South Shore Stitchers Quilt Guild
A Brief History
The South Shore Stitchers was created in the fall of 1985
by Peggy Della Porta of Upper Township.
She felt there were many people in the area interested in quilting to
start a local guild.
The club grew quickly and in 2004 reached over 100 members.
The purpose of South Shore Stitchers is to preserve the heritage of
quilting, be a source of information and inspiration, and be a gathering
point for people with a common interest in quilt making.
Meetings are held at the Tuckahoe United Methodist Church, 112 State
Highway 49 in Tuckahoe, on the second Monday of each month.
Visitors are welcome. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the meeting begins at
7:00 p.m.
Quilt Shows
The South Shore Stitchers Quilt
Show is held every two-years during mid-October
over three days at the Upper Twp. Community Building in Cape May County
New Jersey. The next show is scheduled for Oct. 2019.
