Open Class Home Furnishings Judging

Home furnishings features five different classes. “Machine and hand-embroidery” categories include everything from pillowcases to wall hangings. “Quilts” is a very popular class with categories such as piece quilting, baby quilt, and wall hanging. “Rugs” includes braided, latched, hooked, crocheted, woven, and miscellaneous. Finally, the “miscellaneous” class features about 40 different categories to choose from — everything from stuffed animals to counted cross stitch to centerpieces. There’s sure to be a category for your latest Internet-inspired craft project. Judging will be held Wednesday of the fair in the Open Class Exhibit Building at 9 a.m. In addition to awards of first, second, third, and fourth place in each category, a rosette is presented to the best of show. Exhibitors and fairgoers are invited to sit and watch the judging process.
