What to expect


Take a few minutes to watch the great video put together by Iowa Public Television, at the right, if you'd like to get a taste of what Patrick's classes at the Iowa State Fair are like.

Students will be expected to bring their own basic tools and threads needed for the class projects. Some information on threads can be found here.

Patrick Lose Returns to the 2014 Iowa State Fair



Patrick is excited to be returning to The Iowa State Fair again this year to teach in the Fabrics and Threads Department! We'll be offering lots of classes and events for you. Because we were well over capacity for last year's classes, we hope you'll register right away to ensure your seat.

We're really looking forward to seeing our old friends from last year and making lots of new ones this year so scroll through the class and event schedule, below, and join us for all the fun of quilting and creating at the great Iowa State Fair!

For all of the latest information, be sure to bookmark this page and check back often.
