Quilts, knitting make fair one to remember A good showing Just like in any other year, the quilt and knitting displays at the Brussels Fall Fair were certainly an attraction to behold. This year, however, the fair was held at the International Plowing Match. While the move wasn't without its challenges, it certainly paid off as tens of thousands took in the fair this year.
