where

We love being in Antique Alley.  Come see us!  The address is officially 92 W Franklin, but know that several shops have the same address!  The easiest way to find us it to turn west onto Franklin Street from Van Buren (the corner where the Bartley house is), and when you reach Honeysuckle Lane, cross it you will see a post pointing you to the shops, we are in the opposite corner of that courtyard, tucked behind the Ferguson House next to Brown County Pottery!

Regular hours:

Monday – Saturday               11-5 (also open Tuesday 6:30-8:00)

brown county fiber arts school

We began our Brown County Fiber Arts School in August 2021, with a great weekend event!  We have 2 classes scheduled for September:  Preparing a Fleece on September 9 at 9:00 am, and Foraging for Color on September 23 at 9:00 am.  More to come! Watch this space!

we stand with Ukraine

As many of you know we lived in Ukraine for a few years.  We have many ties and friends there, and we are devastated by what is happening.  We are collecting donations at the shop and have already donated over $2000 (As of April 23) to Nazarene Compassionate Ministries and Global Care Force. We know these companies, and trust that 100% of the monies will go to assist the people of Ukraine.  We also know those on the ground serving.  We are offering a blue and yellow bracelet for a $10.00 donation, a limited edition print, “Moon Over Mariupol” by Jeff Hagan for a $50.00 donation.  These items are available in our online store as well–100% of purchase price is donated to NCM. If you are looking for a place to donate, I encourage you to donate through  one of these organizations!
