The Tar River Piecemakers Quilting Guild was founded in 2000 by a group of 9 women (Helen Alston, Carolyn Batts, Rachel Cowley, Susie Crumpler, Sue Fry, Louise Janelle, Ann Layton, Ramona Orzell & Teresa Pierce) 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.
