Parts of a Whole

 The kitties get as excited as I do when there is a new package!
 Can you guess what this is?
 This will give you some help!
 I set up the waxing and polishing station in my sewing room this morning and got to work (pleasure).
 Then this afternoon we had a wonderful visit , my brother, sis-in-law and nephew took a ride to see us!  So nice to have them share some of their vacation time with us!
 When they left, I finished the last of the spinning wheel assembly!  Isn't it a beauty?!
I sat right down and began to spin with some left over Peruvian wool roving for the test drive.  
Ahhhhhh, the wheel and I are friends right from the start!  I love the ascetics of this wheel but have longed to have the height of the orifice higher than it is with the Joy wheel.  Yes, this wheel just fits just right.
