The Medicine Doll Is Going Global!
Donation protected
Dear kindred spirits,
I'm Jerri Shelton, the heart behind Sacred Spirit Weavers in Portland, Oregon, and I invite you to join me on a profound journey.
Crafting Dreams Into Reality
Sacred Spirit Weavers birthed officially in 2021, but its essence has been weaving through my life for over 12 transformative years. As a sole proprietor, woman-owned small business, I've dedicated myself to the sacred, ancient art of needle felting to channel the wisdom of personal archetypes through my SoulCraft Art method.
A Tapestry of Healing
The Medicine Spirit Doll isn't just a doll; it's a sacred archetype to hold meaning and intention. She is a personal muse for women to express the unspoken stories within. Born from my own introspection, experience, and passion for holistic healing, this doll has deeply touched thousands of lives, becoming a mirror of reflection and a vessel for transformation.

Stories That Echo Across Continents
What started in my local community has blossomed into a global movement. This past year I have received numerous heartfelt messages from women across the USA, Canada, Australia, England, Italy, and even Belgium. The Medicine Doll has become a beacon for 'Wounded Healers'—a community of resilient souls finding strength and healing through intentional creativity.
Here is part of a lovely letter I received from Stephanie Faux from Belgium
"I am an art therapist and doula and have always felt a call and a clear connection between art and the healing process. While doing my research on the internet I came across your site.
Like a message fallen from the sky. (I don't even speak English - thanks google translate).
I immediately felt, even in the energy, that I had finally found what I was looking for.
Thanks to your guidance, I quickly managed to make my first doll. What joy!
What power! I've created five Medicine Dolls and they are all reflections of myself.
They are born one by one by surprise, without my having to project anything onto her while creating them. And that is beautiful and surprising.
It's like drawing a card from an oracle, the one that appears corresponds to what I needed. It is magic."
A Journey Beyond Borders
In just two years, we've achieved milestones beyond my wildest dreams:
- An online shop with over 60 vibrant wool colors.
- Handmade Medicine Spirit Dolls touching hearts worldwide.
- Sought-after DIY felting kits empowering women locally and now globally.
- A growing community of women standing strong in authenticity.
Next Chapter: Your Support Matters
I invite you to be a part of this transformative journey, as I embark on the creation of my first online Signature course that includes a specially made felting kit mailed out to each recipient. I have had the great pleasure of teaching numerous, in-demand dollmaker's workshops in my local area and now have a long list of women throughout the USA and beyond asking for an online experience so that they too can take this Medicine Doll journey for themselves. Your support will not only launch this course but propel Sacred Spirit Weavers to new heights. It's time to grow.
Support the Dream, Become the Change
Your contribution will fund the essentials needed to prepare for the launch of my online Signature Course and In Person Retreat Workshops. I need to pre-order wool, materials, and felting supplies to make 100 Medicine Doll kits ready to ship out upon course registration, and a small advertising budget to spread the word.
Also, by making international shipping simpler on Etsy, we open doors to a wider audience and I want to be ready for that too.
I could really use a little help and support for this next phase of growth. I feel proud of what I've achieved so far in such a short time, but at the level I am now, I do not have the budget for the extra supplies needed for expansion happening right now.
A Vision for Tomorrow
Imagine a future where the Medicine Doll's healing touch reaches even more lives. Your support today paves the way for stable growth, additional courses, and a Teacher Training Program—a ripple effect of empowerment for women around the globe.
Join the Circle of Creativity and Healing
To the incredible women who resonate with spirituality and SoulCrafted Art created with intention and purpose, your support is the red thread of connection that weaves this tapestry of change. Together, we can make the Medicine Doll a symbol of strength, healing, and unity.
With gratitude and love,
