shop update - eskimos

Im updating the shop today even though these eskimos are meant for the market on saturday.
Its my thing. It has the effect of keeping me going if I feel like slowing down my sewing. To have the anticipation of seeing if they get snapped up gives me a slow buzz during the week. Plus there was that time when I sewed all week and then whisked the eskimos off to market only to have no record of what the sold ones looked like.
So here are three that were started a few weeks ago that I didnt get to finish until today.






Im loving the yellowy cream embroidered cotton on the back of this latest pink and blue.
So wintery and rich and buttery.
I think I must be hungry.
Lasagne is being made for dinner at my place by the chef, Navarh. Which is so appreciated cos then I can chill out and sew and have a tipple of ginger wine while im at it. We are checking out some larger rental properties as well this week but thats a story for another day.
Whats on the menu at yours tonight?

You're just so clever!! I don't know how you stay so motivated. And how on earth you whip up these eskimos so jolly fast!! It takes me so long to do the most simple of tasks!!

Good luck on finding a bigger place. Rental prices are RETARDED lately. We are in the same boat. Do we swallow the 4th rent rise in 2 years in our current rental or try for something else. We have about 4 weeks to figure it out!

Hello!! I am in love with your eskimo jackets. Too too cute. I bought a pdf to make a jacket for my small person a while ago, I should probably make it before winter is over... Love your shop.
