Activities and Benefits
We have monthly meetings and lectures, workshops, we participate
in community outreach projects, and host an occasional Quilt Show
and Day of Sharing. Many of our members belong to Quilting Bees,
participate in our Quilt Challenges and make use of our extensive
library. Members also receive our monthly newsletter, "Quilting
Times", which can also be found on this website.
The Guild’s community outreach efforts include neonatal quilts
year-round for Nash General Hospital and Heritage Hospital;
Patriotic Quilts for wounded soldiers, adoption quilts, and various
other charity/outreach venues throughout the year.
Mission statement
Tar River Piecemakers Quilting Guild was founded in 2000
by a group of 7 women to promote their love of quilt-making and to
provide fellowship with other quilters. Our main purpose as a
non-profit organization is to promote and perpetuate the art of
quilting. The work of the Guild is designed to benefit and educate
all persons interested in preserving, continuing and advancing this
art. Our challenge is to encourage continuing interest in the art in
all its forms and to promote the art by teaching and sponsoring
workshops and exhibits.
