We've cut and sewn all the available brown corduroy, but we have a little bit of red left. Speak up quickly!
And for kicks we threw a pair onto this Harvest Gold pinafore.

Fall Critters - Owls
Whigs and Tories loved little critters. We've definitely established this! We've added Owls this year:
We've got the brown corduroy Longalls on display and for sale at The Lazy Daisy Gift Store in Williamsburg and the Etsy shop. Aren't they cute? Cozy soft corduroy offers nostalgic throwback and the little owls are individually hand cut and hand sewn.

JonJon's in Orange
My mother is our best customer. It is fun. One of her friends is blessed with a grandchild and Mutti calls me up and says "what do you have in the way of JonJon's or CrissCross pinafores" and we chat about what is made up already and what fabric is in the sewing room.
Mutti's good friend Aunt Kathy was recently blessed with a new grandson and so Mutti sent me a text "I need one of those crab JonJons and maybe something else, they are very preppy" Mutti is from New Jersey, and sometimes she forgets that a good many Southern Mamas dress their babies a certain way and it isn't "preppy" it is just how they do in the south. Now I happen to know that this new little baby's Mama went to school at the University of Tennessee and they very kindly have their colors listed with https://brand.utk.edu/colors/palettes/ and even more helpfully they note which colors are not in their palette and should be avoided at all costs. In my experience you really cannot go wrong incorporating Mama's school colors. So I suggested a little romper / jonjon/ long all (or whatever else you wish to call it) in orange and white check. Mutti thought that sounded like a good idea and so I went shopping. Wouldn't you know? Nobody has orange and white check anyplace? I did find a sweet little orange and gray flannel though. So I bought some and I'm making it up. We will see if Mutti likes it. I do, and orange and gray are not even my colors. But it is so cozy and fall-ish and the flannel is really nice to work with.
So now I'm having fun with school colors. Which colors are your colors? I'd love to do an informal poll and find out if I've got more orange and blue followers or maroon and burnt orange. And I know I could get some attention with that orange and regalia combo. So if you are so inclined, I'd love to know, what colors are your colors?

A little Green and Gold
This Flannel print with Gold feather stripes on Green initially looked like it would pair nicely with our Chocolate corduroy with the Christmas Trees all over... and then it was being cut
and so we are making it up with gold accents for football fans and with red accents for winter holidays. Your choice.
available on our Etsy site and through custom order https://www.etsy.com/shop/WhigsandTories?ref=hdr_shop_menu
who are the Williamsburg Hornets? check this out: Williamsburg Hornets Football
haven't heard of William and Mary. We won't judge: William and Mary, Williamsburg
"oh, William & Mary colors"
"and Hornets"
"oooh! aaah!"
Think parades, tailgates, fall days at the stadium
and so we are making it up with gold accents for football fans and with red accents for winter holidays. Your choice.
