Class Spotlight: Crayon Colored Quilt Blocks

Crayon Quilt
By: Margaret Cooper and Krystal Meldrum
Come learn how to use crayons to make beautiful quilt blocks.  Get inspired to see what our family created for several years at our Mother Daughter Sleepover Week with 6 different Crayon Quilts. This is a coloring, hands-on class.   You will learn how to color skintones, shade, and use gradients from a graduate of BYU’s Illustration & Design Program.  Kits will be provided for each person to finish one quilt block.  No sewing machines will be needed.  Any great line art from a coloring book or painting is great material for future quilt blocks!

Quinoa Salad

This salad was a hit at the Friday dinner!  Now you can make it for yourself!

QUINOA SALAD

3 medium ripe tomatoes, diced–put in large measuring cup or deep bowl and let juice settle to bottom

3 European (long) cucumbers, peeled and diced

1/8 to 1/4 cup finely chopped sweet onion

3 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 to 1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped

1 cup (more or less according to preference) cooked ancini de pepe pasta (this is the tiny round kind used to make frog eye salad), rinsed, drained, and chilled.

1 cup (more or less according to preference) cooked quinoa, chilled.

1/2 (or more to taste) of a 16 oz bottle of Kraft Zesty Italian dressing

Drain the juice from tomatoes and combine with cucumbers, onion, garlic, and cilantro.  Add dressing and toss.  Add ancini de pepe and quinoa.  Toss lightly.  Salt and pepper to taste.  Chill and serve.

As you can see, this recipe is not exact science–you can vary it according to taste–more or less pasta or grain, more veggies if you have them fresh from your garden, and more dressing if you need it.  If you need to make it gluten free, just leave out the pasta.  Enjoy!

Honoring Cody Towse

As part of our quilt show, we had a few quilts honoring Cody Towse.  He was an army medic that was killed in Afghanistan in May. The display and stories were very touching.  We are thankful for all of the men and women serving our country!
