England, a nation of shopkeepers. 🛒

A thread of fascinating Victorian shops, each with their own individual character. 🧵

A meticulously arranged window display and judging by the hanging sign, a maker of spectacles too.

Ironmonger, tinsmith and bell hanger. The shop keeper, wearing a long white apron, stands in the doorway with garden forks, spades, baskets, broom heads, and buckets.

Ineffable May 2024, Day 23: Shopkeepers

I'm back at it with the handpainted needlepoint canvases again today. Here's a little 4 inch (10 cm) design featuring all of the named Whickber Street shopkeepers.

From the top left we have: Justine, Maggie, Mrs. Sandwich, Mutt, Aziraphale, Ms. Cheng, Mr. Arnold, Nina, and Mr. Brown.

I really struggled with finding the right mix of colors for skin tones, but hopefully I'll find threads that will be a better match.

I'm going to have so much to stitch once June rolls around! Expect reblogs as pieces are finished.
