For now, our friend Cami of the blog, Art, Like Bread, shares a great story of attending the CHA in Chicago. She had an opportunity to meet the Crafty Chica in person AND is giving away a copy of her book:
Waking Up in the Land of Glitter, by the Crafty Chica, Kathy Cano-Murillo
Here is a description from Amazon.... while this is a crafty book, it is a novel! How cool is that!!? Good luck!! Just head on over to Cami's blog to enter. (Thanks Cami!)
Product Description
With glue guns, glitter, twigs, or yarn, the ordinary can become extraordinary . . . especially at La Pachanga. Owned by Estrella "Star" Esteban's family, the restaurant has a rep for two things: good food and great art.
La Pachanga brings people together-even when it looks like they couldn't be further apart.One ill-fated evening, Star jeopardizes her family's business, her relationship with her boyfriend, and her future career. To redeem herself, she agrees to participate in a national craft competition, teaming up with her best friend, Ofelia-a secretly troubled mother whose love for crafting borders on obsession-and local celebrity Chloe Chavez-a determined television personality with more than one skeleton in her professional closet. If these unlikely allies can set aside their differences, they'll find strength they never knew they had, and learn that friendship, like crafting, is truly an art form.
