Which is the real maiden and which is the repro? Fred was asked to recreate the missing maiden. It took a couple of tries, but the results were worth it.
The maidens are from a lovely Scandinavian wheel owned by a Ravelry member of the antique spinning wheels group.

He does beautiful work! But you knew that!!!
ReplyDeleteWow. I thought, the left one. Then I thought, no, the right one.
ReplyDeleteThen I thought, it doesn't matter, they're both awesome.
Well done!
He did a GREAT job!! I can't wait to see it in person! I hear she got it spinning today and it's pretty awesome! I can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteAmazing work! I cannot tell which one is which--they both shine ;-)
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely wheel, so good that it will be up and working again!
The maiden Fred made is on the right. Thanks to all for your kind words.

ReplyDeleteI just bought an antique wheel, in honor of my grandmother, and hope to get it working.
