List of area Fairs for entering Sewing, Quilting, Needlepoint, and other entries

[bpgourmet@yahoo.com]

Here is some info on fairs this summer in the greater King County, Snohomish, Whatcom and Skagit counties.  In addition to seeing live animals, enjoying fair food, and shopping, there are also wonderful Exhibits and this includes in Sewing, Quilting, Dyeing, and other related categories.  Consider looking over the info on how to submit exhibits –– often judges provide really helpful feedback.  One will find info on days/times to drop off entries and then picking them up after the fair.

Also, most fairs need lots of volunteers.  You can volunteer to demonstrate in the sewing area and often one gets a free admission ticket and/or parking ticket.  Look for that information in the Sewing related links below.  I’ll post this info on the ASG Seattle Facebook page too.
