I know that I’m usually tooting other peoples’ horns on this blog, but today I’m tootin’ my own! I have a new monthly craft column with The Chicago Tribune and my first project debuted on their site today. It will also be in this Sunday’s paper. Yay! This month is a bendable flower made with pretty fabric scraps and pipe cleaners. Next month will be strawberry themed… See the instructions for the bendable fabric flower on the Chicago Tribune website here — Fabric flower to craft for Mothers Day and spring – chicagotribune.com.
