    This week, our members hop in the VFG time machine and travel back to the heyday of that old-fashioned American institution, the State Fair! Prize winners in the fabric category include: gingham, chambray, bandana prints, lightweight plaids & denim, and any novelty prints with a country or farm-theme.

    Showing off summer-casual attire for men and ladies, please include: short-sleeved shirts, seersucker suits, overalls; cotton dresses (and house-dresses), capris, shorts and tops. Accessories like pinafore aprons, straw hats or handbags, and "country-style" or walking shoes, from low-heeled sandals to work boots, are welcome to join in the fun. Meet you at the Ferris wheel!
