It's Fair Time

I am not going to give a plug for any particular County or State Fair.......but I do want to remind you all that there are LOT"S of great sewing categories to enter in most of them and it's not only fun but it's fun to show off your stuff and win ribbons, prizes or money!!! And, I will say it again.....it's a great opportunity to show kids that not everything is made in China (or wherever). Please help keep homecrafts alive by entering your fair. It usually only costs a couple dollars......but the rewards of displaying your skills are priceless (hey, that sounds like a credit card commercial). Keep us posted what you enter....and we can all be rooting for you! Entries are due SOON....so go online and check your favorite fair listings. Good Luck! Joy

I wish I could find one in my city, Saskatoon. But I haven't ever heard of anything like that. I will have to open my eyes/ears more now. Sounds like fun!

You seem to have two separate events. The Saskatoon Fall Fair is about livestock, but the Saskatoon Exhibition has a "Creative Home Art" category. It might be worth looking into.

Canada seems to have different traditions in this area. Our county and state fairs are important to 4-H as well as to adults, and have a really wide variety of competitions and events, including a carnival midway with rides and games. Your events appear to be more specific and smaller.

Wow, I can't believe you looked that up~ Both of them aren't really the same as a Fair and are more about selling than competing. Nobody buys anything anyways, so the super high cost of getting a table is not worth it IMHO for the kinds of things I make. Maybe I will have to check with our history museum, I think they do some things.
