Book Of Mormon Quilt

Historically,

the Mormon Pioneers settled in the Utah Valley over 150 years ago.....

Making Utah home to the largest LDS population,

jello, funeral potatoes, and our famous Book of Mormon.

Each block represents a story found in the Book Of Mormon!!

Combining applique and embroidery does require time and plenty of study,

maybe we"ll ask permission .....

"Can this count for scripture study?"

Don't miss sampling the recipe for the famous Mormon Funeral Potatoes...

aka Potatoes au Gratin.

2 bags frozen shredded potatoes

2 cups sour cream

1 square butter (melted)

2 cans cream of chicken soup

2-3 green onions chopped

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

2 cups grated cheddar cheese

Mix all ingredients together

pour into 9/13 baking dish

top with crushed cornflakes and more cheese (optional)

Bake 350 45-60 min.

First Priority

While stitching and quilting are great......

being a Grandma is Dana's first priority.

She fit her grandson Hagen in for a quick haircut in the shop.

also, Part of being a Grandma....

is adjusting patterns to fit all of her grandkids.

This is 1 yr old Ellie....

wearing a pillowcase dress.

She was quite the model!!

GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN!!!!

Every girl dreams of the perfect get- a - way...

shopping, eating and girl talk!

This dream does not include men or children... (that would be a nightmare)

Who can really eat or spend money with a man around?

After all they really don't understand our motto,

"Never sorry for what you buy... Only sorry for what you don't".

We brain wash them to think...

Shopping is not fun... It is a necessity!
