New addition to the family

Here is the newest addition to join my wheel family of one.

It’s a limited edition Schacht Cherry Matchless to celebrate Schacht’s 40th anniversary. Swoon.

Way back in March or April Marcia started talking about this wheel, which in turn got me thinking about it and before you know it, I had one on order too. I bought mine from Lois at Bountiful and her service was just wonderful!

I now understand why everyone always raves about the Matchless. I am still getting to know this wheel but I loved it on the first day.

I always knew that someday I would have a second wheel, I just didn’t know which one it would be. Boy am I glad I waited for this one!

    How pretty! But…um… don’t tell Marcia (aka, the enabler), since she hasn’t gotten her yet! She’ll be super jealous. :(

  2. Sarah says:

    Congratulations!
    I hope you will LOVE your matchless as much as I love mine!

    You’re one lucky spinner! I’ve been coveting these since they sold out. (I didn’t hear about them in time.) I LOVE my Matchless, even though it’s not in cherry.
    Hey, if you ever want to sell, let me know. :) I mean, a guy can only hope…

  4. Julie says:

    It sure is a beauty! I have a soft spot for cherry but definitely no room in the budget for a wheel atm. Maybe someday :)

  5. Marcia says:

    What Anne said. Of course, I knew, but still……maybe next week.

    And Dave, if I don’t love it, you may be on!

  6. Marcia says:

    BTW, Karen….you should get Maggie Casey’s video. The whole first disc is shot using a Schacht Matchless. Lots of little tricks, including when and where to oil!

  7. Kris says:

    Its beautiful. So, so beautiful! I hope you love it.

    PS - hoping to buy one (not cherry) when the big D is finally done - figure I’ll sell my engagement ring and treat myself :)

  8. Shannon says:

    What a beautiful new addition! I’ve never spun on a Schatt but I’ve heard lots of good things and it is a beautiful wheel to look at; I know you will enjoy it!

  9. Karen says:

    She’s a beauty. I wish you many happy years spinning together.

  10. Leann says:

    oooh, pretty! Can’t wait to see what you spin up on it!

  11. Uli says:

    wow……… if I was in the market (and could afford) a 2nd wheel, this one would have been it!!!! I wish you many years of happiness together. (and I’m only just a little bit jealous)

  12. Jenny says:

    Oooh, pretty!

  13. Benita says:

    So, will Big Sister get jealous of all the time you are spending with the new arrival? Will we see evidence of sibling rivalry?

    Serious, that is a lovely wheel. Cherry. Yum!

  14. Chris says:

    Oooo, very pretty! May you two enjoy a long and happy partnership!

  15. Lorette says:

    You’ll love your Matchless! I adore mine, even though it’s not cherry. He still just spins like a dream. Have you named him/her yet?

  16. Teyani says:

    Welcome to the Matchless club!! I love mine (even tho she’s not made of cherry) It’s my “go to” wheel…
    It just gets better and better all the time.

  17. Elysbeth says:

    Very nice, a good tool is a dream.

  18. Li_B says:

    Whoo-hoo, fun times ahead. I LOVE a good new toy.
