I'm giving away one DVD which will be randomly selected from comments to this blog post from now through Friday midnight.
Even if you're friends with right angle weave and cubic right angle weave this video may have some tips for you. If either is a stitch you've been wanting to master I think you'll find this a pretty comprehensive guide with up close and personal demonstrations of many techniques.
I'm proud of the job that Interweave did in filming and editing this 90 minute video and I'd like to share it with you so if you'd like the opportunity to win this dvd please leave me a comment on your RAW CRAW desires!
While the focus is on RAW with all it's variations, flat, tubular, increases, decreases, embellished, armatures and layers, I did manage to work in 30 minutes of some CRAW fundamentals, including starting, turning corners, joining and doing multiple rows.
Should you not be the lucky winner, it appears that it is currently on sale in the Interweave store. I'm never sure when it will be on sale or for how much, but I just noticed that at the moment it is a particularly good price!
Next year I will be filming the sequel, Cubic Right Angle Weave and Prismatic Weave (which shares a thread path with cubic right angle weave but has more or less sides than a cube.)

Thanks for the chance to win. Love RAW but have not tried the other yet. Have been looking at the video at Joanns.....
Love your books, your work and your stories about your travels. A DVD would be amazing to expand my technique. Of course free is also great. Nice offer Marcia!! Thanks.
I'd love to win this...I love CRAW but for some reason haven't mastered RAW yet! Thank you for the opportunity!
I would love to have this. Please enter me to be the lucky winner.
I would love to win this! It would be an awesome holiday gift to me! I'm still a beginner and I consume the work I see on these Facebook pages like a mad woman. I am always looking to learn new stitches and techniques and adding CRAW would be a bonus! Presents for the holidays! I love telling people I make my own jewelry when they ask where I get my pieces. So...winning this would simply be one of the best presents for the holidays. Thank you!
Me gustaría muchísimo poder aprender tus técnicas! Eres la reina del Craw
Would love a video - I have been away from beading for awhile now and need to get motivated. Thanks!!!!!!
Wow! What an opportunity. Anyone who wins this will be very happy - hope it's me! :) Sharing on fb.
Thanks for doing this, Marcia. Would �� to win. I like RAW...have done some CRAW, but would like to learn more....
I was told once by a teacher that I didn't do RAW correctly, because I am left-handed. I took that to mean I really do "left angle weave" and I don't do it unless I absolutely have to, so I would love something that shows me the proper way to do the stitches!
I would love to have a personal RAW lesson from you Marcia. A DVD would make that possible for me!
I always like to learn new stitches and techniques.
I still have not been able to master CRAW, what is the matter with me? I have made several of your desins but CRAW just blows me away.
I would love to win this gracious gift.
To think that RAW used to be my nemesis stitch and now I'm making a CRAW bracelet!
I want to really win this one for another personal moment with Marcia learning RAW
Count me in! I love your beadwork and would love to take a class from you. This DVD may be the closest thing I get.
I struggle with craw. Would love to win this book to learn from the master of craw
Love Raw, would love to master the craw technique. Thank you for the opportunity to try and win a copy. Fingers are crossed!
Love your work and would be happy to win a copy! :)
I'm decent at RAW, but terrible at CRAW, so I could definitely use this!!!
I too love your work, and I know that I have so much to learn. I feel sure hour the one to help me. So I feel sure that the DVD would be happy to swim over the pond yo England, just to help me out!
Thanks for sharing, Marcia! I've dabbled in RAW, but would love to expand my beading horizons.

I RAW but would LOVE to learn to CRAW!!!!!!!!!
Would love to improve my skills with your DVD
I would love to receive a copy of your video and learn tips from you.
I would love the chance to win this book
This awesome DVD would go straight to our San Antonio Bead Society's library if I won. I find it easier to teach CRAW than RAW so maybe this DVD would improve my teaching skills.
I love your videos!
Thanks for the chance to win your DVD! I have done RAW but not CRAW and would love to learn this technique.
It would be a great add to my jewelry library.
Thanks Marcia, what a wonderful gift to oneself, especially during this holiday season. I love RAW and look forward to your sequel next year.
Happy Holidays to you!
Many thanks!
OMG! i would love a copy of your video to go along with your books! the books are incredible sooo, the video must be outstanding!!! thank you !!!
Love learning something new all the time. RAW is fun and trying at times, depends on the project.
Would love this video! I know the basics, but it would be great to be tutored by the master! Thanks . . .
I try to Craw, but I think I am just Raw at the moment.

I love RAW & CRAW & would love to take it to another level! Great giveaway! Thanks!
Looks amazing Marcia! Bravo!
I have a hard time watching videos, Marcia, but would love to try it with your RAW and CRAW video. I love both and think I'm pretty good with these stitches, but you can always learn something! And you're a great teacher!
Would love to win this ... sometimes RAW and I do not get along. Could use an expert's advise!
What a nice thing to do, thank you! I very comfortable with raw, but have not played with craw yet.... Would love to win...
Oh I'd love this SO MUCH.
Thanks for offering a giveaway. You're work is beautiful.
Thanks for the give away Marcia. I would love to win as raw is my favorite stitch. Also I would love to expand my knowledge.
I love RAW so I think I would love CRAW. I love your patterns and would love to learn something new. Thank you for offering this.
I love RAW but haven't tried CRAW. It is on my list of things to learn. Thank you for offering this to one of us lucky ones.
I do RAW - like it more and more every time I make another piece. have not done CRAW yet but it's on my list! Thanks for the chance to win!
OMG! I LOVE Marcia's patterns! I have your beaded opulence, but don't think I'm good enough to try these yet.
This has been on my wish list for awhile. I love Marcia's artistic style and would love to be better at CRAW. Thanks for offering this opportunity!
I'm not a fan of RAW, but love the look. Hopefully your book can convert me!
Marsha, I would love to learn from you.
What a nice offer. I love doing RAW but I must admit that I have not done much CRAW. would love that chance to learn more from a master beader.
I love doing CRAW but am relatively new at it. I would love to have a copy of your DVD.
I do both RAW and CRAW, but I know there are many more things I could learn.
I'm getting in the running for the DVDs. I know the thread path but would love to see a pro do it and learn! Thanks, Marcia, for hosting the giveaway! Jeanne Evans
I would love to be entered in the draw Marcia. I am working on Rings of Saturn but really need to get to grips with RAW.

I have been dying to take a class with you, what a great way to do that with this video until I am able to catch up with you in person!
I can't believe that you are retiring and I was going to take the next class offered in Florida......wherever it was being held!!! Would love the video and learning the correct way to do RAW!!
I've only done RAW once, you're video sounds like a great way to master it.
