I am so excited my Ashford Traditional wheel will be here sometime next week coming all the way from WY.My dh got it for me for Christmas. I had one "non" negotional term and that was it had to be used. Once I get the hang of spinning then maybe for my birthday we can look into getting a new one. He won it on eBay!! I am truly blessed because of all the "extra" things that are coming with it. I'll have "2" lazy kate's and "6" yes "6" bobbins, plus a poop load of fiber as well. Plus last week were at the KCM store and we found this vintage sewing chair. I purchased remnant fabric and will reupholster it. Then I can store my spindles and other small things inside of it. I am just having a ball. I am still working on the shawl for my grandmother and hope to have it finished by the first of the year or sooner. I finally nished the bag for the bag swap I joined now I am just pulling together my Christmas swap and then my next one is due I believe in January it is a coffee swap. Well it is late and need to get some rest. Tmorrow I will post pictures of my daughter and granddaughters. I miss them and my parent very much as do all my family memebers that live in other states, especially my best buddy Deb who I call sista. Hope to visit her sometime next year.
Hi! I'm Cheryl a 100% DAV Marine who is retired. We presently live in TX with our various pets. But soon we hope to be in our first "HOME" in FL soon. I picked knitting back up after a 20+ year hiatus, I also spin my own fiber and weave as well.

Congratulations!!! I just got mine too, I bartered part of the price for a Kromski Sonata and I LOVE it! I also LOVE your char - where did you get it?
Hi Claudia,
I found the chair at Katy Christian Ministries resale shop. My hubby got it as a Christmas gift for me and I will be reupholstering it this weekend. Check your local thrift shops and antique shops and resale shops you might find one like we did.
