Symposium report

Thanks for the links, Ed. Wishing I could be there, I'll have to live vicariously through the rest of you.
As an aside, I met the man who made this piece:

Hillard was a friend of my parents, and quite a character. I suspect he would loved to have been at the Symposium, being so close to home.

Thanks for the posting, but SWMBO has a question.
The photo of the lady with the lace bobbins and pillow (#11)
Was it a display of her bobbins, or was she doing lace?
I got into wood-turning, simply to make bobbins for SWMBO, haven't made many, but I have done a lot of other turning

Thanks Ed. I'm so jealous. I wanted to go but it just didn't work out.
thanks Ed, looking forward to next update, enjoy 
The lady with the lace bobbins was the maker of those turnings, and was in the process of filling out paperwork to display them in the instant gallery.
Ed, I too want to thank you for doing this. I know it takes time to take the photos and then get them posted. Great job !!!!!!!
