Kentucky State Fair - Textiles

Lots and lots of wonderful quilters shared their quilts with us!!

Just like we heard often in the department - there are more!!!

The Special Entries division holds a special place for us, featuring two distinct classes: Group entries and Individual entries. This year, Lisa Leming took the top honor among group entries, and Regina C, Amanda RoBear, and Mary Jo Stivers excelled as individual entrants.

Although Junior Entries were down, the energy and interest shown by young people in the North Wing Lobby suggest this is merely a temporary decline. Winners in the Junior Division are as follows: Best Junior Quilted Entry - Mackenzie Jackson; Best Junior Handwoven Entry - Ruby Jones; Best Junior Knit Entry - Eleanore Bosarge; Best Junior Crochet Entry - Lilly Mattingly; Best Junior Entry Age 11 and Under - Emerson Nelson; Best Junior Entry Age 12 thru 17 - Regan Geary; Junior Sweepstakes - Marin Kleinman.
