild I belong to is called Quilter's Quorum. It is a smaller guild that limits membership to 50. It meets one Saturday a month and is low key. Both WSQG and QQ have a retreat once a year. WSQG is in May and QQ is in August. Both retreats are at a retreat center near Roy, Washington. Each retreat is 2 - 3 nights long. They are great fun and extremely productive. I have not taken pictures of my own quilts so I am substituting pictures of quilts that are similar to what I have done.
