Lightly coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Combine the sugar, honey, 3 tablespoons water, the vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large heavy-bottomed pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the sugar dissolves completely. Add the peanuts and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins simmering, about 1 minute. Increase the heat to medium high and continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the sugar mixture starts to dry out and clings to the nuts, 2 to 4 more minutes. Pour onto the prepared baking sheet and spread in an even layer. Bake the nuts until the sugar coating begins melting, about 5 minutes. Continue baking, stirring occasionally, until the nuts are golden brown and glazed in spots, 6 to 8 more minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and stir the nuts to distribute the caramel. Let cool on the baking sheet. Store, covered, at room temperature for up to 1 week. 2

Class participants receive a 20% discount on any purchase made during class. Where did quilting begin? Some of us believe that quilting began in New England as an outgrowth of a limited, affordable supply of fabric coming from Europe. Others credit the Amish and Mennonites. According to Rachel Pellman and Joanne Ranck in their book Quilts among the Plain People, quilting is an ancient art, dating back to Egypt, China and India. These cultures discovered the insulation value of layering three fabrics together, and created clothing using this technique. The Crusaders carried examples of this craft literally on their backs as quilted clothing under their armor and introduced quilting to England. Lest we get carried away and deny the Americans their due, the combination of patchwork and quilting did merge in early America. While exquisite quilts were made in Europe, the hardships of the New World and the scarcity of fabric caused the women to become resourceful, thus patchwork quilts were created from whatever scraps of clothing, bed sheets, drapes, flour sacks, or any other thing that resembled fabric. What s in a Name? Early in the 1900s, as more women became interested in quilting and wanted to expand the variety of blocks they used in their quilts, they would write to magazines and newspapers for ideas. Often the blocks were renamed to sound more current or to give credit to a city or state, and one block would end up having several different names. 5
