Stumped on a project, application or product? Send me a note with your crafty crisis. I'll do my best to come to the rescue! AND - if you are a clever crafter and can offer a suggestion, please post a comment :-) Sunday, October 24, 2004Tote from a towel? Why not?
Hi! First of all I have to say I love your site! But I was wondering if there are any tutorial for a messenger bag on you site? Oh and do you know of a good place to find oil based paint? Like Hobby Lobby or Jo Anns? Hmmm...Oh and could you make a messenger bag out of a towel? If not, where is the best place to find a neon pink fabric? I would prefer a store, not the net, but they are both fine! Thanks!!! Oh, and sorry for so many qusetions!
Victoria Howdy Victoria! You think like a crafty chica alright - a zillion ideas all within a few seconds. I do have instructions for several bags on my site, most recently the Shower Curtain Tote. You can also check out Craftster.org for oodles of instructions. Oil based paint you can find at a Michaels or an art supply store. Probably JoAnn's and Hobby Lobby too. There are different kinds, so grab a clerk and explain what you will be using it for so he/she can point you in the right direction. And I've seen Martha Stewart make a tote from a thick, lush, yummy towel before. It's totally do-able. If it wasn't so late at night I would hunt down the link for you. Neon pink fabric? I've seen it at JoAnn's. I'd love to see what you do with all this stuff! Thanks for writing! Kathy :-) ********** http://www.CraftyChica.com

In a (hefty) nutshell: I'm a mom, wife, artist, author & left-handed middle-child binge crafter Sagittarian. We have 4 Chihuahuas. I designed a product line with Duncan Enterprises - it launches this summer nationwide! I write a weekly nationally syndicated craft column for The Arizona Republic. I've authored six books. My 7th is a sewing book for Potter Craft and it comes out Feb. 17, 2009. I wrote and sold my first novel, "Love Shine". It comes out in summer 2009 (Grand Central Publishing). I make and sell a line of "Chicano Pop Art" with my husband, Patrick Murillo. He does all my illos! We are currently prepping for a six-month art installation for the Heard Museum. It opens October 2008. I have a web series with LifetimeTV.com called "Crafting With the Chica". I love to read. I watch too much TV!   Note to visitors: Hola! This site is the archive of all my past projects for Gannett News Service and The Arizona Republic. These ideas are for personal use only. I make a living as a craft designer, so I will be using these ideas in my published works. If you are thinking of selling or using these ideas for profit, please give respect and "twist" them to make them your own - put your own stamp on them to make them different. It will work out for the best for both of us! Thank you and much respect from one creative person to another! — Kathy Have a burning crafty question? Visit my Ask Crafty Chica blog or drop me a line!
