I'm sure it's not going to be a popular thought, but I'm going to say it any way. On one hand I think it is nice that young women are getting together to share their modern quilting knowledge. and on the other hand separating them selves from other pre-existing guilds in their neighborhoods is sad. They are loosing the knowledge that is already there, and I am sure "re-inventing the wheel" as a very open minded friend of mine use to say. One of the reasons I join guilds is to learn from the members the things that have already been discovered. The other is to share the things that I am learning with them. Some may be open to the ideas, and some may not. In the 2 guilds I belong to there are women from late 20's to mid 80's, and one of our most adventurous quilters is in her 80's.<br />It's good to remember to not throw out the old just because there is new. A combination of the two creates wonderful things. These younger women could add the new spark that is needed to a already established guild. I have greatly enjoyed learning about all of the traditional methods of quilt making, and have a firm grip on my rotary cutting tools :o)<br />blessingsdebbie mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13500909471875374939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1876048627096284071.post-5905617233617733482010-11-05T22:07:12.803-04:002010-11-05T22:07:12.803-04:00I SO enjoyed visiting with you and can't wait ...I SO enjoyed visiting with you and can't wait until you're able to join us again. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05616509063994869028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1876048627096284071.post-40534293755856918772010-11-05T12:39:13.990-04:002010-11-05T12:39:13.990-04:00It was fun having you join me, Linda!
