4-H Project Workshop: Intro to Food & Clothing Projects

by

Saturday, May 4, 2019 from 10:00am to noon at the Licking County Extension Office.

The Licking County 4-H Food & Fashion Board will be hosting workshops designed for beginning project members who are taking food or clothing projects for the first or second time. Both sessions will run simultaneously, so member will need to pick one workshop or the other. They will not be able to attend both. A parent or the project helper is required to attend to learn along with the 4-H member. Members should bring their project book with them, but are also encouraged to bring other items they may wish to get help with (maybe they have a sewing machine they need to know how to thread or have questions on a recipe for their foods project). Please RSVP by Monday, April 29th at 740.670.5315. More info can be found here.

Community Service Opportunity – Quilting for a Cause

by

A quilt is a special gift, one that can spread comfort to those in need. Through their generosity, the Hope Quilting Club has donated over 5,000 handmade blankets to those in the greatest of need. Hope Lutheran has partnered with Lutheran World Relief Organization to insure that families around the world will receive some of life’s essentials.
The beneficiary of these gifts come from chronic poverty and conflict. Your help could change lives.

How You Can Help…
Whether you have a few extra minutes to spare or a lot of extra fabric to share, a little generosity goes a long way when it comes to quilting for charity. No experience necessary.

  • Come to Hope Lutheran Church, located at 15370 Meridith State Road, Sunbury, OH, on the last full weekend of the month.
  • Have little ones at home or a troop you would like to get started with charitable giving? We have many options for them to contribute. Learn how to hem, tie knots for the quilts and thread needles.
  • Don’t know how to sew? No problem! We have volunteers that can show you the basics of sewing and there are other ways you can volunteer.
  • Pick up a quilting kit: We have material you can cut into 10” square blocks. You can cut them at home and bring them in on Saturday and help stitch them together.
  • Donate material: we accept all material with the exception of knit and wool.

Have questions? Please contact us.

2018 4-H Special Interest, Food and Clothing Project Judging Schedule

by

Please check out the schedule for project judging for Special Interest, Foods and Clothing Projects. We ask members to please arrive 15 minutes before their scheduled judging time to allow time to get checked in and fill out the top portion of their score sheet. 4-H Committee members will be available to help members check in.

We suggest you park on the west side of C-tec and enter through the door by the preschool playground. There will be signs to help direct you to the judging area.

Reminder: Quilting and Cake Decorating projects are Creative Arts projects and will be judged on Tuesday with the other Special Interest Projects, NOT on Wednesday with the Food and Clothing Projects. If you have questions on which day your project will be judged, please reference the Licking County 4-H Project Requirements document. It will list under “County Requirements” which judging day you should attend for your project.
