It’s an honour when your woodturned vessel gets selected for two awards by some of the finest woodturners in the Ottawa and Eastern Ontario regions. I’m a member of Ottawa Valley Woodturners club, . Every year the club asks members to submit entries for two awards: “Turning of the Year” award and “Marion McGee” award. This year, this piece was selected for both of those awards.
What an honour! I’m still floating on air.
