For all of you who joined in for this week’s book give-away of the Beginner’s Guide to Goldwork by Ruth Chamberline, we have a winner!

Beginner's Guide to Goldwork

I’ll just cut to the quick. I could go on and on about the book again, but you already know I like it, or I wouldn’t be giving it away!

The winner of the book is Kathy in McKinney, Texas. This is her comment:

I would love to win the gold work book giveaway! I am a beginner in gold work. I took one class at a national seminar, but got stuck, and have been unable to complete my piece! So hopefully the book would help!

  1. Hi Mary – Thanks for letting me know that it’s available at Book Depository. Goldwork embroidery has long been something I’ve been interested in (it’s so beautiful just to look at, so I can only imagine how wonderful it must feel to create beautiful pieces with it) and am keen to try, and this book, being for beginners mainly, is something I will be buying very shortly (unless my own library has it or can order it for me, which I kinda doubt, but worth a try).

    Thanks for sharing this, and for reminding me once again how I’ve got to get a copy of it sooner rather than later.

    i was fortunate enough to find this book in my local library and can’t wait to get my hands on it. i’ve plans to make a wedding album cover and would love to incorporate some goldwork in the design. hopefully there will be something in this book to inspire a design.

  4. Well, it sounds like the right person won. Congratulations Kathy. It would be terrible to start a peice of goldwork and be unable to finish it. Just the cost alone. I am so glad you won.
