in the wool room.......

i love textiles......................always has been one of my favorites.....................started collecting antique clothing probably over 30 yrs. ago................couldn't afford a blue calico dress...then...or now!................... i also love anything to do with spinning (although i do not know how, but would love to learn).........the spinning wheel collection is constantly growing............and i have decided to stock up with parts, and assemble "make-do" spinning wheels for the shop.......what fun that will be...just to see what can happen with pieces here and there...but for now......here is just a tiny little place in the wool room.......
............................................... i am blessed !

I think that would be a wonderful idea. I have two spinning wheels and do know how to spin but just don't have the time right now.
I really love the two miniature wheels you have!

Ohhhh! That blue calico is wonderful and has always been a favorite of mine! Your home would be so fun to come and snoop around!!! I see a peak of a little hooked mat with a star... so cozy!!
Hugs!!

Simply lovely, calico's are so calming. I agree with Cathy, visiting your sweet Prairie Place on your blog is so much fun. I have a loom I would like to learn how to use, maybe someday.
