My new craft column in the Chicago Tribune!

May 9, 2012 by Amanda Formaro

My new craft column in the Chicago Tribune!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.
