The East Cobb Quilters’ Guild presents Georgia Celebrates Quilts, a Biennial Quilt Show and Market. Running every other year (on even years), this prestigious event is Georgia’s largest continuing juried and judged quilt show, featuring over 300 quilts crafted by talented artists from across the state.
Visitors can view an impressive array of quilts, ranging from intricate artful wall quilts to classic bed coverings. Each piece showcases the unique creativity and skill of its maker.
The show will award handmade ribbons and over $4,000 in cash prizes. These accolades will be distributed by nationally certified judges, recognizing exceptional visual impact and technical prowess.
In addition to the quilt displays, attendees can shop with various vendors, offering quilting supplies and unique items. There will also be raffles, providing exciting chances to win prizes.
2024 Quilt Show Continues Despite Incident:
An out-of-control minivan struck the front of the Cobb County Civic Center as exhibitors were setting up for the “Georgia Celebrates Quilts” show. Thankfully, there were no injuries, though the glass door facade suffered significant damage. Repair crews are addressing the issue, and the area will be boarded up. Exhibitors and guests will be redirected to enter the Civic Center through alternative entrances.
