    I am absolutely fascinated with this woman! She is like a child yet my eyes say she is older. I see her nice and it’s like a child’s movement yet her creativity screams experience and thoughtfulness of an older woman. I am 56 and at 5 thought myself to be grown and I behaved as such. Now at 56 my bones ache and I could never move like this woman. And I have very little creativity or imagination. She is marvelous and inspiring and confusing and makes others feel so good! Much love from an older than she should be woman in Durham, NC who will be watching you every chance she gets.

    Oh Victoria you exude Oneness. I adore your creativity and style Victoria. What an amazing up cycle of joining the skirt to the blouse. Love to hear about more dinner parties. A theatrical wonder. What an amazing house. You certainly stamped your personality on it. Thank The Lord for Richard and Victoria Mackenzie Childs. That beaded curtain is heavenly and then the thistle fringing on top is stunning.. How lovely to hear about the beaders. How inspirational. I am just finishing a Thistle design bobbin lace pattern that will be inserted in a finger plate. Thank you for sharing this. 😘🙏❤️

      @victoriamackenzie-childs7215  3 года назад +2

      Dearest Susannah,
      You know, you have hit the nail on the head !The seeming attention to material detail, is ofno actual substance at all. It is simply a way to express kindness, kindness & gratitude for us all -for the joy of the origins of our way of expressing through material mediums of communication.
      But all of that is simply a reflection. It is simply a material manifestation of the fact that all communication is from God to his individual sons & Daughters -to each one is US! The song of a heart is a direct, spiritual expression of His direct communication, His Gifts!
      That is whatever celebrate here, The song in our hearts is the closest thing to Reality! That is what you found to be the ultimate gift.
      I’m so glad I sang to you. Often I don’t when I feel like it because it is really just congregational singing, to be listened to a a whole, so all the off sounds blend and somehow, the spirit comes though. I don’t mean to offend. But so glad you hear it as it is meant to be, songs and praising gosh together.😇

    • @wholeinthesky1758
      @wholeinthesky1758 Год назад

      I don’t think it was stolen I use to but if you take a loan and can’t pay it it’s called being an adult and admitting you messed up. No matter how sweet you say something dealing with facts and owning your mistakes makes you relatable to people. Otherwise it’s like white washing the truth. I think being honest. I was upset at first too but when I think about it I wanted to buy a fbo but I went to the collage. They have a department that runs the numbers to see if the fbo would be successful. The numbers came back no. You have to live within your means. I think maybe just being honest with herself and us might mature her we are no longer kids.

If you would like to support like one would to a busker dancing on a street corner, we have a wonderful means for doing so. Patreon is a support system where you can contribute to Yankee Ferry and the works of my channel with as little or as much, monthly, for as long as you like … I think even one time. Something like $5 per MONTH is such a grace.
      Just going on Patreon and typing in Victoria MacKenzie-Childs and then just deciding after you learn if you like the idea … it is worth a thought, I think😊

    Oh my stars! This is another beautiful video you gave us. I just love this house, what a treasure! I love everything I have seen so far. But the windows with the hanging mixed beads and the top handmade glass bead valance is just amazing to see! I just love that, the work put into that is amazing. I would like to try and make one for my own windows someday. But I don't think I have the time and the patience at my age now ...I agree, learning from you how to mix different patterns with different colors brings out a boring wall. I know this house is the home to the people now living there. But it also could be a living "Real" MacKenzie-Childs Museum! I also like to mention your handsewn plaid skirt, which has a Scottish flair to it. So well made and not like any other I have seen before with the buttons to attach with a shirt. Victoria, you continue to amaze me with all your beautiful works of art. And I love the stories you tell of when you once lived in this very old home. You mentioned something about how old that home is, around in the late 1700's. I just love, love love old homes! If walls could talk, what stories they could tell us from the past. Thanks Victoria, for sharing with us.
