I used to frequent Buddie's Woven Rug and Fleamarket Store in Kentucky, and that was where I found a small weaving with this little sheep scene.  At the time I was doing a lot of tablet weaving, so I bought the little piece intending to figure out how to weave it with tablets.  Since then I have done not only the tablet-woven version, but warp-face, rag rug, and now this tiny little piece.  I wove it on my trusty Structo, which I love to have warped because I can set it beside me anywhere and get bits of weaving done while visiting or whatever.

Hi Bonnie, 

This weaving is beautiful.  I'm very inspired now to find a cute pattern like this and make a wall hanging.  Your weaving and color choices are really nice.  Thanks for sharing.

This is too cute. Being a spinner too I love anything with a sheep motif. Nice work.

Is this type of thing possible on my Union 36?

Thanks everyone for looking at my project post.  This weaving is done on a 4-shaft loom, threaded to rosepath (12341432) and woven in straight draw 2/2 twill.  If you have only 2 shfts you'd have to hand-pick the sheds -- not a good option.

Bonnie.
