A quilt by artist Lucy Peterson Watkins. On the cover: A view of 100 North in Logan created into a photo-on-fabric piece by artist Lucy Peterson Watkins.

FROM THE EDITOR

few years ago a friend inspired me to make a quilt. I don’t really remember why this all came about, but I think it had something to do with her secretly being pregnant and making baby blankets as “gifts.” I decided to make a rag quilt and she came with me to pick out the perfect combination of brown and turquoise flannel materials, all polka dots, clouds and swirls. On Saturday mornings we would hang out in her living room for hours cutting, clipping

and sewing while watching movie after movie. I have a tendency to clog sewing machines somehow, and my friend was always there to fix that. I complained over bunching material and pieces not lining up quite right, but since I usually don’t have the patience to unpick anything, I kept going. The end product? Well, it’s not perfect, but it’s mine and I can say I made it. I ended up falling in love with sewing quilts and got my own machine that Christmas. The next year I made 10 more. Although I don’t do it enough, I love looking at fabric, finding colors and designs that work together and seeing it all come together into something I can snuggle with.

The point of all this? Well, I know how much time and effort goes into one of my very simple quilts (I’m the queen of squares, and not much else). So when I look at projects by local artist Lucy Peterson Watkins (page 8), I’m amazed at her ability to combine fabric, photographs and embroidery into original art. Her quilts use material, a needle, thread and so much more. She’s even able to weave in local scenes of places we all know around here. You may have seen her around at Gallery Walks and she’s going to spend the winter getting ready for next year’s Summerfest. I can’t even imagine the hours she’ll spend working. — Manette Newbold

The troupe is seeking princesses (and princes of course), singers, dancers, courtiers, town folk, country folk and

especially older men who can sing and dance. For details and an audition form visit www.musictheatrewest.org. Please prepare a one-minute audition song that shows your abilities. Accompanist will be provided. Dancers will audition Oct. 26 at 6:30. Production dates are Feb. 9 to 15, 2012.

The Department of Theatre Arts at Utah State University presents “Step on a Crack,” a play by Suzan Zeder, in several public performances in addition to select performances for young audiences. Public performances begin Friday, Oct. 14, at 7 p.m. at the Caine Lyric Theatre. “We are delighted USU will be re-introducing theater for young audiences this season with ‘Step on a Crack,’ said Matt Omasta, director of the play and faculty member in USU’s Department of Theatre. “Thanks to the generous support of the Marie Eccles Caine Foundation, we are able to provide private showings and transportation to the production for several local schools.” “Step on a Crack” follows the story of a young girl named Ellie Murphy who lived happily with her widowed father, Max, until he marries Lucille, who becomes Ellie’s stepmother. Ellie turns to her imaginary friends, Lana and Frizbee, to escape real-life problems. Ellie’s trials, through imagination, lead her to discovering what it’s like to really be alone and Ellie begins to come to terms with herself and her need for a mother. “My favorite part of ‘Step on a Crack’ would have to be Ellie’s imaginary world she creates for herself in the play,” said Jason West, USU junior majoring in theater education who plays Max Murphy. “I believe many children who have been through something hard often find themselves in their own little world in search of comfort they can’t get elsewhere.” The director said the production speaks to everyone. “The play, which presents the story of a young girl learning to overcome challenges

in her personal life and, more importantly, to conquer her own internal fears and strug-

gles, speaks not only to young people but to people of all ages who will attend the performance,” Omasta said. Tori Benson, a USU sophomore majoring in theater education, plays Ellie Murphy. “‘Step on a Crack’ is hilarious,” Benson said. “It’s also clever, witty and sends a great message to the audience in a creative and fun way. I am so grateful to be a part of it.” The cast also includes Ashley Underwood, who plays the Voice, Colton Iverson and Jessica Jackson who play Ellie’s imaginary friends, Frizbee and Lana, and Meg Campbell who portrays Ellie’s stepmother, Lucille. “Step on a Crack” is rated E for Everyone.

a New York Obie Award, a Drama Desk Award for Unique Theatre Experience, and a Special Citation from Best Plays. The young per-

formers “make a rhythm out of anything we can get our hands on that makes a sound,” says co-creator/director Luke Cresswell. Stiff-bristle

brooms become a sweeping orchestra; Zippo lighters flip open and closed to create a fiery fugue; wooden poles thump and clack in a rhyth-

mic explosion. STOMP uses everything but conventional percussion instruments – trashcans, tea chests, plastic bags, plungers, boots and hubcaps – to fill the stage with compelling and infectious rhythms.

Reviews by The Associated Press

★ ‘Real Steel’

Director // Shawn Levy Starring // Hugh Jackman, Evangeline Lilly and Dakota Goyo Rated // PG-13 for some violence, intense action and brief language A bad idea is a bad idea, even dressed up with all the computer effects and heavy-metal action that Hollywood can buy. And the idea of robots boxing is a bad one, creating some embarrassingly awful moments for Hugh Jackman as an ex-fighter scraping by in the near future as a promoter of brawling machines that have taken over the sport from human boxers. Then his 11-year-old son (Dakota Goyo) joins him on the road after the boy’s mother dies. Then the kid stumbles on an outdated sparring robot in a junkyard. Then the squabbling father and son bond as their little ‘bot becomes a sensation on the fight circuit and gets an underdog shot against the world champion. Jackman’s generally out-acted by the robots, whose bouts are deafening and bruising, more like demolition derbies than sporting events. A horribly predictable mash-up of “Rocky,” “The Champ” and Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots, “Real Steel” puts director Shawn Levy (the “Night at the Museum” movies) in contention with fellow robot handler Michael Bay for the title of worst blockbuster filmmaker in show business. 127 minutes.

★★★★ ‘50/50’

Director // Jonathan Levine Starring // Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Seth Rogen and Anna Kendrick Rated // R for language throughout, sexual content and some drug use It could have been agonizingly mawkish: The story of a young man with everything ahead of him who learns he has a rare form of spinal cancer, one that he only has a 50 percent chance of surviving. Instead, “50/50” is consistently, uproariously funny, written with humanity and insight and directed with just the right tone every time. Comedy writer Will Reiser crafted the script based on his own cancer diagnosis when he was in his early 20s. His words are filled with dark humor and a wry recognition of the gravity of this situation, but also with real tenderness. And director Jonathan Levine pulls us into this intimate world through an abiding naturalism. He’s made a film about cancer that’s effortlessly affecting. It helps that he has Joseph Gordon-Levitt, an actor of great range and subtlety, in the starring role as Adam. He goes through all the requisite stages of denial, frustration, fear and eventually acceptance, but he does so with such believable imperfection, he never feels like a saint or a martyr. But Adam has an ideal balance in his lifelong best friend and co-worker, played by Seth Rogen in the kind of garrulous and lovably crass role Rogen has built a career on. But Gordon-Levitt’s most moving scenes are with the delightful Anna Kendrick as Adam’s young, eager-beaver therapist. 100 minutes.

ris (Clooney) is one of two Democratic presidential nominees, vying for the DNC’s nomination. The fight with his opponent is getting ugly. To help him navigate the treacherous waters of political wrangling are Paul Zara (Philip Seymour Hoffman), a stubborn yes-man who’s built a career out of mudslinging, and Stephen Myers (Ryan

Gosling), a wild-eyed optimist who really believes in Mike Morris. He believes in the man and his platforms, and will do anything to help him get elected. On the other side of the race is Tom Duffy (Paul Giamatti), a rascally campaign supervisor who will pull out every last trick in the book to upend Morris’ campaign. Stuck somewhere in the middle is

people’s lives like they’re chess pieces to be moved. If someone, who has spent their life building a career gets in the way, well then they’re collateral damage. Everything is sacrificed for the “good” of the campaign. It doesn’t matter if you want to run a clean campaign, it’ll eventually get dirty. What’s so surprising about this movie is how matterof-fact they are about their mudslinging. They know it’s technically wrong, but it makes for sensational headlines so they can’t stop themselves. The movie is about two Democratic nominees running for the

presidential nomination, so you can assume that when the campaign supervisors talk about the Republican nominees, they don’t have many – if any – kind words. This is sure to ruffle a few conservative talk show feathers, who will come out after the movie is released decrying how the liberal media hates conservatives. However, it’s just a movie, and frankly, would you expect the rhetoric to be any different if the tables were turned and the movie was about a Republican nominee? No. The point is that all these guys have is rhetoric, no matter what side of the isle they sit on. They live and feed off sensational statements. Their answers to pointed questions are almost always too broad and too idealistic. This is the political landscape we live in and “The Ides of March” is just bringing it to our attention.

Politics are a dirty business. Everyone knows that. Even when movies try and portray a candidate who fancies themselves above all that mud throwing, they usually have to end up rolling around in the muck just to get through the campaign. Sadly, that’s how it always turns out. Candidates and the people who work for them come into the race with bright eyes, staunch morals, and then by the end they’re compromising everything just for a few more percentage points in the polls. Like I said, it’s a nasty business. “Beware the Ides of March,” pronounces the soothsayer in Shakespeare’s famous play, Julius Caesar. Caesar was too proud to listen, and now the Ides of March have become synonymous with the death of a famous politician. Caesar was famously stabbed to death on that fateful day in March. What parallels can we draw from Caesar’s ultimate demise and the new movie “The Ides of March,” which is directed by George Clooney? Well, there’s always someone lying in wait in the political game. Someone ready to send their closest friend to the slaughter if it means getting a leg up on the competition. There’s always someone waiting to figuratively stab you in the back if you’re not careful. Even the tiniest mistakes can come back and haunt you in big ways. Governor Mike Mor-

photos to fabric Lucy Peterson Watkins designs, sews and photoshops her images into intricate art

ucy Peterson Watkins didn’t have the art itch growing up, though she had plenty of exposure to it. Her dad, Dean F. Peterson, was skilled a engineer, her mom was a French teacher with artistic inclinations, her brother a talented woodworker and her two sisters became artists in their own right — working with oils and watercolors. Meanwhile, she graduated from Logan High School and went to USU to study political science and journalism. Life took a different turn though when she married an Air Force pilot and moved before she could finish any degree, instead settling into the real estate business. Her first inspiration pushing her into art was in Washington, D.C., where she would often go and see art galleries. “It made me realize that what I saw, especially in fiber, I could do that, too,” Watkins recalls. “It got me seeing a lot of different things from Oriental paintings to just a myriad of art.” Another push towards artistry came with retirement. “I was a little bored so I went ahead and bought Photoshop in 1992 or whenever it came out and I started to do webpage design and do all those pretty things you would see on the webpages,” Watkins says. “I honed my skills with graphic art at that time. I also started to quilt because I wanted to make all my kids a quilt. But I got a little bored with that, so it morphed into just using fiber.” The skills learned from the two activities have come in handy. Watkins still uses Photoshop in the beginning stages of her work and knowing how to quilt and use a sewing machine is very useful when you’re putting hundreds of pieces of fabric together and doing free-motion embroidery — a technique that involves moving the fabric around the sewing needle as it bobs up and down. The free time that came with retirement also came in handy. “One of my first pieces [I did] was after I retired from real estate. I didn't have to put up signs in the ground on Sunday afternoon and meet people and all that kind of stuff,” Watkins explains, going on to describe cutting up her silk dresses to use as pieces she sewed into a picture featuring a bird flying over a field. “Every day there’s a new learning curve. You never stop learning. It’s not like learning a language. Every day you’re learning or doing something different. It’s just like life, you just keep on learning,” Watkins says of making art pieces. Still, there is a basic process she goes through to put a piece together.

Eli Lucero/Herald Journal

Lucy Peterson Watkins paints a picture at her home in North Logan on Tuesday.

In the case of her photos-on-fabric pieces, which are some of her best selling items, the first thing Watkins does is to choose photos. With one exception, she has always used her own photos in the art pieces she has done. The next step involves working on the picture in Photoshop, tweaking the colors, bringing parts of different photographs together and the like. “Designing is part of the fun, and when it comes out OK that’s great,” Watkins says. Next the design is printed out and meticulously transferred to fabric with anything from oil pastels to colored pencils, depending on the look she wants to achieve. “I like to dye my own fabric, I did a great one with tequila,” Watkins says.

She then dries the piece and treats it with a print-guard product before going to work on it with a needle, using free-motion embroidery and other techniques to give it some final touches. After that it’s a simple matter of stretching the piece over a frame with dyed fabric sewn on it. The process can take around 60 to 70 hours at least, but the work is it’s own reward, “For the sale price of my pieces I'm probably working for 5 or 6 cents an hour, but I love what I'm doing so that gives me a lot of joy. ... I want people to have my pieces if they like them.” A lot of people seem to. She’s sold about 20 pieces of art in the last month and will have her artwork featured at Gia’s for CVCA's winter Gallery Walk. On top of that she has also been tapped to be the featured artist for Summerfest next year. “This will be the fourth time I’ve been featured at Gia’s. The good thing about Gia’s is that an artist can show over the weekend there, so that’s great for me,” Watkins says, explaining that she’s only been involved with the Gallery Walk for the last three years. “It took me a long time to get any credibility for my art.” So what about her Summerfest gig? “It is a big deal for me. I'll have to make a lot of things. I've never been in that booth situation. I'll be spending the winter doing that. They always do a poster with the artist piece on it, so I'll have to come up with something for that. I'm flattered and I'm happy and nervous and humbled all at the same time.” When Watkins isn’t busy making art, she keeps busy donating and supporting it. Recently she donated a number of dog and cat pieces to the Moondog Ball silent auction, a fundraiser for Four Paws Rescue coming up Oct. 15. She also hosts Art on the Lawn each year with her second husband, former North Logan Mayor Cary Watkins. Money raised from the annual one-day event goes towards high school art departments, an art scholarship with the Cache Education Foundation and Friends of the North Logan Library. So far it has raised about $57,000. It even has its own YouTube channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/artonthelawn) which features Watkins artwork, videos and more. Still, for all the success Watkins has had, even she makes mistakes. Although from time to time she has to toss a piece, she likes to look on the bright side, “If it’s a mistake, perhaps it will lead to a better piece.”

If you are going to read one book to change your diet and your life, “The Kitchen Counter Cooking School” is it. The second book by Le Cordon Bleu graduate Kathleen Flinn starts with her stalking a woman in the grocery store, but it ends better than you’d expect. Flinn is struck by the number of boxes and cans the woman is buying — and the grocery bill she’s racking up — and spends the afternoon leading her through the store, explaining how she can save cash by buying a whole chicken, a pot roast and vegetables instead of readyto-eat items. The chance encounter leads to Flinn’s offer on a local radio show to teach cooking to nine

volunteers who are willing to open their kitchens and psyches to her inspection. The women range in age from their 20s to early 60s. Some are well-off financially, others are not. One woman who had a good job lost it to the recession and is on food stamps. One needs to watch her sodium. Others are watching their weight. None of them can cook a lick. Flinn starts with basic knife skills and soon the women are chopping up vegetables like line cooks. They eventually learn to break down chickens, bake bread and butcher meat. Flinn teaches them how to liven up vegetables, make quick homemade pasta sauces and “salt to taste” — always a tricky order in a recipe. They also learn how to make use of leftovers to reduce food

allow someone to saute, braise and grill along with the class. Each chapter ends with a short summary, quick tips and at least one recipe. After the classes end, Flinn revisits her volunteers’ homes to see how their kitchens and eating habits have changed. Some have made drastic changes. For others, it’s smaller — substituting sandwiches for fast food, for example. Most roast chicken and make soup regularly. One eventually goes on to become a master canner and teaches others how to preserve food. All say they are more conwaste and cut their grocery bills. The nice thing about Flinn’s book is that the reader can follow along. Her descriptions of technique are detailed enough to

WWII mystery proves deadly By Mary Foster The Associated Press

In the waning hours of World War II, a covert German bomber carrying both German and American officers crashes in the snow in Iceland. Little is known about the plane, or why enemy officers would be on the flight. As the passengers slowly die, the plane disappears into a glacier, leaving its exact location a mystery. Decades later, the plane is discovered, and an effort by the U.S. to remove it secretly begins. That’s the premise of Arnaldur Indridason’s new novel, “Operation Napoleon,” a thriller that plunges the reader into the fast-paced plot set in an exotic landscape of long dark nights and deadly weather.

In a land where the frigid winter climate is frequently a danger to residents, some young rescue volunteers on a training mission disappear after they break off from their group for a bit of joyriding on their new snowmobiles.

One of them calls his sister on the way to the glacier where the training exercise will be held. He’s checking out his new phone and promises to call the next day. His sister, Kristin, hears from him again, but the call is garbled and she can just make out his panic-stricken words about armed soldiers and a plane. Her brother and his friend unknowingly drove their snowmobiles close to the mission to salvage the plane and got too close to a killer determined to protect its secrecy at all costs. Kristin is determined to find out what happened to her brother. But she suddenly finds herself on the run, and saving him has become secondary to trying to find out what’s going on and dodging a pair of killers who are after her.

fident, have cut waste, saved money and feel like they are eating higher quality food. “The Kitchen Counter Cooking School” is a great book for people who want to learn to cook or break out of their box, close their cookbooks and make dinner without a recipe. It cannot replace a Cordon Bleu education, but for someone who wants to be a good home cook, not a chef, it’s affordable and fun — and as Flinn notes repeatedly, there’s nothing wrong with simply wanting to make a healthy dinner for yourself and your family.
