Meetings are held the third Friday of each month at St. James Community Center from 9:30 am. until 3:00 p.m.  Feel free to join us and bring your own lunch (sometimes we plan a special lunch.)

Yearly dues are $40.00 which provides for meeting set up/take down, charity projects, and the annual Holiday Party. Please look at our other tabs to learn more about our programs.

Community Service

Each year the St. James Quilters select charities that could benefit from handcrafted quilts.  In the past the quilters have donated to charities such as Waccamaw Boys and Girls Club, Providence Emergency Shelter for Teens, Catholic Charities, Novant Hospital, Samara’s Village, and Cape Fear Hospice.  In 2021 the quilters began making Military Appreciation Quilts, which were donated to local veterans.

      Quilters Too

      One Stitch at a Time

       

       

      Welcome to Quilters Too at St. James! We are dedicated to sharing our knowledge and passion for quilting with those who quilt or would like to know how to quilt. We enjoy working together to learn new techniques, solve problems, share knowledge and sew along together. Quilters Too grew from our parent club, St. James Quilters, when their membership became too large to support all the members plus those who wanted to learn to quilt. We organized ourselves in March 2013 with a small beginning group. As of February 2014 we have 16 members. Some of us have been quilting a long time, some just a bit and some have never quilted but wanted to learn. All are welcome here..

      Our regular meetings are once a month on the third Tuesday from 10:00 am until 4:00 pm at the St. James Community Center.
