This floor is set up mostly to represent what a mid-19th century American midwest home would look like. This section has a lot of different tools to make fabrics like spinning wheels, etc. We were given a demonstration of how the spinning wheels work & what the end results of the spinning would be.
"My spinning-wheel-in-waiting"
My uncle built this wheel while working at Wee Peggy in New Zealand in the late '70s (?). It hasn't been used much since the '80s,exccept for a brief stint when it was loaned to a friend a couple of years ago. It needs a little TLC, but I do think I see a new fibrecraft hobby in my future.
