    How did you like this new video diary / vlog style from me? It was my first time trying to add music to my video and I had lots of fun selecting music and editing. Would you like to see more videos like this? Let me know!

    Oh Seedling! You gave me happy tears to see your beautiful dress. It meant so many things to you, your personal statement as a young woman respectfully choosing her own way, your amazing talent as an artist and designer. You look beautiful in it... your wedding looked like amazing fun, your husband was so cute in his wedding trousers. So glad to see you again and thank you to Grandma for inspiring and enabling you in your craft. You are both lovely in appearance and heart.

    Wonderful project! I love this sort of soft green/blue, it looks good on everyone. A friend crocheted her wedding dress (1978!) all semester. Full length, and unfortunately it grew in length, so she had to remove about a month's worth of work. But beautiful, as is yours.

    Hi Athena! Your dress is INCREDIBLE, what a masterpiece that you got to wear for your wedding and I can't believe you finished it in only 6 weeks! Such a bonus it's still so wearable in everyday life! Also, I'm from Harbin too! Ahhh the clip of you knitting by 松花江 and seeing you write it out as "江沿儿“ is just 🥹. My grandparents used to live within walking distance of the river and I remember walking along the river with my them after dinner every day when I was a child as part of their daily exercise. It's so sweet that your grandma made a cameo in your video!

    • @SeedlingStitch

Congratulations on finishing your dress, but most of all congratulations for getting married.

      Thank you! Nainai is very shy on camera. She kept saying “don’t put this footage in your show! They will unfollow you after seeing this old lady talking!” I had to reassure her many times that her talk would only attract more subscribers for me. I’ll show her all your nice comments and encouragements to see if I can change her mind!

    Don’t you have to worry about dye lot? I was a knitter and I never learned how to crochet but I love the pattern but I never mastered the art of crochet, I think it’s harder than knitting. But your dress design is so cute! Make sure you keep it in case you have a daughter who wants to wear it in the future. Wow it’s going to be hard to do the skirt. That is a tremendous amount of work. I wish you would have started sooner! You are making me nervous trying to get this much done!

      @@style_icon997 I can’t either but I really do appreciate the artistic talents of all Asian people. Back after I had only been married a few years and in the yard around our small first house I spent a lot of time trying to create a Japanese garden. I planted many of the recommended types of plants. I loved my Japanese Maple, my Mimosa tree, my wisteria, my Bonsai trimmed evergreens, my Ajuga ground cover, and my Chrysanthemums. I had a hidden strawberry bed and my little baby girl loved to go pick the fresh strawberries in her own back yard and bring them in to wash and eat. I hope you have a happy marriage and a happy life and many happy memories. I was married 43 years and my husband died from cancer at only 65 years old and I was only 58 when he died and I am now 78. Thank goodness I have my daughter and granddaughter who live with me because I have a nice piece of country ground and house with a horse in the back yard and a poodle and cat. So we are very happy. My son married his first wife who didn’t want any connection to families and she was a narcissist who eventually started abusing him so they divorced and he is now on wife number 2 and after 25 years on the first marriage she really changed the family ties because he believed her lies about us and that hurts because he should have known his mother and sister weren’t capable of the things she told him we did.
