Grief is so strange. One minute you’re amazing and the next you’re not. With each loss it’s so hard to try to navigate through each day and doing simple things like eating becomes a chore or just non-existent. I just have to say Quyana to everyone who is kind. Quyana to everyone who is uplifting. And if you are struggling you are not alone. Each and everyone of us is going through a silent battle so I hope you always choose kindness ❤️ | Sew Yup'ik

Waqaa! It’s Nikki with Sew Yup’ik I wanted to show you how I draw and trace my patterns on the sea otter and then I will just cut them directly from the board. And then once they’re cut it then I will sew with them. Happy cutting ❤️ #sewyupik #yupik #fyp #sharingalaska #alaska #indigenous #indigenous #alaskalife #indigenousartist #indigenousart #alaskaliving | Sew Yup'ik

Hi waqaa it’s Nikki with Sew Yup’ik. This is how I stretch my sea otters and why I stretch my sea otters. This process works for me and I am just sharing how I stretch them. I keep them on the board until I am ready to cut into them and sew. I like using a box cutter when cutting out my fur but there are so many other tools you can use like and uluaq, exacto knife, and others. I hope you found this helpful.

Waqaa, It’s Nikki with Sew Yup’ik. I wanted to share a little more about the whole maqi process and how I take mine. Usually we go in and out of the hot room after splashing up to two hours. And once we are happy and relaxed then we will wash with basins in the hot room after it’s cooled down. The maqivik is more than just a sauna it is so therapeutic and relaxing. And sometimes it’s the only space where I can really let out all my emotions and leave them in the maqi. I have been steaming since

This is how I prep my nasqurrun sewing kits for my workshops. I like to cut my canvas 6” doubled on the fold and 20” wide. So it ends up being 12” by 20” but on the fold it’s 6”. And then I’ll do a finished edge on the ends and they’re ready to rock and roll! Happy sewing ❤️ #sewyupik #yupik #fyp #sharingalaska #alaska #alaskalife #indigenous #indigenousartist #alaskaliving #indigenousart | Sew Yup'ik

Hi Waqaa 🤍 it’s Nikki with Sew Yup’ik I’m starting to look ahead at my summer & fall 2026 teaching schedule and wanted to put the feeler out. If your community, culture camp, school, or organization is interested in hosting a sewing or cultural workshop, I’d love to hear from you. The best way to bring me in is through a grant-funded workshop, which allows community members to attend at a lower cost or free, making it more accessible for everyone. 📧 Please email me at sewyupikif you’d like to

Waqaa it’s Nikki with Sew Yup’ik I wanted to show you how I stretch sea otters aka block stretching. I learned this trick from my friend Heather @akmoosie there are other ways but this is the easiest. I got these sea otters from Tommy and I shared his post on my Sew Yup’ik page of his inventory. And no I didn’t say the f%#k word I said agka 😂 I hope this helps but I only stretch it once and then I leave it on the board until I’m ready to cut and use. Happy stretching and happy sewing ❤️ #sewyup
