The Crafty Chica DIY Project Library: a collection of fabulous handmade ideas by Kathy Cano-Murillo, the Crafty Chica! Monday, May 07, 2007Postcard Pillows Remember last year when I got hooked on making No-Sew Napkin Pillows? Well, I'm still diggin' on it. Except now I'm adding pictures. I whipped up this fetching set over the weekend for Patrick's Auntie Angie. It was her birthday and she loves Cine Mexicano. So I took the postcards, printed them on InkJet fabric sheets and sewed them onto a bigger piece of background fabric and then stitched the whole dang thing to a napkin, did it again, stuffed the pillow and glued the seams shut. If you aren't into sewing, pick up a bottle of Aleene's Fabric Fusion and just brush it on the back of your fabric and press it into place. There you go! Dos fabuloso cushinas! Eee, that reminds me - I have to go practice for my Spanish class tomorrow! *** STORE * BOOK * T-SHIRTS * MY SPACE * FLICKR * All content/photos copyright, Kathy Cano Murillo, 2006.

I'm a mommy, wifey, artist, author & left-handed middle-child binge crafter Sagittarian. I love chocolate, coffee, and I collect Chihuahua stuff (we have 4 live ones). I have a new product line! I write a syndicated craft column for The Arizona Republic. My 7th craft book comes out next year, as well as my first novel. I make a line of Chicano Pop Art with my hubby and we have sold it all over the country since 1990. Doing my best to live in the moment and savor it all!  
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!
