These are some of the quilts and other textile projets I entered in the Bell County Youth Fair. I entered all but three catogories in clothing and textiles, because I was going for the Polly-Esther award. I didn't get it this year, but it encourages me all the more to work harder next year. But my favorite part is the fashion revue, where you have to sew a garment, wear it, and be interveiwed by two judges. They judge you not only on how it looks but also on how it fits you, your knowlege of sewing, how well you present yourself, appropriateness for age and style of your garment, and interveiwing skills. The first year I placed third, last year I won champion, and this year I placed reserve champion, but unlike last year I received all excellent marks but one.
