"Kathy Cano Murillo strikes us as one of those people who, stranded on a desert island with nothing but a volleyball, a deck of playing cards and some coconuts, would not only craft a rescue vehicle and distress signal but whip up a spiffy castaway-themed wardrobe to wear as she did so. And she would be having a great time. And so would you. Visit the Arizona Republic contributor's site to get the craft fever yourself."

Crafty Lit: How to Make an American Quilt-inspired hanging


Originally published for MyLifetime.com.

"How to Make an American Quilt" by Whitney Otto is a must-read for crafty book lovers. It is filled with gushy romance, old-fashioned betrayal, sibling rivalry and lots of needle-on-fabric action. A sewing circle dives into a marathon session to finish a "crazy quilt" for a young woman who's about to wed (yet is tempted to sleep with another man). You don't have to make a full-on California king covering, but a Mini Collage Quilt will do just fine. Round up all your scraps and use them to make a small wall hanging to proudly display in your home.
