Who would make comments about the noise of your shoes? Some people have nothing better to do than complain about the minutia! Loved all your makes and I could see the stitching on that last skirt! Darling and creative! Kudos to your family for being such willing models!
At first I was all "does she have pants on?" and then I saw the shorts. Thanks to you, I pulled out the sewing machine, took some scrap material and made a top to see if I could with your hints. I did, so I'm going to make it with real material!! I've never used binding for a neckline before and it was SO EASY! Please do more construction videos!!!
So I have become addicted to sewing videos on UA-cam - mostly thanks to you and I have to say, you need to have your own DIY channel because your natural freshness is so fun to watch. You are such a natural in front of your home made phone videos that I think you can charm an audience nationwide. Keep posting so we can enjoy your life..
Love your videos. Don't let comments change you too much. There are so many opinions out there and what one likes another one won't so keep being your sweet self.
Love the kimono outfit, and love the tie die shirt... Well, I love all of them. Collins shorts are dynamite... So great that he loves them. Brad is the new star of the fashion show. Love his shirt, and his modelling. Oh, gosh. So many great makes. Inspiring.
All marvelous, but my favorite is the last outfit; it looks especially great on you. It's nice to have a family that appreciates your work. It tickled me that Collin had it all planned exactly how he would accessorize the shorts.
Hello. I've never ever written a comment, but you have Inspired me so much I just want you to know. I have binge watched most of your videos and I wish there were more. I started sewing for the first time just 2 months ago and I can't wait until I can sew as well as you. Please don't go anywhere, keep these amazing videos coming.
Love your new "runway" rug, it softens the sound of your footsteps so we can hear what you have to say better! Thanks for that. What can I say - everything you do is great.
Just when I think you have outdone yourself on the videos, you surpass that thought with another outstanding video! The kwik sew black dress is killer, that is one chic dress! The tunic with leggings is totally my style, as an older woman I'm all for comfort. The kimono is perfect for church.
Love the May makes! My youngest is just a few years older (23 this Sept.) and is Colin also. 😊 handsome young man there Mom! He was so sweet being involved with the sewing. My Colin is also really sweet and supportive. Our children are such a blessing. I miss the homeschooling days. They grow up so, so fast. I can hardly believe it. God bless and keep your precious family.
I ma a new sewist, and watching your Makes and Construction videos is like attending a Master Class. I appreciate your enthusiasm, your free-thought narrative, your real life modeling of the pieces and fabrics, and you frank discussion of how the patterns. I gives me hope to know that sometimes the pattern is just bad, and it's not necessarily my fault! It's like I'm chilling and chatting in line for the cutting table at Joann's, with someone who really knows her stuff, but is still willing to coach a newbie. I super appreciate you! Thank you!
Awesome job this lazy month! You are the best Viv, so happy and bubbly all the time. Thank you for sharing your talent and family with us. I had never seen Colin what a handsome young man. I see a lot of you and Brad in him. Both personalities for sure.
Thank you for showing tell! And for sharing your handsome men with us! I'm so happy to see you have such a beautiful and wonderful family! I also really appreciate when you show us how to set in sleeves flat! Thank you so much!
Love Brad's shirt the fabric is lovely and really suits him. I think it great that your family support you with your channel. Love all your makes. So kind of you for sharing your patterns, makes and sewing tips. You are a lovely kind lady, thank you :)
Saving the best for last! The color block dress is a stunner, I'm glad you gave detail with the leaf embroidery stitch, nice touch! Always enjoy your videos and I actually like the sound of your shoes, wish others didn't mind.
I love your monthly makes, and I don’t mine your shoes. I can’t believe someone comment on sound your shoe made on the floor.It is wonderful how your family supports you in your sewing. Your son even said thank you to you for the shorts. You are very blessed.
Thanks Patricia! There was a small band of folks who don’t like shoes on wood floors. It’s just second nature to me and I rather like it - I’m a wood fanatic and most of my shoes are wood. I do feel blessed that my family cheers on my sewing. I want it to be that way for everyone, I guess it’s not. I will count my blessings!😃
Darling outfits! Thanks for working so hard on them. I really appreciate your vids. You are so blessed to have those 2 handsome men helping you also lol. I'm always amazed how you take simple patterns and hit it out of the park with your fabulous choice of fabrics! Feel free to keep doing sewing tutorials, too😊
I called my husband over to see Brad's shirt ...we both liked it on him so much. Also liked everything you wore...kudos on your belt! Thanks Colin for modeling those cool shorts.
I loved EVERYTHING! Your son's shorts were great. I am trying to find my favorite knits so any comments on what you feel about them is appreciated. Again-great looks!
Shoes doesn't or shouldn't bother anyone..People are always looking for something to gripe about! Finding fault isn't the answer..Doing a good job,keep it up
You are delightful :-) I think the fit on all of your outfits are perfect. My fave is the black dress and the block skirt and kimono at the end. I can't believe you put the throw rug down for the grumpys lol. Thank you for sharing your makes xx
debrakwilliams48 I totally agree... and Vivmom worked that runway! LOL... Haters are always going to hate, no matter what and I would not give them power to dictate my plate-form. They can always go to another channel. 👏🏼🙏🏽💪🏼👍🏽
I don't know if I'm the only one, but I did suggest a little rug for her show and tells, and hate had nothing to do with it. I am subscribed to this channel, and have posted Vivmom's link to my facebook for all my friends because I love her videos! I am 68, and maybe it's partly my age, but I found the extra noise to be a distraction from hearing what Vivmom was saying. I was very happy to see she took up the suggestion, whether from me or someone else, and added the little rug. I know it's a little more effort for her, but I GREATLY appreciated it! Thanks, Vivmom! I want to share a photo with you, but can't find your facebook to do that, but I thought I wrote to you on a facebook page previously?
I love all of your makes. You look fabulous in them. I can’t pick a favorite because they are all wonderful. Your family is so supportive of you. It is so easy to see the affection you all have for each other. Your videos make my day.
Everything you made is fantastic. Of course, I love Your Son's shorts because they look great. I knew they would in that fabric! It possibly helps that I live approximately 30 minutes from Del Mar. (I lived all my life (57 yrs.) in same area & I have never been to the races.) Oh, my favorite on you is the black dress. I always like the trims on the bottom of your dresses. Well, I just like everything as usual! God Bless.
Love this video. It does gives us lots of ideas and I love to see you talk lightly about your makes. I don’t want my sewing to take over my life and I think you are a great example of how to enjoy it, even when it doesn’t go our way.
Another winner! I love your family and the support they give you. I loved all your projects, but the last one with the skirt is wonderful. Very creative, lady. you are talented. Thanks again for a great video.
Hi Viv! Another fun video. I'm so glad you got your inspiration back. Love the color blocked skirt and tops. That tank with wide straps looks like a good one to hide bra straps. I'll have to check it out. You look great with a belt. Great makes as usual as well as the sleeve lengthening tip. Enjoy the summer weather!
You are so inspiring💝💕 keep up the great work. Btw you and your whole family are gorgeous! Like the Ken and Barbie with kids in normal life. I love that they support your sewing too. My family has always supported mine as well but I've never really tried to sew for the grown men so I've watched you with your husband now several times and now I've decided to show my husband what there is to offer men real manly men not just PJ's and such.
Thank you Viv for inspiring me yet again. Your makes are wonderful and I always look forward to your videos. I was rolling my eyes that someone has commented about you clip clopping on your floor. If I were you, I would whip that rug away and tap dance through your next video !😂❤
I will echo what Nancy said below. Kudos to your hubby and son. Those makes were great! And that fabric for the shorts looked perfect.☀️ Hahaha! Whoever made comments on the shoes on wood floor I’m absolutely sure they don’t have or like wood floors...🤔😆 I will just comment personally here about the long dress with the long front tie. I was noticing as you untied it to show different tying options... I think the longer tie ‘tails’ blend in more with the longer dress, so that (to me) it looked like it all flowed together better, than perhaps it would with a short tie, since it’s a long dress. Just my thoughts. And whether or not you end up liking the dress, I think it’s beautiful and love the fabric. And that last 3-piece outfit with the color block skirt... A W E S O M E! Wow! Did I love that? I did!🤩 I could see the same pattern made from more holiday-ish fabric for a beautiful Christmas outfit! I’m afraid I no longer do skirts, but I’d definitely do that with some pants. Everything was an A+. Loved it all, and the video! Thanks! And thank you, LORD, for the beautiful sunshine!☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️🌷
Thank you for you and your family modeling the items you make. It gives me encouragement and thoughts about what i'd like to make. So much easier when you see what someone has made and is wearing it. You are so great!!! And i think the sound of your floors when you walk on them is cool, it reminds me of an old house. Love creaking floors. 👍😊
I read thru all your comments..lol and I have to agree with what everyone else said!! Love all the makes, especially the tie dyed tunic and the last one with the color blocked skirt and kimono. I've already ordered those two patterns.❣️❣️
I loved this video. I like that none of the men in your family mind modeling their shirts and shorts. You look so lovely in everything you make and I do love everything you make. However that last outfit was absolutely stunning.
I love the belted waist on you- it highlights your waist. Sometimes the drape of some fabrics over a fuller bust makes it look like the person has a thicker waist. You have a very small waist so the cinching in looks beautiful. You also have the perfect legs for shorter lengths but all lengths look great on you.
I love how your family supports you! What troopers! Love Colin's fashion ideas to complete his look. He's adorable! The black dress looks so good on you! It may have been a PIA but it looks great. I think it was my favorite in this video.
Love those makes!! We've had our Grand kids at our house for a week, so tonight I'm back behind my sewing machine. Your video gives me ALL kinds of inspiration. Thanks
I think it's great that your cute and handsome family supports you and models for you!! Love your makes! There for a moment I thought kwik sew was not doing well with the pattern but redeemed themselves with the cute tie dye and the last outfit. They look very expensive and not homemade at all! Bravo!!💃 So exciting and rewarding!! Great job, and you are amazing for all you do. ❤
Love your May makes, Brads shirt and Colons shorts are really nice and fit them perfect. , I think your little blue knit dress with flower pocket, tye dyed out fit and Kimono outfit are my favorites on you. Thanks for the tips and inspiration.
Hi Vivmom. Love all your looks but the last one, I love especially. You inspire me. Shout out to your family for supporting you by modeling your makes.
You have been sewing like crazy! Your two wonderful men are looking GREAT thanks to you! Love the shirts!🤗..Loved your talented extras you do with the outfits ..so beautiful! Loved everything and you should be proud for working so hard having the fun of making them. I'm working on a nightgown using searsucker fabric for a nice summer gown.... It's the pattern that you love so much too... Simplicity 3 5 7 3... I'm having fun doing the sleeveless one without the ruffle View A ....( Didn't have enough fabric for ruffle😱)...I'm making my own bias tape and everything is turning out great.🤗 What a joy to see you on here today...thanks!👏❤️😺
Beautiful!!!! You must have a giant wardrobe to choose from. You all are so adorable and how nice your family supports you! They certainly benefit from your fabulous skills!!!
Oh my goodness, you just make my day! (I don’t understand about the shoes and the whiners.). You’ve made some lovely things this month again - will definitely be trying some of these patterns. You are such an inspiration! Thank you so much for sharing. Plus, your tutorials are great! I love it that your handsome fellas participate. Thanks again!
Thanks for another great video. I have to say the last three outfits were so so flattering on you. Especially the last one, the brown skirt with the little jacket. Wow! You looked A-amazing!!!
Your husband is a crack up! LOVE THE TIE DYE! also you look fantastic in the color block skirt and kimono. Your channel is becoming my fast favorite. Thank you for all the hard work you put into your sewing for us!
Love all the May made makes. Love hearing the changes you made to make the patterns fit your tastes and that of your husband and children, and they worked.
My fav is the Kimono and color block skirt. It really looks great on you. Your son is so handsome - he has a career modeling your creations! Love seeing the whole family in on the makes. Thanks, Viv!
Love watching your channel and thanks bunches for spending the time sewing and giving us great advise. It’s also a huge benefit to see how they actually look after sewn. After seeing all your knit projects I want to try sewing with it, just intimidating. 😬 Again thanks bunches❤️❤️❤️
You can do it, GG! Knit projects are fun because...they’re usually quick, they have a forgiving fit, you can insert the sleeves flat, you’ll build your confidence! The trick is finding a good weight knit - at least for starting out - so that you maintain control over it. Call on me if you need help!👍
I don't usually thing this - but I really love them all this month! Especially that tie-dyed knit top. The LBD is so cute and flattering - I just ran across a similar pattern about half an hour ago - planning things out, etc. I didn't think I'd like it but yours looks so good that I might try it! You have so many great tips - cutting at the lengthen/shorten line, adding trim at the hem, using an embroidery stitch at the hem! Who among us ever actually uses those stitches? Well done. Beautiful.
Your enthusiasm for sewing is contagious! I'm starting to tinker with my sewing machine again lol. Love all your outfits but that last one looks amazing on you! 💜
You are so talented and have very good taste. I love the way the men in your life gladly model for you. That says a lot about you. You have inspired me to sew again.
I’m always impressed with the amount of items you complete in a month....it’s amazing!! Loved all the makes but, my favorite was the very last outfit.....so very chic and it’s darling on you💜! You are such a sweetheart Viv and always a joy to watch!!
I love seeing your projects. You have made me view my sewing in a different way - as a hobby! I used to feel guilty about making something to wear when I didn’t need it. But if I look at it as a hobby (and mental therapy), it’s OK to make a shirt just for the fun of it!
I love your videos! You’re such an inspiration. Hoping to try some garments as soon as I get moved into my new home. Can’t believe people complained about the sound of your shoes🙄
Love your makes, tips and comments. Yes, yes, yes to the belted S1810 dress! It looks great on you and shows your shape. Might look mumu-ish without the belt. The guys are great models.
Love your new sews. I especially like the leaf motif bolero, beige tank, and the two-tone skirt. If I were to make the bolero, I would extend the length to where it meets the dark brown of the skirt. That way, when seen from behind, it would appear more stream-lined. I do like my tops a little longer. However, you look smashing in this outfit. I just love your videos. You exceed many of the women who have been on the sewing front for years. I enjoy your fresh, honest approach to sewing. And I do appreciate your encouragement.
Great makes! Your guys are very sweet and supportive. Loved the last outfit the best. Sewing in the sleeves flat is a great tip, I do that as well. I also find that constructing that way means less pulling on the underarm seam...the long seam takes the stress. I primarily sew athletic items in Lycra/spandex.
I love so many of the things you made in this video. Your special littles touches are so good. And your videos are sooo entertaining. I always look for them on you tube. I am not sure how I came across you videos but I sure am glad I did. Keep up the good sewing. Sharon
Who would make comments about the noise of your shoes? Some people have nothing better to do than complain about the minutia!
Loved all your makes and I could see the stitching on that last skirt! Darling and creative!
Kudos to your family for being such willing models!
At first I was all "does she have pants on?" and then I saw the shorts. Thanks to you, I pulled out the sewing machine, took some scrap material and made a top to see if I could with your hints. I did, so I'm going to make it with real material!! I've never used binding for a neckline before and it was SO EASY! Please do more construction videos!!!
So I have become addicted to sewing videos on UA-cam - mostly thanks to you and I have to say, you need to have your own DIY channel because your natural freshness is so fun to watch. You are such a natural in front of your home made phone videos that I think you can charm an audience nationwide. Keep posting so we can enjoy your life..
Love your videos. Don't let comments change you too much. There are so many opinions out there and what one likes another one won't so keep being your sweet self.
Love the kimono outfit, and love the tie die shirt... Well, I love all of them. Collins shorts are dynamite... So great that he loves them. Brad is the new star of the fashion show. Love his shirt, and his modelling. Oh, gosh. So many great makes. Inspiring.
All marvelous, but my favorite is the last outfit; it looks especially great on you. It's nice to have a family that appreciates your work. It tickled me that Collin had it all planned exactly how he would accessorize the shorts.

Love your new "runway" rug, it softens the sound of your footsteps so we can hear what you have to say better! Thanks for that. What can I say - everything you do is great.
Love, love your looks! You are so cute and fun to watch. I love how your family supports you in your hobby. Thanks for the inspiration!
Just when I think you have outdone yourself on the videos, you surpass that thought with another outstanding video!
The kwik sew black dress is killer, that is one chic dress!
The tunic with leggings is totally my style, as an older woman I'm all for comfort.
The kimono is perfect for church.
Love the May makes! My youngest is just a few years older (23 this Sept.) and is Colin also. 😊 handsome young man there Mom! He was so sweet being involved with the sewing. My Colin is also really sweet and supportive. Our children are such a blessing. I miss the homeschooling days. They grow up so, so fast. I can hardly believe it. God bless and keep your precious family.
Wow! She's a pro👏
I ma a new sewist, and watching your Makes and Construction videos is like attending a Master Class. I appreciate your enthusiasm, your free-thought narrative, your real life modeling of the pieces and fabrics, and you frank discussion of how the patterns. I gives me hope to know that sometimes the pattern is just bad, and it's not necessarily my fault! It's like I'm chilling and chatting in line for the cutting table at Joann's, with someone who really knows her stuff, but is still willing to coach a newbie.
I super appreciate you! Thank you!
Awesome job this lazy month! You are the best Viv, so happy and bubbly all the time. Thank you for sharing your talent and family with us. I had never seen Colin what a handsome young man. I see a lot of you and Brad in him. Both personalities for sure.
Thank you for showing tell! And for sharing your handsome men with us! I'm so happy to see you have such a beautiful and wonderful family! I also really appreciate when you show us how to set in sleeves flat! Thank you so much!
Love Brad's shirt the fabric is lovely and really suits him. I think it great that your family support you with your channel. Love all your makes. So kind of you for sharing your patterns, makes and sewing tips. You are a lovely kind lady, thank you :)
Saving the best for last! The color block dress is a stunner, I'm glad you gave detail with the leaf embroidery stitch, nice touch! Always enjoy your videos and I actually like the sound of your shoes, wish others didn't mind.
Last garment was just awesome, custom made for sure.
Hi Viv! You are awesome! I love how you did a rolled hem using your serger! Would you do a quick tutorial to show us that? Thanks for everything 💕
This is the tutorial I used. I wrote down the steps and keep them by my machine.😃
m.ua-cam.com/video/INpnCGESHHw/v-deo.html
Awesome! Thank you Viv!
That little black dress looks so elegant on you. You may have started May slow, but you clearly finished strong!
I love your monthly makes, and I don’t mine your shoes. I can’t believe someone comment on sound your shoe made on the floor.It is wonderful how your family supports you in your sewing. Your son even said thank you to you for the shorts. You are very blessed.
Thanks Patricia! There was a small band of folks who don’t like shoes on wood floors. It’s just second nature to me and I rather like it - I’m a wood fanatic and most of my shoes are wood.

Lol, I enjoy your clomping shoe sound. Great makes as usual.
Shoes doesn't or shouldn't bother anyone..People are always looking for something to gripe about! Finding fault isn't the answer..Doing a good job,keep it up
You are delightful :-) I think the fit on all of your outfits are perfect. My fave is the black dress and the block skirt and kimono at the end. I can't believe you put the throw rug down for the grumpys lol. Thank you for sharing your makes xx
Could not wait until your May makes came out! Made my day! Everything is so lovey and yes, you do inspire so many of us!
It’s not a throw rug. It’s a runway! LOL
debrakwilliams48 I totally agree... and Vivmom worked that runway! LOL... Haters are always going to hate, no matter what and I would not give them power to dictate my plate-form. They can always go to another channel. 👏🏼🙏🏽💪🏼👍🏽

I've already ordered those two patterns.❣️❣️
I loved this video. I like that none of the men in your family mind modeling their shirts and shorts. You look so lovely in everything you make and I do love everything you make. However that last outfit was absolutely stunning.
Model Brad is braver then any man I know. He looks good in those shirts you made. Colin looks good in his shorts
I love the belted waist on you- it highlights your waist. Sometimes the drape of some fabrics over a fuller bust makes it look like the person has a thicker waist. You have a very small waist so the cinching in looks beautiful. You also have the perfect legs for shorter lengths but all lengths look great on you.
I like how your husband “works it” for the camera, he’s a hoot! I like the shorts that you made for your son, I love the fabric that you used.
Lucky woman you.... have such willing and handsome models. Good for them!!
fabulous fashion show! Keep sewing.
I love how your family supports you! What troopers! Love Colin's fashion ideas to complete his look. He's adorable! The black dress looks so good on you! It may have been a PIA but it looks great. I think it was my favorite in this video.
Love those makes!! We've had our Grand kids at our house for a week, so tonight I'm back behind my sewing machine. Your video gives me ALL kinds of inspiration. Thanks
The little black dress works well as a day or evening wear. Love it!
VivMom, please, could you put your life on hold and just post videos to watch for all of us who hang on your every word? Thanks, a devoted fan. 🤪🤪
I think it's great that your cute and handsome family supports you and models for you!! Love your makes! There for a moment I thought kwik sew was not doing well with the pattern but redeemed themselves with the cute tie dye and the last outfit. They look very expensive and not homemade at all! Bravo!!💃 So exciting and rewarding!! Great job, and you are amazing for all you do. ❤
Love your May makes, Brads shirt and Colons shorts are really nice and fit them perfect. , I think your little blue knit dress with flower pocket, tye dyed out fit and Kimono outfit are my favorites on you. Thanks for the tips and inspiration.
Hi Vivmom. Love all your looks but the last one, I love especially. You inspire me. Shout out to your family for supporting you by modeling your makes.
You have been sewing like crazy! Your two wonderful men are looking GREAT thanks to you! Love the shirts!🤗..Loved your talented extras you do with the outfits ..so beautiful! Loved everything and you should be proud for working so hard having the fun of making them. I'm working on a nightgown using searsucker fabric for a nice summer gown.... It's the pattern that you love so much too... Simplicity 3 5 7 3... I'm having fun doing the sleeveless one without the ruffle View A ....( Didn't have enough fabric for ruffle😱)...I'm making my own bias tape and everything is turning out great.🤗
What a joy to see you on here today...thanks!👏❤️😺
You are too generous 💝💜❤️💕💜💝
Beautiful!!!! You must have a giant wardrobe to choose from. You all are so adorable and how nice your family supports you! They certainly benefit from your fabulous skills!!!
Oh my goodness, you just make my day! (I don’t understand about the shoes and the whiners.). You’ve made some lovely things this month again - will definitely be trying some of these patterns. You are such an inspiration! Thank you so much for sharing. Plus, your tutorials are great! I love it that your handsome fellas participate. Thanks again!
Total approval. How you put pattern and fabric together is brilliant. Brilliant Family too. Loved it all
Thanks for another great video. I have to say the last three outfits were so so flattering on you. Especially the last one, the brown skirt with the little jacket. Wow! You looked A-amazing!!!
So many beautiful makes!! I love that the men in your life appreciate your sewing so much. Thank you for great tips. ❤️
Your husband is a crack up! LOVE THE TIE DYE! also you look fantastic in the color block skirt and kimono. Your channel is becoming my fast favorite. Thank you for all the hard work you put into your sewing for us!
Loved the dress with big red roses and white trim at hem, and also loved blocked skirt outfit. Both were really nice and looked great on you
I honestly think having time out done you good .
You had more enthusiasm to make and enjoy 😉, your little details are fantastic.
Go enjoy the sun ☀️
I love doing a rolled serged hem as well. 😀 love your videos! Keep me coming!
Love all the May made makes. Love hearing the changes you made to make the patterns fit your tastes and that of your husband and children, and they worked.
My fav is the Kimono and color block skirt. It really looks great on you. Your son is so handsome - he has a career modeling your creations! Love seeing the whole family in on the makes. Thanks, Viv!
You and your family are so cute! Love all your makes - my favorite is the kimono outfit - you look gorgeous in it! Have a blessed day! Xoxo
The last outfit is worthy of hanging on a rack at Neiman Marcus. And I’d buy it.
Loving your outfits Viv 💕💕 The PIA black dress particularly is so cute! Thank you. X
Sara G, Hi I agree, the black dress was really cute!
@@nightingale3875 You just know she will get oodles of compliments on it everywhere she wears it!
Love watching your channel and thanks bunches for spending the time sewing and giving us great advise. It’s also a huge benefit to see how they actually look after sewn. After seeing all your knit projects I want to try sewing with it, just intimidating. 😬 Again thanks bunches❤️❤️❤️
You can do it, GG! Knit projects are fun because...they’re usually quick, they have a forgiving fit, you can insert the sleeves flat, you’ll build your confidence! The trick is finding a good weight knit - at least for starting out - so that you maintain control over it. Call on me if you need help!👍
Ok thanks bunches ❤️😘😘
That kimono and color blocked outfit is fantastic looking. Great fabric/ style matching. The black dress looked awesome as well!
I don't usually thing this - but I really love them all this month! Especially that tie-dyed knit top. The LBD is so cute and flattering - I just ran across a similar pattern about half an hour ago - planning things out, etc. I didn't think I'd like it but yours looks so good that I might try it! You have so many great tips - cutting at the lengthen/shorten line, adding trim at the hem, using an embroidery stitch at the hem! Who among us ever actually uses those stitches? Well done. Beautiful.
Lovely collection Viv, and fitted on a lovely lady. I admire the way that Brad and Colin support you.
I love that your husband and son model also. I've made clothes for my husband and son as well.
Your enthusiasm for sewing is contagious! I'm starting to tinker with my sewing machine again lol. Love all your outfits but that last one looks amazing on you! 💜
Love the black dress, worth the pain 😊👍🏻
Love your fashion shows ❤️💕💜💖💗👍🥰☺️ Thank you for sharing. Take care and God, Chris-Raleigh NC
Your sewing skills, personality, and legs are stellar. rock on Vivvie!
You broke through some design barriers with the kimono top outfit....awesome. I am a big fan of the 3 thread narrow!
tye dye is gorgeous Viv...love it
conservativetothecor: I agree. That one was exquisite; I loved everything about it.
You are so talented and have very good taste. I love the way the men in your life gladly model for you. That says a lot about you. You have inspired me to sew again.
The dress and caftan combo is a total winner and looks great on you
Your husband and son are so sweet to participate in your videos so willingly. Also you look great in black.
Darling makes this time!! You did yourself proud for Me Made May. You sure have some handsome men in your house! LOL 😉😃
Your husband is such a trooper!!
Love all the outfits, especially the last one. Great sewing....Viv!
I’m always impressed with the amount of items you complete in a month....it’s amazing!! Loved all the makes but, my favorite was the very last outfit.....so very chic and it’s darling on you💜! You are such a sweetheart Viv and always a joy to watch!!
I love seeing your projects. You have made me view my sewing in a different way - as a hobby! I used to feel guilty about making something to wear when I didn’t need it. But if I look at it as a hobby (and mental therapy), it’s OK to make a shirt just for the fun of it!
I love your videos! You’re such an inspiration. Hoping to try some garments as soon as I get moved into my new home. Can’t believe people complained about the sound of your shoes🙄
Love your makes, tips and comments. Yes, yes, yes to the belted S1810 dress! It looks great on you and shows your shape. Might look mumu-ish without the belt. The guys are great models.
Love your new sews. I especially like the leaf motif bolero, beige tank, and the two-tone skirt. If I were to make the bolero, I would extend the length to where it meets the dark brown of the skirt. That way, when seen from behind, it would appear more stream-lined. I do like my tops a little longer. However, you look smashing in this outfit. I just love your videos. You exceed many of the women who have been on the sewing front for years. I enjoy your fresh, honest approach to sewing. And I do appreciate your encouragement.
facing PIA dress was fab looking on you!
Love the hi low tie dye:
Thanks Viv for sharing today, I really enjoyed watching!!! Judy
Wow! Great makes!! ❤️
That last outfit is stunning! The tank and skirt go so well together and that kimono is dreamy!
Great makes! Your guys are very sweet and supportive. Loved the last outfit the best. Sewing in the sleeves flat is a great tip, I do that as well. I also find that constructing that way means less pulling on the underarm seam...the long seam takes the stress. I primarily sew athletic items in Lycra/spandex.
New Look 6449 is adorable! I'll have to try it.Also, I'm impressed that Colin would model for you:)
I love so many of the things you made in this video. Your special littles touches are so good. And your videos are sooo entertaining. I always look for them on you tube. I am not sure how I came across you videos but I sure am glad I did. Keep up the good sewing.
