    I think you look fantastic so don't beat yourself up about things. I really enjoy watching your reviews. and having only discovered them recently, am making my way through them all on youtube. My list of patterns which I can't find anywhere is growing dramatically.🤣
    Brad, is extra funny and your dog is adorable. Being in Australia, I can only sympathise about the cold in Virginia but where I live in winter we do get down to around minus 7 celsius occasionally which is about 19 fahrenheit I think. Your husky would love the snow. I met some people while I was out walking my dog recently (she's a miniature Aussiedoodle which is an Australian Shepherd crossed with a miniature poodle) and we were talking about your dog and they were commenting on the huskies in the area here whose owners have a sled track for them (the sleds are on wheels since we don't get snow here) so the dogs can get lots of exercise. Apparently they just love it.
    I've just recently started sewing again after a break of about 5 years. I always had the same problems about instructions on some of the big 5 patterns companies but I have discovered Pattern Emporium pdf patterns and I'm a bit hooked. The instructions on these patterns togehter with the online tutorials are mind blowing and the patterns so precise. And no, I don't have any involvement with the two young women who design and market them. Just impressed with their ingenuity.
    I'm off to look at some of your other videos. I hope not to run out soon as I will need to start all over.😍

    Hi Vivmom! I am so glad to see you back. I love your corduroy dress. Brad's jacket is so nice too! It cracked me up when he had on five layers. Great job on all your makes. Can't wait to see what you make from the two new fabrics.

      Hi Viv! Nice to see you again! I found your channel a while ago and I have no idea what happened, but I didn't see any videos from you, but I see you now.😅😅😅 I'm taking the time to organize what I have in my sewing room. It is a little overstoft and there are things there I completely forgot about, so I am getting organized for the month of January.❤

    So glad you’re back. Love all the makes but what I love most is how you can make something, hate it, hate making it and yet it looks FABULOUS. I love the cotton fabric at the end. I’m a quilter and those two pieces in a quilt would be amazing. Can’t wait to see what garment you make. So tell the family they are mistaken. They do go together.❤❤

So nice of your hubby showing his new clothes off. 😊 I have the turtle neck top pattern and I've made it too and I think it's the greatest ever!

    Yay, Viv is back. The pair of you are hilarious. @11:22, ooh I like that and wouldn't have to make the necessary short waist adjustment. The fit on you is great and I don't blame you for nixing the 14 buttons. Got to agree with on New Look 6751. Love Simplicity 9226 on you. There is far too much of me for those body skimming styles. 😂😂😂 'You are not allowed to put them together.' Challenge accepted. 😂😂😂

It's so easy to make children's garments- heirloom , smocked, etc. Maybe if I jeep watching you, I will make something for me!? Good to see you again. It was my first time meeting Brad. You are an adorable couple.😊

Running a super-close second is the last dress you showed us. It’s gorgeous and you wear it so well! Just beautiful! Everything you make is so creatively executed, even the dress with the inset - the way you cut the fabric to take such beautiful advantage of the pattern of the fabric - I’m always impressed. I can’t wait to see what you do with those two new fabrics!

    So glad to see you again! That corduroy dress is a a classic look and very nice. I liked the last set you had on, too. Maybe they say to put in a zipper for larger sizes. I know when I weighed a lot more than I do now, it would sometimes be a struggle to get on tops. Brad is such a great sport and model. And your little Zinnia is a sweetie.

Paisley always speaks to me and the colors of this fabric are so rich and gorgeous! Viv, you should be the model on the patterns! You look great! Love both with the boots.
    As far as getting fat-really? I ate an entire pint of ice cream as I watched your's and Joy's videos!! All good, I'm not sewing any pants! Thanks for the fashion show, as always. Looking forward to a year of them!

    I've missed you but I knew with having a dog now your sewing could suffer. My dog wants my full attention at almost 16 yrs old. But I did manage to cut out pattern pieces for a top and skirt with the goal of getting them sewn before Feb!
    I love your humor and honesty when you show the garments that were challenging to make. I have made every mistake possible too. Sewing is like a recipe, you can fix anything until you can't. 😂
