DAY THREE GIVEAWAY...

Are you having fun yet? I sure am! We've made it halfway through my Five Days of Giveaways to celebrate my sixteenth year of blogging. YIPPEE!!

I've chosen something a bit more special to me for today's giveaway. I hope you like it! When I owned my needlework shop, I decided to teach needlework classes. I had this idea in my head to create a primer for my students to take away with them from my class. 

I also wanted them to have a project to work on, so my very first design "Examplar One" was born. It led me to a decade of designing and creating samplers for my customers, and also for other shops around the world. I remember driving to needlework markets on the east coast, as well as teaching classes in surrounding states in America's Heartland. My sampler charts shipped to shop owners in the UK, Australia and across the United States. I'm very grateful for the enthusiasm shown me during those years, and have planned something special to reintroduce the designs very soon. My first pieces will be included in this giveaway gift.

I'm so pleased to offer this gift to one lucky winner. This is one of three remaining copies of my "Primer and Class Companion" for my "Examplar One" counted thread sampler. 

The verse for Examplar One is:

"I learned my stitches one by one, and some I did repeat. I wrought each one with special care, til my sampler was complete."

The Primer is thirty pages of tips and tricks I learned over many years of experience, and classes from other talented needleworkers and designers. There are diagrams, additional charts, and other images, too. I've also included blank pages for notes. Previously, you had to take one of my classes to get one of these primers, but one lucky winner will have a copy for herself. I am planning to reprint this primer in the near future, but it won't be in this format.

This gift would be incomplete without the accompanying chart photographed on the front page of the Primer. I've also added DMC size 26 tapestry needles. Not shown are the twelve cotton floss colors called for in the chart, along with a wooden needlecase to hold the needles. Rest assured they will be included. I may even add a few other surprises!

As I mentioned before, I'm sharing the rules each day of the drawing to avoid any confusion.  Also, remember you can click on any of my blog images to enlarge them.
