Family Favorites can be any dish that families enjoy made in a more healthy way. The theme could also be used to teach the importance of family meal times. Some 4-H members might consider their family heritage and focus on a dish that represents this. Obviously, there are many ways to have fun and creative with this theme! If you want to be a star in the kitchen, try the food & nutrition project! You ll learn kitchen and cooking safety, how to prepare nutritious meals and snacks, and meal ideas to reduce your risk of disease. Learning experiences focus on nutrition, food purchasing, food preparation, food safety, and related careers.
10 FCS CORNER page 10 Clothing & Textiles Project Storyboard theme for 2017 The 4-H Fashion Storyboard is an industry-inspired method of displaying original designs. The storyboard tells the story of the designer s idea. The storyboard includes original illustrations, flats, and more to promote the design. Do you like fashion and being creative? The 4-H Clothing and Textiles project is perfect for you. In the 4-H Clothing and Textiles Project you can learn to sew, how to be a good consumer when purchasing clothes, and the art of designing clothes and accessories, and careers in the fashion industry. The theme for 2017 is Inspired by Music - Whether you're heading to a concert, going dancing with friends or just hanging out at home listening to your favorite tunes, let your style choices reflect your musical taste with designs inspired by melody, tune, harmony, composition and song. From the rapid lively tempo of country music banjos, the slow sad moan of the blues, or the edgy upbeat rhythm of hip hop, there is a melodic palette for everyone. Categories. Each storyboard should be entered into one category. A 4-H member may enter only one storyboard. Wearable: Clothing that can be worn. Includes items such as pants, shorts, skirts, blouses, sweaters, coats, dresses, etc. Accessory: Includes items such as belts, purses, bags, hats, etc. Jewelry: Includes necklaces, bracelets, rings, and earrings.

11 page 11 Clothing & Textiles Project FCS CORNER Duds to Dazzle 2017 During Duds to Dazzle, teams of 3 to 5 receive textiles and each team has 60 minutes to create a new product using items from the supply closet. The teams then present their item to a team of judges. You may also be tested on what you have learned about how the clothing & textile industry impacts the environment, specifically the waste stream. Trashion Show 2017 In the Trashion Show, intermediate and senior 4-H members use their design skills to create and exhibit a recycled/reused garment created from items that would otherwise be thrown in the trash.
