Our Story/My Story
There was a time in my life (and it's still happening) when I kept making friends with talented ladies. Each one creative in their own way. In my 40's I guess I was thinking about "retirement" years and how I would like to spend them. Well, wouldn't it be nice to have a place to live, a lodge perhaps, where your friends could join you, all bringing a little something different to the table, be it gardening, pottery, cooking, sewing... We could host retreats and be self-supporting, not a hippie commune, just good friends living a good life. Well, fast forward a few years and here I am at Three Sheep, gallery & workshop. My friends don't live with me, but we are all creative, and love sharing our talents with others. We strive to work well together, create well made items and want to share this experience with you.
Fast forward a few years… Three Sheep has become the community that I envisioned it would be, thanks to it’s wonderful patrons, aka my new friends. When we opened, I was told the shop would evolve and change over time. I agreed it would evolve and grow, but little did I know that weaving would take center stage. What joy weaving has brought to so many since it’s arrival at Three Sheep. I’ve taken training in SAORI weaving, which is a style and philosophy of weaving that just feels right with me. Unlike traditional weaving, we weave without patterns, rules, constraints… and never make mistakes. We create cloth to use in our home, to wear, and just for fun. I’m looking forward to introducing you to weaving, and excited to see what lies ahead.

We’re open each Wednesday & Thursday from 11 to 5, but we’re happy to see you other days too. Just give us a call or drop us a line to schedule time to weave, take a class, or enjoy some private shopping.
