Talented Sewers Compete in 2024 Iowa State Fair
The Senior Citizen Division created a variety of pieces for the Fabric and Threads Competition judged before the start of the 2024 Iowa State Fair. Each piece is judged upon design, workmanship and finishing. Participants created quilts individually or in a team.
The Fabric and Threads exhibits were on display every day of the Fair in the William C. Knapp Varied Industries Building sponsored by Principal.
