Natural Fiber (Seniors Only): The purpose of the Fashion Show Natural Fiber Contest is an opportunity for 4-H members to exhibit the skills learned related to Cotton and Wool/Mohair. To recognize 4-H members who do outstanding work in a fashion and interior design project that includes the study of cotton or wool, and mohair.
