4-H Clothing Project
The 4-H Clothing Construction Project is designed to develop construction skills and knowledge in selecting fabrics, inner fabrics, patterns, and other supplies for constructing projects and garments. Members will learn to determine correct pattern size and type. Youth in this project will learn consumer skills and save family dollars while developing poise and self-confidence. Members can participate in visual presentation, judging, records, Fashion Revue, and exhibits.
