Hope you are doing well. My home was severely damaged due to the hurricane. Hope you are okay

Praying that y’all are safe and sheltered . Praying that God is providing for your family as He has all along and will continue to provide for all your needs. That He continues to heal those things that are out of His perfect created order in your body. ❤❤❤ love you Diane

Don’t know how to reach you. I pray you and your family are okay🌸🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Well, Diann, even if you are okay with dry home and power, you are probably doing outreach for folks nearby. Just checking!

Diann, think of you and hope you have not been impacted by the storm please let us here from you if you can.

Thinking of you Diann. Are you ok? Please leave a heart. 🙏♥♥

Just sending good wishes and hope you and yours are well. I have family in the western part of ❤North and South Carolina, right across the border from each other. They are fine now so hoping you are also.❤

I hope you are ok after the hurricane ❤

I know you live in near the Blue Ridge Parkway and praying for all in the areas of flooding. I hope you are well and safe. We are in Wilkes County NC and we have areas that are flooded with people trapped in there homes and are in need. I am guessing your community is the same. God Bless you and all who have been in he path of the storm. God will get us through this. Our county is not as bad as many other in the western mountains.

Hi, Diann! Love from sunny and warm West Sacramento with food and power -- things we take for granted until they are gone. Somehow I got the impression that you live on a hill like Jamie and Claire Fraser (Outlander) settled. They ate strawberries, fell in love with the view, made love, and chose the location to settle -- Fraser's Ridge! I hope your daughter, family, church family -- all you and yours are dry and well and have power. To my mind, NC is a sort of cultural center, an artist's colony for the whole country. I pray all the supplies, samples, book drafts, pictures, etc. are high and dry or can be recovered. I did hear from Folkwear, and they are doing pretty well, no damage. Much love! I'll watch for new stuff from you! Just 3 minutes to report in!

Hey Diann, I did watch your this video when it came out and so glad you got to meet up with sewing friends!!! I wanted to check on you because of the weather reports for western NC. Are you and your family okay? I sure hope so ❤️

Thanks for the great ideas. I love the skirt pattern. Glad to learn you can skip the zipper and love adding pockets anywhere possible. Glad I found your channel. ❤

So much fun hearing about your meetup with wonderful UA-cam sewing friends! Your top is a lovely color on you and a great style. As for the fabric buying, well, accidents happen...😄. I am glad your doctor is hopeful a longer interval between treatments may work out for you and will continue to pray for you. My husband and I had to unexpectedly care for a lovely second cousin of his at the end of her life this year, including planning her funeral. There was stress in trying to make sure we did things as well as we could but it was also a gift to be able to help her when she needed it and then honor her with the funeral arrangements as it was our last chance to do something for her in this world. I have no doubt everything you did for your uncle was the right and best thing to do.

Arent Carol & Chris just the sweetest? I am willing to bet Carol handmade and embroidered all your gifts. She has made me so many beautiful things over the last couple years when we have met up. So glad you hot to see all those sweet girls. Carol spoke so highly of you when I talked to her recently. Your PDAG dress is adorable,. I love polka dots. I cant wait to see how your modified Celeste dress turns out. I have that pattern cut out but have never made it. I add little pockets in my hubby’s clothes for his insulin pump. Best of luck with your eye!!!❤

Always enjoy our time together, and, can’t wait for us to get together again! 💗

I bet Carole embroidered those strawberries on her embroidery machine. I pray you get to keep spreading your shots out longer.

17:43 when you added your piece of paper to lengthen your skirt bottom, did you not grade out to get the size on the bottom the same as the top? This is a channel on what not to do when sewing!! Not true not true. I learn so much from you! The one thing I'm learning this week from you is not to give up sewing.😅

I love your PDAG dress.

Diann, I will be starstruck also to meet them! You too! So many wonderful people who are so talented. Your blouses look beautiful! I think I have that pattern. I have to go and look at it and see if it's in my stash.

Hello Diann, sounds like you had a wonderful time with so many great You Tubers, esp Carole! Sounds sew fun! lol. Hope you are doing well, and sewing , when you can,,,, I am working on my PDAG dresses and need to finish up soon. Take care and happy sewing,,, Nancy from Ft Wayne, In. ( Ps I’m north of Indianapolis. I know you know,,, I was just adding it because you said you’d been to Indy.)

Wow Diann! Your navy top is beautiful. I initially passed over this pattern but now I have to pick it up since seeing it on you! 🥰 It's so great that you met Carole. She's a sweetheart! I've had the pleasure of meeting up with her twice. I would ABSOLUTELY love to meet up with you if I'm ever in Tennessee! Have a great week! 💖

Delightful video. Happy about the progress with your eye!!!

As soon as I saw you on this video I thought you look so pretty!!! The dress is perfect for you and your hair looks so nice too!!! I will be sure to watch Katinka’s( probably misspelled her name) video. Thank you Diann ❤️

Hi Diann, Your videos are always so lovely to watch and I am sure you will be as lovely in real life. I love your fabrics especially the pink with I think lemon flowers! can't wait to see what you make with all of them. I am sure you will have completed your Uncle's funeral arrangements with kindness and sensitivity. Fingers crossed that you don't have to have your eye injections too soon. Have a lovely weekend. x

Oh Diann you had me in tears talking about our lovely visit. I really think I have met a kindred spirit in you and you are just as adorable in person as you are on screen ❤ So sorry about your Uncle, I have missed a couple of videos but glad you had a lovely day for the 'send off'. That blouse you are wearing is just super and I have that pattern and not made it, the neckline and colour really suits you. Great plan re the dress and to use a tried and true pattern on that gorgeous fabric. Thanks again for your gifts and we are definitely keeping in touch ❤ 🍓 xxx

You always inspire me. I am 77 and moved back to my hometown, but my sewing time has suffered. I don't like change. Been making small projects but have not dived In to garments yet again. Had breast cancer and gained weight, so I look good in nothing. But I so enjoy watching your post. Thank you.😊

I am thrilled that you got to see Andra and Cynthia again, AND got to meet Carole. I am absolutely certain those sachet pouches were embroidered for YOU on her machine. She chose that strawberry template for YOU because she has heard and seen what you apparently think about strawberries, darling Diann. I got home from an overnight to Fayetteville AR to an unexpected chunky package from Fabric Mart. that I had completely forgotten about. I had only OPENED and examined my last order which was received just before Fabric Mart's website transition. I don't have a need for adaptive clothing yet, but remember a friend who had a port for infusions during the last years of her life. I believe she had a local dressmaker make openings that could be covered by a "pocket" flap or zipped closed. They sounded very much like a couple of garments I bought 33 years ago to facilate breastfeeding of my infant son. I think that investigating techniques or skills we can transfer to the benefit of ourselves or loved ones is useful even if we don't need to use those skills right now. ❤ you, Diann. Blessings on you and your husband this coming week. Greetings from the Ozarks! -Kelly

Cute top💕

Great video, so glad to see you back and catch up on your sewing and your life. Thank you for sharing.

Diann, so glad you got to meet up with those lovely ladies, and what thoughtful gifts. I purchased sewing labels like those from Temu. Diann, I am so happy your eyes are improving.

Nice makes. I love your new fabric. I think you need to keep the side seams the same original length. If you keep it like a triangle the sides will too long compared to the front of your dress.

Diane all the fabric is so beautiful, Carol is so crafty you got a lot of goodies. I love the embroidery work 😊

Bless you for taking on those big decisions and actions to get your uncle to his final resting place next to his wife. Without realizing it, you (and probably your husband) were the right individuals to handle those details. Can’t wait to see your refashioned Celeste dress. I’m sure it’ll be great.

Hmm. I have accidentally bought fabric myself! 😜

I love the top you are wearing. I saw that Fabric Mart has a new website but haven’t ordered anything yet. All of the fabrics you ordered are beautiful.❤ I’m so glad we all were able to meet up with Carole and her husband. She picked the perfect gifts for you with all the strawberries. 🍓 😊

So happy for you meeting Carole what a wonderful time you had with your sewing friends great video thank you ❤😊😊

I’m tickled you got the chance to meet those lovely ladies! Your top is beautiful! 🥰❤️

I'm so glad you enjoyed your time with Carol and Chris. Her gifts for you just fit you perfectly. I always enjoy your sewing videos and all the things you share with your viewers.

Glad to see you back. Sounds like you have really enjoyed the past few weeks, so blessed.

Missed you, too! Enjoyed your makes and stories. 😊-Deborah

I love the linen you cut out! It is going to be so lovely

I adore Carol, I am so happy you were able to meet her. I love the bag and the lavender bag! Love your fabrics you got!

What a pretty dress, and very pretty on you - the back of your hair looks adorable in the photos , too! I built a stash while I was working, helping my mother and still had kids at home - I kept thinking, "Someday I'll have time to use it!" My mom had macular degeneration, too, and she also had a bit of a stash that she just kept chipping away at and when she passed she had used almost all of it - I need to be as good as she was!

I can't believe I missed this!! The top you have on is so cute. The pants and the pattern is just awesome. Oh it was super fun to do a collaboration with you!!

Thank you so much, Diann. I’ve been sewing a very long time and learned many things from this video. You have such a calm and humble way about you that evokes a peacefulness and doesn’t mask your excitement and joy. God bless you.

Hello I really enjoyed your video.

The dress came out lovely!

What a pleasure it is to meet you in this video. Being a naturally curious person, I love to see how other people do up their sewing areas. I'm so glad I found your video and I'm sure to learn a thing or two. You're so organized and I really need help in that area. Thank you! I am a happy new subscriber!

i love your dress! it’s so pretty! this fabric is just beautiful!!

I used to sew in the closet. Literally in a closet sitting on the floor with my sewing machine sitting on a box. That was 30+ years ago. Now I have the smallest bedroom in the house. I’m so thrilled with it
