three construction classes and any of the creativity
and service classes for the project level in which they
are enrolled. Members and clubs are also encour-
aged to enter Educational Displays under the Home
Economics class divisions.
All items should be clean and in good repair. Judging
criteria are outlined in 4-H Sewing/Clothing
Construction Score Sheet (40-465), 4-H
Sewing/Clothing Creative Expression Score Sheet
(40-467). Judging standards are listed in Measuring
Up: Quality Standards for
Sewn Items/Projects (PNW 197). Skills appropriate
for each project level are listed in Sewing Skills
Checklist, CO677. Each entry will be evaluated on
ALL features, not just the skills listed in the respec-
tive enrollment levels.
A 4-H Sewing/Clothing Exhibit Card (available from
Extension office) must be securely attached to each
entry. The card requests
information about the exhibit(s) which is needed by
the judge in evaluation of the entry. All forms avail-
able from the Extension office
or the state 4-H website http://oregon.4h.oregon-
state.edu/resources/materials.html
Hangers and/or garment bags are removed from ex-
hibits prior to judging and might not be returned.
In addition to the 4-H Sewing/Clothing Exhibit Card,
each garment or article in the construction classes
must be labeled with the Member's
name, county, and project level. This label should be
typed or printed in indelible pencil or ink on a piece of
white fabric and sewn or
fused onto the bottom inside of each piece.
