I'm a 4-h'er too. Many years ago. I was on the Indiana State Fair website and someone advertised making collage of ribbons, etc. in a wall hanging.
I have a grand daughter in 4-h and quite a sewer. In our area, 4-h is making a comeback. Non-livestock members can exhibit in multiple areas in a project. ie Photography...they can take black & white prints, color prints, and salon prints in their level. In other words, 3 projects. Last year my grand daughter won overall fair achievement with 21 projects. She is hooked.

Learned sewing in 7th grade on treadle machine. Sewed all my own
clothes & also my daughter's while she grew up. Daughter does not
like to sew, but GD can do anything, & she has been extremely involved
in 4-H in many areas. Kudos for 4-H.
