Quilts, according to club president Lib Harris, are a part of our' cultural heritage. Organized in October 1981 with 12 members, the club has grown to include 20 members. One of the goals of the young club was to sponsor a quilt show. Although the Perquimans Club is not associated with any other organization, some of its members have joined the Four County Quilters Guild and the Tidewater Guild. A quilt and pillow raffle was held during the Indian Summer Festival, with win ners drawn and announced at the street dance. The winner of the quilt was Anne Olivia, who won a dresden orange peel quilt, which was the show favorite. Pillows were won by Ten Copeland of Hertford, Marie Myers of Elizabeth City, and Roxie Daniels of Colerain. Membership in the club is open to anyone interested in the art of quilting. Claim to fame..
