The members of the East Cobb Quilters\u2019 Guild (ECQG) are determined to offer something for everyone. It doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019re a brand-new quilter or an award-winning maker,\u00a0 whether you have a day job and need an evening meeting time or if your quilt vibe is modern, traditional, or something else entirely, the friendly folks at the ECQG have your back.<\/p>

With 344 members, the ECQG is certainly among the largest guilds in the country, and the strength of those numbers enables the organization to do a lot of things really well. For starters, members have a choice of attending an evening meeting, or a day meeting, and the national speakers and teachers the guild brings in often address members in both time slots.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

When it comes to charity work, these quilters are so enthusiastic they\u2019ve surpassed their own goals. For example, the guild set a 2023 goal to make 325 placemats for Atlanta\u2019s Meals on Wheels. As of this writing, they\u2019ve made 524. They also work with Children\u2019s Healthcare of Atlanta to support a program to make small cloth bags for seriously ill children. As the children go to appointments, they collect beads or necklaces for each visit, and the children can use the handmade \u201cBeads of Courage\u201d bags to hold them. When the members delivered 821 bags, 521 above their goal of 300, they nearly overwhelmed the organization.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cWhen you see these bags just filled with beads, it blows your mind that these children have been through so much,\u201d Linda Agnello, a ECQG member, said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

One possible theory explaining why this particular guild\u2019s charity program is so incredibly successful has a lot to do with communication and empathy. Every year, individuals from the charities the guild supports provide a lecture for members where they share photos and meaningful stories of how their donations made an impact.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThe charities come in and tell us what happens, and you just can\u2019t help but feel something, and when you feel it, then you want to be a part of it,\u201d Steve Agnello, Linda\u2019s husband and a ECQG member, explained \u201cIt\u2019s not always easy to hear about all these issues. But it makes you look at society and say there is a need here, and you can\u2019t ignore it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Linda and Steve Agnello with Linda\u2019s quilt “Circle-ish” (2023), which Steve quilted on a domestic machine. It was Linda’s first experience with curved piecing. The name was inspired by a student-invented word to describe watching his classmates organize into circles for a singing game. Almost every group was waiting for a couple of kids to complete the circle.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Linda and Steve Agnello are both active in making items for the charities, but this husband-and-wife team are also co-chairs for the guild\u2019s next big quilt show. And this particular show is truly going to be big. Over 3,000 people attended the 2022 event. Those attendees got to see 344 quilts on exhibit that were part of the members-only competition. The guild hires experienced, certified judges who award cash prizes to winning quilts. In addition, so many of the members offered to volunteer for the three-day event that managing all the human hours requires a finely tuned system. There are 600 slots for two and a half hour shifts, and over 180 members volunteered to work. Planning for the next Georgia Celebrates Quilts\u00ae 2024 show is well underway. It will be held at the Cobb County Civic Center in Marietta, June 6-8, 2024.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cNo doubt it\u2019s a job, but we try to have a lot of fun,\u201d Steve adds. Past president and past quilt-show chair Linda Bailey jokingly explained that Steve was one of her best recruits.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u201cBasically, Steve gives us directions, and we all follow,\u201d Linda Bailey says with a smile. The team of Steve and Linda Agnello work with prior quilt show chairs as mentors, who provide them with direction.

There is one more curious contributor to the success of this guild \u2013 and it\u2019s surprisingly the library! ECQG has over 700 books in its collection, which is managed by guild member Merle Anderson, a former librarian. The secret to its success is online access. Every book is available to preview online, so members can save time by searching titles at home and then requesting books at the meeting.

The collection covers classic and timely quilt history books, as well as just about every category of how-to. Fortunately, their meeting venue hosts at the Catholic Church of St. Ann in Marietta have allowed the guild to permanently store the books onsite.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The church recently completed a major new addition, so the meeting space for ECQG is state of the art. Linda Bailey explains that the great lighting and well-thought-out audio visual technology make the meetings better for everyone. But beyond a great space, it\u2019s more likely that the friendly folks and their well-oiled programs, outreach, and quilt show are what attract, and retain, so many delighted quilters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
