I imagine it's actually pretty hard to fit clothes on to yourself rather than fitting them on other people, I'd probably end up like a human pin cushion if I tried! I think it's a really cute idea to have yourself and your husband in matching patterns for Christmas day, although I have seen them making shirts on Sewing Bee and it feels a bit mind boggling. Also many thanks for the tip on how to open advent windows without struggling, I actually think people enjoy watching me struggle on my channel, I used to always show myself unboxing dolls but stopped including the actual unboxing footage because it made the videos super long and a few subscribers said they missed watching me struggle with all the packaging 😂

The champagne sparkly dress looks so festive, just try and not get curry down it. The black dress is gorgeous but a bit more dressy so maybe save it for something more formal. Buff Ken looks great in his apron and it's great that he can hold the frying pan too! Congrats on getting more pink in your yarn calendar too.

Another fun video! So many nice items. Love the sweaters also, the pjs were very nice and well made! Wow! If you make your husband a shirt to match your dress that is going to be super cute.., especially for Christmas Day. Awww 🎄👏🏽🎄👏🏽🎄🗓️🎁

I love Rainy Day Parade. You have dressed her so adorable. I love the red gingham with the denim. She is precious. Thank you for sharing her with us again. Love her red shoes too! BTW I have heard about "Hot Frosty" from my daughter. I laughed out loud as she explained about the fellow in the movie. You youngsters are so funny. Good luck with the shirt pattern. I know you will turn out another perfect piece. 😊☃⛄

Did you know that that plaid is called “Black Watch plaid”! Yes! It’s so niiice! Making men’s shirts isn’t difficult, I’ve made many for my husband and brothers and son! Lots of Hawaiian shirts too! I can’t wait to see them!

BeBe sure to check the yardage requirements on the shirt pattern for your husband before ordering fabric. I just finished making a shirt for my son, who is quite tall, and I was shocked at how much fabric I needed. I am average height for a woman, and my son’s shirt front pattern piece (after altering for his height) came to my knees! I’d purchased a little extra to accommodate his height, and I am so glad I did. I don’t know what height the McCall’s patterns are drafted for, but Burda drafts for a man who is 5’11”. The length was just a bit of a shock since I am used to sewing for myself. I hope your dress comes out just the way you are envisioning it.

Gosh that is such a large amount of fabric for sleeves. Could you make a sleeve toile out of some cheaper fabric, or even an old sheet, and see what it’s like? Poor Jack, hope he’s feeling better. ❤

🔥❄️⛄️😛🤭🤣

Hi Claire , like you my advent was very late and I was getting worried especially as I paid for it in January. I was so excited as I thought being Barbie it would be pink themed so I am very disappointed as not for me and I bought the project bag and I hate sparkles so a costly mistake . Will look to sell it in the New Year xxx Just love your vlogs Thank you

Our bug craft store in the US is Hobby Lobby

I luv the Ken in his apron. Looks like he's ready for business in the kitchen.😊

Oh Claire I can’t wait to see your dress. I love the green and navy tartan. I think you might be right about the sleeves as you are so slim. More pink, how fabulous. The champagne dress is gorgeous. ❤

Great vlog as always. Just love your dolls love Ken tonight. Your dresses are gorgeous and your husband is so nice to buy them for you ❤❤

The black dress is gorgeous and I love extra long sleeves. The champagne dress is very cute and perfect for that occasion. Your husband's mini me looks great with his new apron and pan 🥰🎄🤗

Oh my goodness! Definitely the champagne dress it’s gorgeous! Got to have sparkles at Christmas ☺️

Pink yarn - AT LAST! The yarns you've had so far are lovely, even if they haven't been pink, and it's nice that they are not just flat colours. Would be interesting to see how they knit. As I only really knit for dolls I would imagine this advent calendar would provide me with enough wool to last me a whole year. Many thanks for the mention too 🥰

Hi Claire, I was in York the other day and came across a doll shop called Mary Shortle, the shop was closed but I looked in and i'm 100% sure she had Blythe dolls. I looked on her web site and again i' think I saw Blythe I obviously thought of you

Love that colour Champagne on you Claire x

Hi Claire, I’m watching on my TV so hoping I’m commenting on the right episode 😅 I enjoy all your content, dolls or knitting or whatever you do it doesn’t matter , I’m sure lots of your other viewers do too ❤ Keep being you 😊 Koala Bear coffee 😂😂 I’m really enjoying watching you open your Barbie advent, they are gorgeous colours 💕 xx

My Alexa answered you and it's 5.32pm 😆

such cute dungarees, some more wonderful items 🥰🥰

Love the fabric and yarn.. The stockings are amazing 🥰🥰❤❤

Those Christmas dresses have been a great success! I love the fun Sewing Street fabric and I bet you'll make a really fun dolly outfit with it. So happy that I also have that Arne & Carlos doll book 🥰🎄🤗

Pink yarn at last! 🩷👏 Eek! I didn't notice the spider because I was busy cutting out a Barbie pattern. I'll have to go back and look 😄. I'm a big fan of March Payne's channel 🥰🎄🤗

Claire I watch you because I like everything you do, sewing,crafts, dolls, family, you have a great channel, and all you do is interesting to me! Thankyou for your talents and sharing them with all of us!

The look on your son's face, reminded me of my son at that age. Love your chickens Claire.xxxx

Good morning to those precious chickens. I enjoy your vlogmas Claire. I am always happy to see all of your dolls and crafts at the same time. Everything is happy and festive at your house. Thanks for sharing your activities with us. 😊🎅

I love seeing your dolls and crafts

The return of Rafe - how wonderful. I did enjoy his antics in previous videos. Hope Holly is ok soon - they keep us on our toes our furry pals. Lovely yarn again, Claire. Haven't had a yarn advent for a few years, but seeing yours makes me think I will do one next year. I have three advents this year, the Sewing Street one, Natasha Makes advent and the Missouri Star Quilting Company one (that one was expensive but I am thrilled with it). However, none of them come close to the Friends one your husband had a few years ago - that was so funny 😊. See you tomorrow

What a fun time I had with you today you brightened it up😊 lovely seeing your youngest boy well man he has gotten so tall. Hope your little dog is feeling better 👋🏻 a wave back from 🇨🇦

The red pixie hat looks so good on Coquette Lumiere, especially with that outfit that you'd made her, you're definitely going to have to make her one now. Yay - we got some PINK in the yarn calendar, despite the reference to coffee. Claire, I have no idea how you have such a grown up son!

The joke was very appropriate for you claire with you eating your mince pies🤣

Maybe as the month goes on the yarn colours will get more into the pinks, it does feel like they're going in the right direction. Love your Barbie jumper btw. Looking forward to seeing what you get in the swap too.

The yarn today looked really pretty, I sometimes have problems with blues and purples as some shades of them can look very similar to me. Maybe I should have a go at creating my own Barbie/dolly advent for next Christmas as at least you're getting whole outfits in yours every day. Hopefully your rings will turn up again soon, you'll probably end up finding them once you've stopped looking.

Loved seeing the chickens again. Hopefully they were okay after Storm Darragh? We got hit here in Ireland too, although it only seems fair as it was an Irish named storm. Your Barbie looked very Mariah Carey/Mean Girls today in her Mrs Santa outfit.

Hi Claire! I’m new to your channel, I had to watch as Jeanette mentioned you 🤭 I’m a Clare, no i, I tell you I’m hooked on your vlog, not in a stalky way🤣. I thought who is this woman that likes doll! But having watched I have more respect for what you do , but I’m curious, why dolls,,if that’s not to rude a question. Loving your fabric advents! Also the Barbie one! My fibre fox advent is purple/ pink fade. My husband has the swizzles advent. I was going to go to the Birmingham wool show, only up the m40 from me, but family 🫣 anyway look forward to watching tomorrow. Sorry for the long winded comment ☺️

I wonder if the purple cape fits Blythe? There are lots of people that do tons of different crafts including me. Turns out most of us that do so many different things have adhd, including me. Lol

That Barbie rocks! Purple is my favourite colour and I’m loving all the yarn. The fabric today really is fun indeed. I think it would be perfect for dolls. X

Você é muito especial, gosto das coisas que você faz, quem sabe um dia encontro uma esposa assim... Feliz natal para você e a família toda.🎉❤

Can you do a video on all your blythes claire please , fake and authentic 💗love the pixie hat 👏🏻 lovely been introduced to your son .

How sad you have lost your rings claire, love your jumper your talent is endless 🫶

So glad you got some pink yarn looking forward to seeing how you get on with your dyeing kit Ravioli dinner looked yummy 🥰

Yikes! I went back and watched that portion ith the spider!!! I totally missed it yesterday too!

Claire, you are so funny. I went back and looked at day 9 of Vlogmas. The spider was indeed, hanging in her hair and yes, your hand was right on top of it. I probably would have screamed out loud if I had been you. That was a great laugh for me today. I am glad he did not fall off on you. I am excited to see what you make next year with all of your beautiful yarns and fabrics and threads. Your Advent calendars are great ones. 😊

OMG pink yarn! It’s a Christmas miracle 😂. It’s Aurifil thread alright, top quality. You’re getting quite the collection of dresses for Barbie. I know they’re only printed, but they’re very pretty. ❤

Yay you’ve got pink yarn finally 🎉🎉🎉🎉 xxx

What a lovely gift for your swap 🎁

My beautiful Grandson love him so much and very proud 💙

Lovely to meet your son Claire. Really lovely yarn in your Calendar I do hope you get plenty of pink. x

Where I live there’s no Aldi, but a few hours away there is one and I go as often as I can! The yarn you’re getting is so pretty, I’d make a couple pairs of socks! Pretty!! I am enjoying you Volgma’s… look forward to your everyday! Merry Christmas 🩷♥️ The Barbie dress and hat is adorable!
