Carole Valentine - Makes a Center Fold!!

[Bill Stevener]

Hi Carole,
Just saw your donation for a great cause and thought it should be noted.

Carole donated a fine turning for the Katrina auction, that was held via. another channel, and a photo of it is shown in the current issue of "Woodturning Design". Hope everyone has a chance to see it.

Just a very thoughtful thing to do, and a very nice turning as well.

AS YOU SAY --- LOL,
Bill.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>:)

Congrats Carole!

Very nice Carole !

[Carole Valentine]

I have not received my issue yet, but have seen the article. It sure seemed to me that one of the spectacular pieces like J. Paul Fennell's, Molly Winton or any of the other seasoned turners' work should have taken the spot on that page. I am a little embarrassed.:o

[Andy Hoyt]

I haven't seen it yet either. But know this - It's neither the quality of the gift/donation, nor the skill of the giver/donor that matters. That it happened does. My hope is that this spirit is what the magazine found exemplified by your piece.

And, Carole; don't be embarassed by recognition - be challenged.

Yes...here I am lurking on the round side....as predicted. Congrats Carole, proud to know ya.

[Robert Watsek]

Congratulations Carole!!! ......the accolade is well deserved.

Andy says it well ........don't be embarassed by recognition - be challenged.

Hey, Carole, guess you can't call yourself a total amatuer anymore. Your'e now in the big league. Hope you'll still talk to the rest of us. :-)

I haven't seen the pic yet, though. I don't subscribe so have to wait for it to show up at Fred Meyer--one of our local shop for everything stores. Guess I better subscribe!

Rich, thanks but it was no big deal. I can't even locate the photo now. It was just a plain little round semi-enclosed maple form with a figure that was reminiscent..remeniscent...shoot, I can't spell..."looked like" muddy floodwaters! :D
