The Tarheel Quilters Guild was started in 1981 and has grown steadily, with about 100 members. The Guild is a nonprofit organization whose primary objective is to promote and perpetuate the art of quilting. Our work is designed to benefit and educate all persons interested in preserving and advancing this art. The Tarheel Quilters Guild is a member of the National Quilt Association.

Membership is open to anyone 10 years of age or older and it not restricted to quilters only. Anyone interested in the art of quilting or who appreciates quilts and quilting may join. Visitors and guests are always welcome at the guild meetings. They are asked to sign in at the membership table before the meeting.
