Hi Viv, Congrats on Fabric Mart's sponsorship. It was so sweet & kind for the person to give you that gift card!!!!! I think some people go on youtube for one purpose, to complain about something! People have their motives & they want what they want & when they don't get it they just have to say something heartless!! She could have chosen to quietly go away. Anyway Viv, the rest of us know you & your channel are not pointless at all, we share what we all enjoy........sewing & everything that goes with it. Nothing is pointless if we connect, share & give love while we are doing that. This is why we are ALIVE! Anyway, I will stop going on with that. Viv, I loved all your fabrics. Just Beautiful! Take care & God Bless.
A great big Thank you for the fabric show. I love reveling in others purchases of fabric and patterns. So, what a dumb question and why would it even be asked. Why do most of us do what we do? Because we want to and I am so glad that you want to share with us your joy of sewing. Once upon a time I sewed everything my daughter and I wore except for jeans, sweaters and coats. Her kindergarten teacher commented that she hadn't seen her wear the same garment in a months time. She's 42 now and I taught her to sew but she doesn't sew anymore. I still sew but it is mostly for others doing alterations and quilting. Congratulations on the good fortune of Fabric Mart and the gift card. Please don't take to heart the ugly comments and please continue to share with us your talent for sewing.
Hi, Viv, what a great time you must have had at Fabric Mart! I’m really looking forward to seeing your creations. Congratulations on your collaboration! What a lovely surprise for you, as well as the gift voucher - what a day! Thank you as always for your constant inspiration and encouragement. You are always a joy to watch. Kind regards from Penny in Liverpool 🇬🇧😊💕
Hi Viv, well done on your fabric Mart sponsorship you so deserve it, plus it was so sweet of the person to arrange a gift card for you too 💖 your fabric haul was great as always, as are you take care 🤗🏴 Ange x
Hi Viv, what an awesome fabric haul. You really did have a great trip, so exciting. Beautiful fabrics. I can't wait to see what you make with your gorgeous fabrics and a huge congratulations on your collaboration with Fabric Mart. I don't think the person that made the comment could have watched many of your videos. Have a great week. Val🇨🇦🇬🇧❤️
Hi Viv, just catching up with your videos... there is always one isn't there, but you know that thousands of us love you Viv and we all adore what you do on your channel...you bring us happiness 😁💖. Congratulations with Fabric Mart and so well deserved 👌. Gorgeous fabrics as usual.. happy sewing ✂😁😘
The point is fun! You are a joy to watch and you always make me smile and sometimes laugh out loud. Then there is sewing. Yep, all things sewing. Fabric, patterns, tips, completed projects, and the life that we live that has absolutely nothing to do with sewing. Wow, all that in 1 channel. Love your channel and keep up the good work.
Listen Viv I don't know what this comment about your channel or videos being pointless means, but to me it means inspiration, I live in Puerto Rico a small island in the Caribbean where people are warm, loving and happy go lucky type, since hurricane Maria left us hopeless and sad I began sewing clothes for my grandaughter without any knowledge about sewing, and looking for ideas I found your channel. Oh my! It sucked me in! I started watching your videos and waiting for new ones to show, I feel inspired, you make me laugh like if I were with a friend in my livingroom, sometimes I find myself talking back to the phone ( that's where I watch your videos, mostly) so going back to the "pointless" thing, there you go, that's the point🤭, you don't have to sew in every video to inspire, just by watching you show patterns and sewn garments is more than enough, keep it up, you rock! My best wishes on your new entrepreneurship!!! (sorry Engligh is my second language)😊
Oh, Vivmom, your channel for me and I am 100% sure for all of your followers has been an inspiration. AND THAT IS AN AWESOME POINT! You are so honest and down to earth. You are not pretentious! You are caring and kind. You are so full of joy. AND YOU LOVE TO SEW AND YOU SHARE THAT WITH US. That inspires me/us. Just keep doing what you do! Congratulations on your Fabric Mart relationship! They have realized your potential! You are blessed because you have blessed me/us with your pure love of sewing and your ability to be my/our friend. God bless you, my friend. PS. I am working on my topper. Maybe only one or maybe 2. My school teacher daughter wants a long, sleeveless duster. We will see if I can pull off 2!❤👍
Yay!!! I hadn’t heard of Fabric Mart before I found your channel. I have bought from them 3 times now. I’ve recently talked to them on the phone about an order and whoever I talked to was so very nice. I was very impressed with their customer service. The race is on when you present your new makes with their fabrics. You will sell it out Viv. They picked the right person to represent them. I can’t wait.!!!
I must admit that lately I’ve been watching your videos & a few others instead of sewing but I love fabric mart I’ve never been disappointed with anything I bought I’ve been a seamstress for over 30 years I’ve just been slack lately but watching you has been encouraging to me if someone says you don’t sew they haven’t watched very many of your videos I also do embroidery and trying to learn vinyl I watch videos on all of them I think I have too many hobbies but don’t let anyone discourage you because you are an encouragement to lots of us I work full time but am a widow for 7 years I have a great man in my life but he’s gone a lot so TH-cam & crafting are my sanctuary most of the time so keep on keeping on love your videos❤️❤️
Oh my I would watch an hour long video of your fabric/patterns, so never ever worry about the length of your videos. You are receiving well deserved blessings for being who you are and for kindly sharing it with us. As to rude commenter, I prefer to think it was merely said out of ignorance, since she obviously has not seen the plethora of sewing/modeling videos you have generously posted.
I love your channel almost as much as I love sewing!! Ignore the ugly comments!! I love your fabric haul! You bring a smile to my face so there.... your channel has purpose!! Like sewing it make us happy!! ❤️👍🏻😊 also, congrats on the sponsor!! That’s amazing and you deserve it!!
I watch you because you are ALWAYS able to lift my mood, even when you’re a little down in the dumps! You have a phenomenal outlook on life and remind me that things could be worse! The fact that you sew just adds to the pot!! You and Joy are like my neighbors Dow the street. Keep sewing and Congratulations 🎉 🎊
And about that dumb comment... The point is...I used to go to a fabric store and gaze at the books..it relaxed me...my creative juices flowed. I dont know your background, but you would have made a great TV personality. You are beautiful, joyful, enthusiastic and you remind me of when my daughter (26 now) would go to the Disney store and try on the princess outfits, and twirl around and be so happy. You are like that when you try on your creations and show the patterns, The only good thing that comes out of these complainers..is that you get more comments supporting you!! (and comments matter on youtube lol!!!)
I am so happy for you! Congratulations! Had to laugh when you said, “What IS the point?” I believe the point is; you are like our friend who the majority of us who watch relate to for our love of fabric, patterns and sewing! (And the kitties, too!). To us you are like the friend we sit down with over a cup of coffee or tea or the next door neighbor we pop over to visit and see what is on the sewing table next! I love your down to earth manner and humor! Fabric Mart made the right choice! I kinda envy you now! Lol. Keep up the awesome channel and let us know when those great pattern sales are on for Hobby Lobby!
Hahahahaha!! What’s the point to your channel? HILARIOUS!! Give her my number... I’ll do the explaining! 😂😂 Better yet, even my husband can explain it! He even asks quite often, “How’s your friend down in Virginia doing?” That personal impact, sweetie! SERIOUSLY! If 18,000+ folks are loving what you’re doing, you are certainly doing something right, and you know that, of course. What’s happening in your lives is a testament to your faithfulness, and when growth happens there are sometimes growing pains, right? When I watch your videos and my husband hears them, he’ll be laughing from the other room, even! He gets such a big kick out of listening. Now, if he hears your voice he will come into the room and watch. BTW, he was happy for you and your fabulous trip to Fabric Mart! It’s amazing! I love the way God sends us encouragement during trying times, and refreshes us. We ALWAYS need it.😄 And look! NOW you’re even giving encouraging spiritual words to your audience! 🤩 Back to sewing... The fabric was exciting and the outfits (which we now find out you aren’t actually sewing, they are just figments of our imaginations) are going to be beautiful too! ☺️ I just CANNOT wait to see your new wardrobe with those fabrics! You’re moving into a whole new gig with sponsorship from FM! Congratulations! RIDE THE WAVE, BABY! 🌊 Enjoy the highs!😎 Gotta love that Zig! Senior moment... can’t remember black kitty’s name...😬😬😬 Have a great week as we are off traveling to another round of grandchildren activities! Some day I’ll get back to sewing! But hey, fabric shopping, talking, and thinking about sewing are my favorite pastimes... HEY! I even watch a TH-cam channel for that!🤣😂🤣 Blessings!💐
Here here! Exactly! I second it! Spot on! Yes! And sew on! Well said, beautifully shared and do you have a channel? Seems like you should. Can't tell you how lucky I am to consider myself a part of this sewing circle. It doesn't make sense that anyone complains about it. Some aren't happy to merely move on without a trace. 🤷🏻♀️
Awesome video, loved the fabric haul and the caftan. The Lord has seen you're heart my dear sweet lady and has poured His favor out on you and you're husband. Just keep in mind hurting people hurt others, they don't need a reason to spew their venom, all we can do is pray for them. We Love you, and please know that All the makes you have shown on your videos are beautiful. You are Keeping me and other sewers entertained and educated keep the video's coming. Congratulations on you're and you're husband's new endeavors.
You are a delight to watch. Thank you for sharing your sewing with us. I watch you all the time but rarely comment on any TH-cam videos, but just wanted to say you are a ray of sunshine in your viewers lives! Best wishes! 🌷
Fabulous! Great opportunity! Love seeing all the fabric and your caftan with those shoes! That chocolate brown stretch velvet is lovely can't wait to see what you'll make. The pinstripes can be used in so many styles.. The cream and black too. 🐱🐈💖 your cats!
Love your channel.I As I said before-you are joy itself. Your channel has called us sewers to attention and we know that sewing and needlework are a beautiful thing. Thank you for being our sewing mentor.
Hi Vivmom - I love your channel. I'm a newbie & learn so much about different fabrics, patterns and ideas. I enjoy your fashion shows too. Keep up the good work 👏🏾
Congrats🎉 Viv! I’m so excited for you! I’m a fan of FabricMart Mail orders. They respond immediately to any problems you may have with the shipped orders and resolve the issues ASAP. Thank you FabricMart for your great customer service!!💯
🎊 Woo Hoo 🎊 Yabadabadoo I’m so excited for you‼️❤️ You truly are the absolutely perfect person for Fabric Mart to sponsor!!! You know your fabrics so well & you can vision what a garment will look like from the pattern and fabric before you even cut it out. That’s an awesome talent that not a lot of people have. Those folks are going to love working with you so much. You got some amazing fabrics. The last two are my favorites. I love all of them but those are so cheerful and fun! They will bring a smile to your face each time you wear them. Happy Happy Happy Such a wonderful and special treat for someone to leave you a gift card. Evidently, the person that left you the comment, doesn’t watch your channel. Maybe you should respond with a link to a video of your monthly makes!!! The one where you made a lot of garments in that month. Lol I am so truly happy for you and your new sponsorship. It’s been a tough year for you and Brad. This came at the perfect time. God does things in His time. He is good all the time - even through the hard times. So proud of you Viv. You will have a blast on your new adventure. Big Big Hugs!!!🤗☀️🦜🐱🦋💕
Such adorable cat! I told you something great is going to happen for you! I knew from the first time I saw you on here that you were going to go far! You haven't seen anything yet! Class and genuine charm! Thanks Vivmom❣️ Beautiful fabric...and the dress too!
Congratulations on the sponsorship. The point is you bring joy to others who have a common interest. I love, love your fabric haul. It made me think of what I would like to sew with it. Can't wait to see what outfits you make with all of it.
I wanted to tell you I enjoy your channel so much and I am always amazed at all your makes! I also wanted to tell you that my husband will notify me of your videos and put them on for us BOTH to watch. 😁 He sees your happiness and it has made him see why I am so happy when I sew (even when it doesn't work out 😉) thank you! Keep on sharing and sewing and take care of yourself. 💖
They could not pick a better person to sponsor. You are delightful and we all love you. I love all the fabric and can't wait to see what you sew. Keep that beautiful smile and great attitude. Love your videos.
People don't understand the joy of "pointless" and the joy of connecting and communicating about what we love. It is a great channel and keep doing YOU!
I really appreciate you taking the time to share your fabric finds and your sewing projects. Pay no attention to the person who said there’s no point to your channel. Because those of us who love sewing get it. Keep up the good job. Congratulations on your new venture with fabric mart
So happy for you Viv. I saw Thursdays vid before this one. A very big CONGRATULATIONS to you on the Fabricmart partnership. Your passion for sewing and sharing has been rewarded. You will do really well in this role. I will finish watching this vid after work, otherwise I will be late. Have an awesome day/night. 🥂🤸♀️🌹🌼🌸🌸❤😘 xox
What a marvelous day!!!! Great fabric! Congratulations on being a sponsor! !!!!!God always provides! So wonderful! I can't think of a sweeter person to get that honor! The point is caring & loving & creativity & comradery & unity of heart! All great points!
Great haul! I love your fabric. Yes you do have a point to your channel. You bring laughter, joy, and most of a LL l support for us sewer who watch you. Whoever wrote that comment has not seen your channel, may not even be a sewer, definitely doesn't understand any of us. Love you and your channel. Like you said we really do have other people who understand our love of fabric, patterns, and all things sewing. Hugs
I love your excitement! It’s contagious! 😍 so excited for you and your new venture with Fabric Mart! How wonderful!!! These fabrics are just beautiful! Can hardly wait to see what you make! Must run - but just wish I could make a trip to Fabric Mart with you! That place must be so thrilling! I would have difficulty culling down to a manageable haul!
The point is to show people a real look at sewing! None of these Instagram models who only sew successful garments and fit into a straight pattern size 8! I love coming to your channel because you inspire me! Not only to sew, but to keep my head up on hard days. You're so bright and cheerful and it reminds me to try and have the same attitude! And I love seeing your sewing mistakes as well as the beautiful garments that go according to plan. It's easy to beat yourself up when you sew a fail, but I love that you see those times as an opportunity to learn and improve. And in turn, that helps us as the viewers to learn and improve too! Long story short ( 😂😉 ) I love your channel and it's the first place I go on TH-cam. I'm a brand new content creator here on TH-cam and I hope one day I make content half as great and authentic as yours! 💖💖💖
Omg chelsey, this couldn’t be sweeter!! Thanks so much. I feel like such a rinky-dink youtuber, especially when I see the slick software and cool editing people have. But my phone is adequate and I wouldn’t trade places with anyone because I adore my subscribers!!😄You’ve given me a real shot in the arm and I think I just squared my shoulders a bit more, feeling more confident! Thanks again!! I’m so happy you’re here.💕
Love love love you!!!! I am so glad I am not the only person that gets so excited about fabric and sewing😁 I am happy for your new collaboration with Fabricmart. What a great personal validation for your channel!! Every time you post, if feels like visiting with a friend😁 We definitely need more of your joy and kindness😍😍😍
I love your channel and I am so excited for you and your new sponser with Fabric Mart. And I'm so excited someone gave you a gift card to shop more. And I appreciate the way you let us enjoy your little joys. It makes me happy 😊. So please don't change. Plenty of us want your channel to stay like it is ,,, spontaneous. You do a great job.
You are absolutely correct about everyone that works at Fabric Mart. They are just wonderful. I'm so happy they chose you for their sponsor. I can't wait to see what you make with their fabric. 😊
Vivmom, I am so happy for you! You are delightful and it is wonderful for all of us (your subbies) that you have chosen to share your sewing and your life with us. Keep sewing and we will keep watching.
You are very fun to watch and I like the fact that you sew for the men in your life too..Brad always seems happy with his new outfit and the two of you have such a sweet bond. Many times you really get the perfect pick of pattern and fabric. You have helped me get through this difficult year, so thank you. Sewing sister!
Congratulations your passion for your fabric & sewing shines through & so excited to hear about your Fabric Mart news. Don't you change a thing on how you speak or act that's why we love you. My husband is like Brad he enjoys going with me on my little trips too.
I get such a kick out of watching your 'show'. You always put a smile on my face! You are so real, so talented and you have inspired me and others to sew again! (Or at least think about sewing again!) Fabric Mart was smart to sponsor you. Everyone who watches your videos is just dying to go there!
I have to tell you that your channel is the best channel I watch whenever you are on. You are a wonderful inspiration to us sewers who used to love sewing years ago and now do other crafty stuff, just to keep creating. But, thanks to you I want to sew again. I have to figure out my measurements and just get cutting. I wish we had your fabric mart close by so I can see and feel fabrics before purchasing. We only have Jo Ann’s Fabrics here and it seems all they sell are flannel, fleeces and cottons. You are making a difference to many people who need a creative hobby and get inspiration by watching you turn patterns and fabrics into beautiful garments to wear. So happy for your new adventure with fabric mart. Congratulations and please, keeping sewing🤗
Hello Viv, I love watching you. I like your style and your choice of fabrics I have bought some of the fabrics and pattern's because of you. Especially FABRIC MART. I feel like you are an old friend.
HAHAHAHAHA “isn’t everything we do pointless?!” My wife and I laughed so hard! You are so right! Sewing has brought me so many things to aspire and look forward to, I am 24 and have yet to make any sewing pals. So this community has helped me tremendously. It’s amazing to hear about your partnership with Fabric Mart. It’s incredible to see how things can turn so quickly..
Viv, you and Fabric Mart are perfect together...congratulations girl!, woot woot and more! Your excitement inspires me to sew again and take a trip from NC to Fabric Mart!!
Vivmom! Congrats on the new sponsor and thank you for your Chanel !! It's because of your Chanel that I started sewing again, and I LOVE IT❣❣❣ I wish we had a fabric mart in Canada cause I would be swimming in fabric! "Come on......really? 1.99 a yard!! " love all the fabric you got!❣❣❣👏👏🎉🎉🍷🍷👍🏻👍🏻LETS GET SEWING!
You’re the best. You and Joy gave me the confidence to start making garments. I am so glad you are here for me and everyone else. Don’t let the negative people get to you, unfortunately for them they don’t get it. If they would watch a few more videos, they would be hooked like the rest of us. God bless you and Brad on the future business venture and congrats on fabric mart sponsorship.
So happy for you! You deserve these beautiful surprises. I stopped sewing when my daughters became teenagers. Then I started quilting 11 years ago. Now, because of you, I started sewing for myself and I love it! In Australia we don’t have the prices that you have in USA and we can’t afford going on a shopping spree like this one but I love when you show the fabrics and I am learning so many things from you. Congratulations on the sponsorship and keep sewing!!! S
So happy for you Viv You deserve it! So enjoy your video's all the time Watching you made me revisit my sewing machine after 10years break & l LOVE IT...THANK YOU👌🤗⚘
Elizabeth may I add a note? Viv's comment "Sewing is a friend that waits for you" gave me the courage/shove to get me sewing again after 6 years! I even got a topper done for the joyviv challenge. Hope there is one there from you. Sewing is my sanity!! Yay Fabric Mart!
Responding to "what's the point?" is difficult if you don't love fabric or the act of sewing. I have very little money to live on, so generally buy fabric when I can at my favorite thrift store, or cut up old garments to make new things. When I create something new I immediately have to email every one of my sewing friends - to try and pass on the joy of discovery, of creating, and of making something I think is beautiful from simple, often re-cycled materials. I enjoy your videos because you express the same love of craft that I feel, and help to support the community of people who love to create things with their hands. There's no other pleasure quite like it - thanks for passing on your joy and reminding us all of why we do this.
Congratulations Viv! That is absolutely wonderful! Like I told you several months or so ago. My granddaughter who is 5 loves to sit with me through your videos. She doesn't do that with everything, lol You deserve all that is being sent as blessings to you! Caio!
Congratulations on your joint venture with Fabric Mart! So glad you had a great time and I love all of the fabrics you bought. For all the happiness, laughter and sewing help you bring to all of us you and Brad need to enjoy all the wonderful things coming to both of you! Both of your new ventures are going to be extremely successful!! We love you💞
Ooo Vivmom ! I love you for who you are and what you do ! I love all your ramblings about fabrics, your experiences at the fabric stores or even about your trips/family (and cats too😍). So just ignore that 'what is the point of...' comment , such a ridiculous person , obviously that person has not been watching you vlogs. Gosh! I really envy you with your showers of beautiful fabrics and lovely friends at fabric mart. How I wish I could fly all the way from Singapore and go to fabric mart and mention your name 'Vivmom sent me here!' LOL .. well who knows , maybe one fine day . And CONGRATS for the new venture with fabric mart! I feel excited for you too! Looking forward to your next vlog 😘😍
Congrats Viv on your sponsorship!. I am glad for all things positive going your way! Love the anonymous gift giver! what a special gesture. Nice fabrics too! Thanks for your videos!
Viv, I'm so excited for you! Can't wait to see what fabric you will showcase! What great sewing encouragement you are for us! I've even gotten out my machine again! I love to see the fabrics and patterns! I love that you model your makes for us. That is awesome! Your cheerful smile brightens my day! Thanks! Hugs!
Congratulations Viv!!! Fabric Mart is fortunate to have you show their fabrics on TH-cam! I am not surprised. You are very easy to listen to and your description of the fabric is very helpful, especially the fabric content, stretch and showing a single layer against the light. Also, your camera shows the fabric grain in very good detail. I would like to know the cleaning instructions for the fabric and, if possible, could the sound be increased. I can hear if both the computer and the TH-cam site are turned up all the way. Again, congratulations!! I am sure you will sell lots of fabric for Fabric Mart!!!
Fabric Mart knows a good representative when they see her😘. Congratulations Viv.... I’m so very happy for you🥰🥰!! I absolutely love all your fabrics! You are such a sweetie and a dear heart💜! I wish you only the best today and always.
Your channel is NOT pointless. How very fun this is and how inspiring you are to those of us who love to sew, but don’t know where to start! Thank you!
I love to sew🤣. I love to collect (and actually sew them) patterns & Oh My Goodness! My fabric collection is tremendous! Viv mom, you are a wonderful friend & mentor to all of us who sew! Congratulations on your venture with Fabric Mart! I've ordered fabric from them & was very surprised & pleased with my haul! Thank you again. Always look forward to seeing your finished makes! You are loved from Tennessee... ggslove
Love your choice of fabrics! You have excellent taste! Love your videos, please keep making them. Fabric Mart chose a fabulous spokesperson! Congratulations!
Congratulations! Sounds like it was a very fortuitous trip! Love seeing all the fabrics you chose and can't wait to see what you make with them. Fabric Mart sounds like a very nice place to shop!
Congratulations Ms. Viv! Sponsorship with FabricMart is truly amazing! They picked a great person to work with! Also, your fabrics are amazing! I can’t wait to see what you do with the all!
Congratulations Viv! Enjoy your videos so much! Was a garment sewer many years ago when the kids were young, then became a quilter. Seeing your videos has encouraged me to begin sewing for myself again. God’s blessings to you!
Viv....before you, I knew nothing of Fabric Mart...now I have found sooo many great pieces to order online. It is so fun! So thank you very much!! We love your channel, so don't let the Debbie downer ruin your mood. You are wonderful, so please keep it up!!! 🤗
I have to tell you that every one of the fabrics you held up from your Fabric Mart haul was "so You". You picked such perfect fabrics. Great haul! Yes, because of you, I have been ordering from Fabric Mart. I have been very pleased with my purchases! I wish I was lucky enough to live close enough to visit their store. But, then again, I would probably bring half the store home with me, lol. Congrats on your news! Super thrilled for you. Keep those great inspiration vids coming. You always brighten my day and keep me heading into my sewing studio. PS. I love your little furry helpers.
HI Viv, I enjoy your channel. You inspire me to keep on sewing. Non of my friends sew so you and your friends on your channel are my sewing buddies. Keep sewing.
Viv, you NEVER disappoint, that is the point!! Love that you have a great sponsor. Looking forward to seeing how it works out. Fabric always makes me happy and I love looking at what you buy, it inspires me always.
Love it, thanks Vivmom. wish I had a Fabric Mart in Scotland. Keep the lovely, inspiring, happy, real, kind, colourful, genuine, videos coming, please. XXX
I am so happy for you. When you said you were going to fabric mart I just knew something great would happen. There a very smart company. They have got the best person to sponsor. It is just a great mix. I love you and can hardly wait to see you work your magic with them. You will do great.
Congrats on your new affiliation with Fabric Mart. I really love seeing what you make with each fabric and getting the opportunity to purchase the same fabric you used on some of your projects is going to be really fun.
I love your channel and I love watching your makes. Keep them coming. Nice to know I’m not the only one obsessed with sewing. It’s creative and rewarding, just like an artist painting a picture.
Sooo happy for you! What an awesome opportunity with Fabric Mart. Never let people steal your joy from you. I love seeing all the things you make. Keep doing what you are doing!!
Congratulations Viv. Lucky Fabricmart to be collaborating with you! And that caftan is very flattering on you - the V neck is lovely. Keep sewing and inspiring others.
WOW!!! What a coup Viv. You will be a great rep for them and I hope you have a long and happy partnership with them. I Bet Brad’s so proud of you! 🎉. ***You should put a purchase link on your channel so they see how many people visit the site because you sent them!***👍The fabric haul is fabulous. I’m still loving that silk and can’t wait to see what you make with it. 🌷
Talk about the favor of God.🥰 The person that made the comment must not have gone back and watched your fabric/modeling videos of what you have already made. Anywho, you are a joy to watch, and I look forward to your videos. Sewing is a passion for some of us, so its REALLY NICE to see others who share the same passion. Keep doing the videos, and God bless.🥰
Hello friend....I know I will speak for many when I say that your channel does have a huge purpose. By you being brave enough to expose yourself to the world and share your joy, smile, successes, failures, etc., you have managed to form a community of friends that gather often and spend time together around a passion and love called SEWING! I look forward to visiting with you via you tube and for the first time in a long, long time, I am pulling out my fabrics, organizing my notions, searching for my patterns and creating a space dedicated to sewing. It's all because of you! You did this! And I'm soooooooo sure I'm not the only one! This life can be challenging most of the time, (and many may be in a dark season or just coming out of one) so its important to have joy and creative time in the midst of that! It feeds your spirit and your soul! SO THERE! The people that don't get it..... this isn't for them. So from the rest of us (which are the only ones that matter 😁), we say, carry on sister! ❤
Aww Melissa, you worded this beautifully. Thank you!! I love the “feel” of this community, if that makes sense. Everyone is quick with a word of encouragement, a fix, an idea, curiosity, excitement and overall positive input! I could not ask for more. I have met the most enduring and endearing people here, strong women, creative souls nurturing a hurting and often cold world. Thanks for adding to the quality of this channel - it may not be flashy (good Lord, could my editing and camera work be any clunkier) but the people here make it solid. Solid gold!!😄👏👏
I can't imagine a more perfect Fabric Mart Ambassador than you, my dear! (Sorry my congrats are late coming; been busy evacuating from Hilton Head Island due to Dorian!) We had plenty of time to get our home in order and decide where we'd go (hubby and I always try to turn these hurricane trips into fun getaways.) Well, as he was making the final walk through the house before we left, I was busy in our car programming the navigation system for...you guessed it...Sinking Spring, PA!!! Oh my stars, I did not want to leave Fabric Mart and, if they had rooms to rent, I would have moved right in! But, back to my reason for writing. Congratulations on your appointment! Well deserved!❤️
I am so happy for you and your Fabric Mart sponsorship! It will be a win-win for everyone! I love Fabric Mart also and have been very pleasantly surprised by their wonderful customer service and how they’ve reached out to me if something I’d ordered had ended up going out of stock.
This is so exciting! Congratulations and best wishes for this great partnership! I can’t wait to go to the Fabric Mart site and see your picks. I love watching your videos, and I get so excited when I get notified of a new one! I hope I get to meet you someday!
Fabric Mart is now on my bucket list ! Thanks for sharing your fabric haul. I really enjoyed that. It helps me to know what to look for when I’m out and about. I now look at fabrics with a different eye. Thanks to you and others like you. God bless ❤️
A huge CONGRATULATIONS Viv❤. So well deserved because you and Brad are darlings. Lots of hugs and love from Canada. P.S. You look like a little kid in a Candy store. LOL😁
Hi Viv, Congrats on Fabric Mart's sponsorship. It was so sweet & kind for the person to give you that gift card!!!!! I think some people go on youtube for one purpose, to complain about something! People have their motives & they want what they want & when they don't get it they just have to say something heartless!! She could have chosen to quietly go away. Anyway Viv, the rest of us know you & your channel are not pointless at all, we share what we all enjoy........sewing & everything that goes with it. Nothing is pointless if we connect, share & give love while we are doing that. This is why we are ALIVE! Anyway, I will stop going on with that. Viv, I loved all your fabrics. Just Beautiful! Take care & God Bless.
A great big Thank you for the fabric show. I love reveling in others purchases of fabric and patterns. So, what a dumb question and why would it even be asked. Why do most of us do what we do? Because we want to and I am so glad that you want to share with us your joy of sewing. Once upon a time I sewed everything my daughter and I wore except for jeans, sweaters and coats. Her kindergarten teacher commented that she hadn't seen her wear the same garment in a months time. She's 42 now and I taught her to sew but she doesn't sew anymore. I still sew but it is mostly for others doing alterations and quilting. Congratulations on the good fortune of Fabric Mart and the gift card. Please don't take to heart the ugly comments and please continue to share with us your talent for sewing.
Hi, Viv, what a great time you must have had at Fabric Mart! I’m really looking forward to seeing your creations. Congratulations on your collaboration! What a lovely surprise for you, as well as the gift voucher - what a day! Thank you as always for your constant inspiration and encouragement. You are always a joy to watch. Kind regards from Penny in Liverpool 🇬🇧😊💕
Hi Viv, well done on your fabric Mart sponsorship you so deserve it, plus it was so sweet of the person to arrange a gift card for you too 💖 your fabric haul was great as always, as are you take care 🤗🏴 Ange x
Hi Viv, what an awesome fabric haul. You really did have a great trip, so exciting. Beautiful fabrics. I can't wait to see what you make with your gorgeous fabrics and a huge congratulations on your collaboration with Fabric Mart. I don't think the person that made the comment could have watched many of your videos. Have a great week. Val🇨🇦🇬🇧❤️
Love your fabric choices. Congratulations on your sponsorship with Fabric Mart. I am so happy for you. Blessings.
Hi Viv, just catching up with your videos... there is always one isn't there, but you know that thousands of us love you Viv and we all adore what you do on your channel...you bring us happiness 😁💖. Congratulations with Fabric Mart and so well deserved 👌. Gorgeous fabrics as usual.. happy sewing ✂😁😘
I just love you! The point is you bring so much happiness to others! I get your channel and you lift me up!😉🤗
@Nancy Butler: AMEN!
Yes always!!! Julie g
Absolutely!
Spot on, Nancy. 👍
Yes, exactly! ❤️
The point is fun! You are a joy to watch and you always make me smile and sometimes laugh out loud. Then there is sewing. Yep, all things sewing. Fabric, patterns, tips, completed projects, and the life that we live that has absolutely nothing to do with sewing. Wow, all that in 1 channel. Love your channel and keep up the good work.
Listen Viv I don't know what this comment about your channel or videos being pointless means, but to me it means inspiration, I live in Puerto Rico a small island in the Caribbean where people are warm, loving and happy go lucky type, since hurricane Maria left us hopeless and sad I began sewing clothes for my grandaughter without any knowledge about sewing, and looking for ideas I found your channel. Oh my! It sucked me in! I started watching your videos and waiting for new ones to show, I feel inspired, you make me laugh like if I were with a friend in my livingroom, sometimes I find myself talking back to the phone ( that's where I watch your videos, mostly) so going back to the "pointless" thing, there you go, that's the point🤭, you don't have to sew in every video to inspire, just by watching you show patterns and sewn garments is more than enough, keep it up, you rock! My best wishes on your new entrepreneurship!!! (sorry Engligh is my second language)😊
P.S. still would love to see a tutorial for that adorable #9253 Vogue ☺
Oh, Vivmom, your channel for me and I am 100% sure for all of your followers has been an inspiration. AND THAT IS AN AWESOME POINT! You are so honest and down to earth. You are not pretentious! You are caring and kind. You are so full of joy. AND YOU LOVE TO SEW AND YOU SHARE THAT WITH US. That inspires me/us. Just keep doing what you do! Congratulations on your Fabric Mart relationship! They have realized your potential! You are blessed because you have blessed me/us with your pure love of sewing and your ability to be my/our friend. God bless you, my friend. PS. I am working on my topper. Maybe only one or maybe 2. My school teacher daughter wants a long, sleeveless duster. We will see if I can pull off 2!❤👍
Viv!! That is SOOOOOO AWESOME!!! Fabric Mart loves you like WE do!! YAYYYYY!!!
Yay!!! I hadn’t heard of Fabric Mart before I found your channel. I have bought from them 3 times now. I’ve recently talked to them on the phone about an order and whoever I talked to was so very nice. I was very impressed with their customer service. The race is on when you present your new makes with their fabrics. You will sell it out Viv. They picked the right person to represent them. I can’t wait.!!!
I must admit that lately I’ve been watching your videos & a few others instead of sewing but I love fabric mart I’ve never been disappointed with anything I bought I’ve been a seamstress for over 30 years I’ve just been slack lately but watching you has been encouraging to me if someone says you don’t sew they haven’t watched very many of your videos I also do embroidery and trying to learn vinyl I watch videos on all of them I think I have too many hobbies but don’t let anyone discourage you because you are an encouragement to lots of us I work full time but am a widow for 7 years I have a great man in my life but he’s gone a lot so TH-cam & crafting are my sanctuary most of the time so keep on keeping on love your videos❤️❤️
Oh my I would watch an hour long video of your fabric/patterns, so never ever worry about the length of your videos. You are receiving well deserved blessings for being who you are and for kindly sharing it with us.
As to rude commenter, I prefer to think it was merely said out of ignorance, since she obviously has not seen the plethora of sewing/modeling videos you have generously posted.
A great show,I love the fabrics,It is so awesome that fabric Mart has chosen to sponsor you ,I am so happy for you.keep sewing.
I love your channel almost as much as I love sewing!! Ignore the ugly comments!! I love your fabric haul! You bring a smile to my face so there.... your channel has purpose!! Like sewing it make us happy!! ❤️👍🏻😊 also, congrats on the sponsor!! That’s amazing and you deserve it!!
Love ALL of the material. I’m so happy and excited for you. 🤗 Your videos always, always make me happy!
I watch you because you are ALWAYS able to lift my mood, even when you’re a little down in the dumps! You have a phenomenal outlook on life and remind me that things could be worse! The fact that you sew just adds to the pot!! You and Joy are like my neighbors Dow the street. Keep sewing and Congratulations 🎉 🎊
And about that dumb comment... The point is...I used to go to a fabric store and gaze at the books..it relaxed me...my creative juices flowed. I dont know your background, but you would have made a great TV personality. You are beautiful, joyful, enthusiastic and you remind me of when my daughter (26 now) would go to the Disney store and try on the princess outfits, and twirl around and be so happy.
You are like that when you try on your creations and show the patterns,
The only good thing that comes out of these complainers..is that you get more comments supporting you!! (and comments matter on youtube lol!!!)
Amen Sew Sister !!!
Exactly! Well said!
I add my amen! Perfect points perfectly stated! Love and hugs for Viv forever! 🥰
I am so happy for you! Congratulations! Had to laugh when you said, “What IS the point?” I believe the point is; you are like our friend who the majority of us who watch relate to for our love of fabric, patterns and sewing! (And the kitties, too!). To us you are like the friend we sit down with over a cup of coffee or tea or the next door neighbor we pop over to visit and see what is on the sewing table next! I love your down to earth manner and humor! Fabric Mart made the right choice! I kinda envy you now! Lol. Keep up the awesome channel and let us know when those great pattern sales are on for Hobby Lobby!
Hahahahaha!! What’s the point to your channel? HILARIOUS!! Give her my number... I’ll do the explaining! 😂😂
Better yet, even my husband can explain it! He even asks quite often, “How’s your friend down in Virginia doing?” That personal impact, sweetie! SERIOUSLY!
If 18,000+ folks are loving what you’re doing, you are certainly doing something right, and you know that, of course. What’s happening in your lives is a testament to your faithfulness, and when growth happens there are sometimes growing pains, right?
When I watch your videos and my husband hears them, he’ll be laughing from the other room, even! He gets such a big kick out of listening. Now, if he hears your voice he will come into the room and watch. BTW, he was happy for you and your fabulous trip to Fabric Mart! It’s amazing! I love the way God sends us encouragement during trying times, and refreshes us. We ALWAYS need it.😄 And look! NOW you’re even giving encouraging spiritual words to your audience! 🤩
Back to sewing...
The fabric was exciting and the outfits (which we now find out you aren’t actually sewing, they are just figments of our imaginations) are going to be beautiful too! ☺️ I just CANNOT wait to see your new wardrobe with those fabrics!
You’re moving into a whole new gig with sponsorship from FM! Congratulations! RIDE THE WAVE, BABY! 🌊 Enjoy the highs!😎
Gotta love that Zig! Senior moment... can’t remember black kitty’s name...😬😬😬
Have a great week as we are off traveling to another round of grandchildren activities! Some day I’ll get back to sewing!
But hey, fabric shopping, talking, and thinking about sewing are my favorite pastimes... HEY! I even watch a TH-cam channel for that!🤣😂🤣
Blessings!💐
My husband "knows" Viv, too. He always asks if I am watching her, or what did she say, etc.. :-)
Here here! Exactly! I second it! Spot on! Yes! And sew on! Well said, beautifully shared and do you have a channel? Seems like you should. Can't tell you how lucky I am to consider myself a part of this sewing circle. It doesn't make sense that anyone complains about it. Some aren't happy to merely move on without a trace. 🤷🏻♀️

Awesome video, loved the fabric haul and the caftan. The Lord has seen you're heart my dear sweet lady and has poured His favor out on you and you're husband.

You are a delight to watch. Thank you for sharing your sewing with us. I watch you all the time but rarely comment on any TH-cam videos, but just wanted to say you are a ray of sunshine in your viewers lives! Best wishes! 🌷
Fabulous! Great opportunity! Love seeing all the fabric and your caftan with those shoes! That chocolate brown stretch velvet is lovely can't wait to see what you'll make. The pinstripes can be used in so many styles.. The cream and black too. 🐱🐈💖 your cats!
Love your channel.I As I said before-you are joy itself. Your channel has called us sewers to attention and we know that sewing and needlework are a beautiful thing. Thank you for being our sewing mentor.
Hi Vivmom - I love your channel. I'm a newbie & learn so much about different fabrics, patterns and ideas. I enjoy your fashion shows too. Keep up the good work 👏🏾
H Debra! Welcome, I’m so glad you’re here!🌺
Congrats🎉 Viv! I’m so excited for you! I’m a fan of FabricMart Mail orders. They respond immediately to any problems you may have with the shipped orders and resolve the issues ASAP. Thank you FabricMart for your great customer service!!💯
🎊 Woo Hoo 🎊 Yabadabadoo I’m so excited for you‼️❤️
You truly are the absolutely perfect person for Fabric Mart to sponsor!!! You know your fabrics so well & you can vision what a garment will look like from the pattern and fabric before you even cut it out. That’s an awesome talent that not a lot of people have. Those folks are going to love working with you so much.
You got some amazing fabrics. The last two are my favorites. I love all of them but those are so cheerful and fun! They will bring a smile to your face each time you wear them. Happy Happy Happy
Such a wonderful and special treat for someone to leave you a gift card.
Evidently, the person that left you the comment, doesn’t watch your channel. Maybe you should respond with a link to a video of your monthly makes!!! The one where you made a lot of garments in that month. Lol
I am so truly happy for you and your new sponsorship. It’s been a tough year for you and Brad. This came at the perfect time. God does things in His time. He is good all the time - even through the hard times.
So proud of you Viv. You will have a blast on your new adventure.
Big Big Hugs!!!🤗☀️🦜🐱🦋💕
Such adorable cat! I told you something great is going to happen for you! I knew from the first time I saw you on here that you were going to go far! You haven't seen anything yet! Class and genuine charm! Thanks Vivmom❣️ Beautiful fabric...and the dress too!
Thanks for sharing your lovely fabrics - so much fun! Congratulations on your new adventure with Fabric Mart. Can’t wait to see what you make next!
Congratulations on the sponsorship. The point is you bring joy to others who have a common interest. I love, love your fabric haul. It made me think of what I would like to sew with it. Can't wait to see what outfits you make with all of it.
I wanted to tell you I enjoy your channel so much and I am always amazed at all your makes! I also wanted to tell you that my husband will notify me of your videos and put them on for us BOTH to watch. 😁 He sees your happiness and it has made him see why I am so happy when I sew (even when it doesn't work out 😉) thank you! Keep on sharing and sewing and take care of yourself. 💖
Thank you so much!😄
Oh my gosh I cannot get over your bargains, super super fabrics and those colours are to die for, fantastic ,cannot wait to see them made up.
They could not pick a better person to sponsor. You are delightful and we all love you. I love all the fabric and can't wait to see what you sew. Keep that beautiful smile and great attitude. Love your videos.
People don't understand the joy of "pointless" and the joy of connecting and communicating about what we love. It is a great channel and keep doing YOU!
I really appreciate you taking the time to share your fabric finds and your sewing projects. Pay no attention to the person who said there’s no point to your channel. Because those of us who love sewing get it. Keep up the good job. Congratulations on your new venture with fabric mart
So excited for you!!!! Thanks for letting us share your sewing adventures!!!
So happy for you Viv. I saw Thursdays vid before this one. A very big CONGRATULATIONS to you on the Fabricmart partnership. Your passion for sewing and sharing has been rewarded. You will do really well in this role. I will finish watching this vid after work, otherwise I will be late. Have an awesome day/night. 🥂🤸♀️🌹🌼🌸🌸❤😘 xox
What a marvelous day!!!! Great fabric! Congratulations on being a sponsor! !!!!!God always provides! So wonderful! I can't think of a sweeter person to get that honor! The point is caring & loving & creativity & comradery & unity of heart! All great points!
Great haul! I love your fabric. Yes you do have a point to your channel. You bring laughter, joy, and most of a LL l support for us sewer who watch you. Whoever wrote that comment has not seen your channel, may not even be a sewer, definitely doesn't understand any of us. Love you and your channel. Like you said we really do have other people who understand our love of fabric, patterns, and all things sewing. Hugs
I love your excitement! It’s contagious! 😍 so excited for you and your new venture with Fabric Mart! How wonderful!!!
These fabrics are just beautiful! Can hardly wait to see what you make!
Must run - but just wish I could make a trip to Fabric Mart with you! That place must be so thrilling! I would have difficulty culling down to a manageable haul!
The point is to show people a real look at sewing! None of these Instagram models who only sew successful garments and fit into a straight pattern size 8! I love coming to your channel because you inspire me! Not only to sew, but to keep my head up on hard days. You're so bright and cheerful and it reminds me to try and have the same attitude! And I love seeing your sewing mistakes as well as the beautiful garments that go according to plan. It's easy to beat yourself up when you sew a fail, but I love that you see those times as an opportunity to learn and improve. And in turn, that helps us as the viewers to learn and improve too! Long story short ( 😂😉 ) I love your channel and it's the first place I go on TH-cam. I'm a brand new content creator here on TH-cam and I hope one day I make content half as great and authentic as yours! 💖💖💖
Omg chelsey, this couldn’t be sweeter!! Thanks so much. I feel like such a rinky-dink youtuber, especially when I see the slick software and cool editing people have. But my phone is adequate and I wouldn’t trade places with anyone because I adore my subscribers!!😄You’ve given me a real shot in the arm and I think I just squared my shoulders a bit more, feeling more confident! Thanks again!! I’m so happy you’re here.💕
@@vivmomsews4962 ahhhhh!! I'm smiling so big right now!! 😁😁😁
Love love love you!!!! I am so glad I am not the only person that gets so excited about fabric and sewing😁 I am happy for your new collaboration with Fabricmart. What a great personal validation for your channel!! Every time you post, if feels like visiting with a friend😁 We definitely need more of your joy and kindness😍😍😍
Oh you're the fairy godmother of sewing. You inspire us to get cracking and sew, and you're just a joy to spend time with.
I love your channel and I am so excited for you and your new sponser with Fabric Mart. And I'm so excited someone gave you a gift card to shop more. And I appreciate the way you let us enjoy your little joys. It makes me happy 😊. So please don't change. Plenty of us want your channel to stay like it is ,,, spontaneous. You do a great job.
Thank you, Betty! You’re a dear.😃
Wow!!! Blessings are being showered on you!!! Love your channel and those fabrics are amazing!!
You are absolutely correct about everyone that works at Fabric Mart. They are just wonderful. I'm so happy they chose you for their sponsor. I can't wait to see what you make with their fabric. 😊
Vivmom, I am so happy for you! You are delightful and it is wonderful for all of us (your subbies) that you have chosen to share your sewing and your life with us. Keep sewing and we
will keep watching.
You are very fun to watch and I like the fact that you sew for the men in your life too..Brad always seems happy with his new outfit and the two of you have such a sweet bond. Many times you really get the perfect pick of pattern and fabric. You have helped me get through this difficult year, so thank you. Sewing sister!
Congratulations your passion for your fabric & sewing shines through & so excited to hear about your Fabric Mart news. Don't you change a thing on how you speak or act that's why we love you. My husband is like Brad he enjoys going with me on my little trips too.
I get such a kick out of watching your 'show'. You always put a smile on my face! You are so real, so talented and you have inspired me and others to sew again! (Or at least think about sewing again!)
Fabric Mart was smart to sponsor you. Everyone who watches your videos is just dying to go there!
I have to tell you that your channel is the best channel I watch whenever you are on. You are a wonderful inspiration to us sewers who used to love sewing years ago and now do other crafty stuff, just to keep creating. But, thanks to you I want to sew again. I have to figure out my measurements and just get cutting. I wish we had your fabric mart close by so I can see and feel fabrics before purchasing. We only have Jo Ann’s Fabrics here and it seems all they sell are flannel, fleeces and cottons. You are making a difference to many people who need a creative hobby and get inspiration by watching you turn patterns and fabrics into beautiful garments to wear. So happy for your new adventure with fabric mart. Congratulations and please, keeping sewing🤗
Viv is my FAVORITE sewist on TH-cam, hands down!
She also got me sewing again!
Fabric Mart gives great descriptions and several pictures online. Their descriptions are very reliable.
Hello Viv, I love watching you. I like your style and your choice of fabrics I have bought some of the fabrics and pattern's because of you. Especially FABRIC MART. I feel like you are an old friend.
HAHAHAHAHA “isn’t everything we do pointless?!” My wife and I laughed so hard! You are so right! Sewing has brought me so many things to aspire and look forward to, I am 24 and have yet to make any sewing pals. So this community has helped me tremendously. It’s amazing to hear about your partnership with Fabric Mart. It’s incredible to see how things can turn so quickly..
Deanna I’m looking for a sewing buddy and wondered if you lived close. I’m about 30-45 minutes away from Memphis.
Zina Hardy i live near VA Beach 😭😭😭😭
Congratulations 🍾 you really got some great deals at fabric mart. I need to go. Love the red flower fabric especially 💕
Viv, you and Fabric Mart are perfect together...congratulations girl!, woot woot and more! Your excitement inspires me to sew again and take a trip from NC to Fabric Mart!!
Vivmom! Congrats on the new sponsor and thank you for your Chanel !! It's because of your Chanel that I started sewing again, and I LOVE IT❣❣❣
I wish we had a fabric mart in Canada cause I would be swimming in fabric! "Come on......really? 1.99 a yard!! " love all the fabric you got!❣❣❣👏👏🎉🎉🍷🍷👍🏻👍🏻LETS GET SEWING!
You’re the best. You and Joy gave me the confidence to start making garments. I am so glad you are here for me and everyone else. Don’t let the negative people get to you, unfortunately for them they don’t get it. If they would watch a few more videos, they would be hooked like the rest of us. God bless you and Brad on the future business venture and congrats on fabric mart sponsorship.
The caftan suits you Viv, fabric shopping sounds GREAT. Good things happen to good people, may it long continue.
So happy for you! You deserve these beautiful surprises. I stopped sewing when my daughters became teenagers. Then I started quilting 11 years ago. Now, because of you, I started sewing for myself and I love it! In Australia we don’t have the prices that you have in USA and we can’t afford going on a shopping spree like this one but I love when you show the fabrics and I am learning so many things from you. Congratulations on the sponsorship and keep sewing!!!
S
So happy for you Viv
You deserve it!
So enjoy your video's all the time
Watching you made me revisit my sewing machine after 10years break & l LOVE IT...THANK YOU👌🤗⚘
Elizabeth may I add a note? Viv's comment "Sewing is a friend that waits for you" gave me the courage/shove to get me sewing again after 6 years! I even got a topper done for the joyviv challenge. Hope there is one there from you. Sewing is my sanity!! Yay Fabric Mart!
Could not have happened to a more deserving person!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! You have a beautiful energy that is contagious!!! Continued success ❤️
Responding to "what's the point?" is difficult if you don't love fabric or the act of sewing. I have very little money to live on, so generally buy fabric when I can at my favorite thrift store, or cut up old garments to make new things. When I create something new I immediately have to email every one of my sewing friends - to try and pass on the joy of discovery, of creating, and of making something I think is beautiful from simple, often re-cycled materials. I enjoy your videos because you express the same love of craft that I feel, and help to support the community of people who love to create things with their hands. There's no other pleasure quite like it - thanks for passing on your joy and reminding us all of why we do this.
Congratulations Viv! That is absolutely wonderful! Like I told you several months or so ago. My granddaughter who is 5 loves to sit with me through your videos. She doesn't do that with everything, lol You deserve all that is being sent as blessings to you! Caio!
Congratulations on your joint venture with Fabric Mart! So glad you had a great time and I love all of the fabrics you bought. For all the happiness, laughter and sewing help you bring to all of us you and Brad need to enjoy all the wonderful things coming to both of you! Both of your new ventures are going to be extremely successful!! We love you💞
Ooo Vivmom ! I love you for who you are and what you do ! I love all your ramblings about fabrics, your experiences at the fabric stores or even about your trips/family (and cats too😍). So just ignore that 'what is the point of...' comment , such a ridiculous person , obviously that person has not been watching you vlogs. Gosh! I really envy you with your showers of beautiful fabrics and lovely friends at fabric mart. How I wish I could fly all the way from Singapore and go to fabric mart and mention your name 'Vivmom sent me here!' LOL .. well who knows , maybe one fine day . And CONGRATS for the new venture with fabric mart! I feel excited for you too! Looking forward to your next vlog 😘😍
Congrats Viv on your sponsorship!. I am glad for all things positive going your way! Love the anonymous gift giver! what a special gesture. Nice fabrics too! Thanks for your videos!
Viv, I'm so excited for you! Can't wait to see what fabric you will showcase!
What great sewing encouragement you are for us! I've even gotten out my
machine again! I love to see the fabrics and patterns! I love that you model
your makes for us. That is awesome! Your cheerful smile
brightens my day! Thanks! Hugs!
Congratulations Viv!!! Fabric Mart is fortunate to have you show their fabrics on TH-cam! I am not surprised. You are very easy to listen to and your description of the fabric is very helpful, especially the fabric content, stretch and showing a single layer against the light. Also, your camera shows the fabric grain in very good detail. I would like to know the cleaning instructions for the fabric and, if possible, could the sound be increased. I can hear if both the computer and the TH-cam site are turned up all the way. Again, congratulations!! I am sure you will sell lots of fabric for Fabric Mart!!!
Fabric Mart knows a good representative when they see her😘. Congratulations Viv.... I’m so very happy for you🥰🥰!! I absolutely love all your fabrics! You are such a sweetie and a dear heart💜! I wish you only the best today and always.
Your channel is NOT pointless. How very fun this is and how inspiring you are to those of us who love to sew, but don’t know where to start! Thank you!
I love to sew🤣. I love to collect (and actually sew them) patterns & Oh My Goodness! My fabric collection is tremendous! Viv mom, you are a wonderful friend & mentor to all of us who sew! Congratulations on your venture with Fabric Mart! I've ordered fabric from them & was very surprised & pleased with my haul! Thank you again. Always look forward to seeing your finished makes! You are loved from Tennessee... ggslove
Love your choice of fabrics! You have excellent taste! Love your videos, please keep making them. Fabric Mart chose a fabulous spokesperson! Congratulations!
Congratulations! Sounds like it was a very fortuitous trip! Love seeing all the fabrics you chose and can't wait to see what you make with them. Fabric Mart sounds like a very nice place to shop!
Congratulations Ms. Viv! Sponsorship with FabricMart is truly amazing! They picked a great person to work with! Also, your fabrics are amazing! I can’t wait to see what you do with the all!
Congratulations Viv! Enjoy your videos so much! Was a garment sewer many years ago when the kids were young, then became a quilter. Seeing your videos has encouraged me to begin sewing for myself again. God’s blessings to you!
Viv....before you, I knew nothing of Fabric Mart...now I have found sooo many great pieces to order online. It is so fun! So thank you very much!! We love your channel, so don't let the Debbie downer ruin your mood. You are wonderful, so please keep it up!!! 🤗
I have to tell you that every one of the fabrics you held up from your Fabric Mart haul was "so You". You picked such perfect fabrics. Great haul! Yes, because of you, I have been ordering from Fabric Mart. I have been very pleased with my purchases! I wish I was lucky enough to live close enough to visit their store. But, then again, I would probably bring half the store home with me, lol. Congrats on your news! Super thrilled for you. Keep those great inspiration vids coming. You always brighten my day and keep me heading into my sewing studio. PS. I love your little furry helpers.
HI Viv, I enjoy your channel. You inspire me to keep on sewing. Non of my friends sew so you and your friends on your channel are my sewing buddies. Keep sewing.
Viv, you NEVER disappoint, that is the point!! Love that you have a great sponsor. Looking forward to seeing how it works out. Fabric always makes me happy and I love looking at what you buy, it inspires me always.
Love it, thanks Vivmom. wish I had a Fabric Mart in Scotland. Keep the lovely, inspiring, happy, real, kind, colourful, genuine, videos coming, please. XXX
I wish I was in Scotland!! What a destination!! Thanks, Dawn, for your sweet message. I appreciate it very much!😃💕
I am so happy for you. When you said you were going to fabric mart I just knew something great would happen. There a very smart company. They have got the best person to sponsor. It is just a great mix. I love you and can hardly wait to see you work your magic with them. You will do great.
Congratulations, VivMom! Couldn’t happen to a nicer, more talented sewist-person-lovely lady, etc!!! (And great haul, as usual!)
Congrats on your new affiliation with Fabric Mart. I really love seeing what you make with each fabric and getting the opportunity to purchase the same fabric you used on some of your projects is going to be really fun.
I love your channel and I love watching your makes. Keep them coming. Nice to know I’m not the only one obsessed with sewing. It’s creative and rewarding, just like an artist painting a picture.
Sooo happy for you!
What an awesome opportunity with Fabric Mart.
Never let people steal your joy from you. I love seeing all the things you make.
Keep doing what you are doing!!
Congratulations Viv. Lucky Fabricmart to be collaborating with you! And that caftan is very flattering on you - the V neck is lovely. Keep sewing and inspiring others.
I love sewing too and i love the contribution you make to the sewing community. Thanks
WOW!!! What a coup Viv. You will be a great rep for them and I hope you have a long and happy partnership with them. I Bet Brad’s so proud of you! 🎉.
***You should put a purchase link on your channel so they see how many people visit the site because you sent them!***👍The fabric haul is fabulous. I’m still loving that silk and can’t wait to see what you make with it. 🌷
Talk about the favor of God.🥰 The person that made the comment must not have gone back and watched your fabric/modeling videos of what you have already made. Anywho, you are a joy to watch, and I look forward to your videos. Sewing is a passion for some of us, so its REALLY NICE to see others who share the same passion. Keep doing the videos, and God bless.🥰
You are one of my favorite youtubers!!! Keep doing what you are doing. Love watching your videos. You motivate me! Thank you!!!!
I loved that intro with the kitties. Congratulations on your new venture and thanks for sharing all that fabulous fabric..
Hello friend....I know I will speak for many when I say that your channel does have a huge purpose.
By you being brave enough to expose yourself to the world and share your joy, smile, successes, failures, etc., you have managed to form a community of friends that gather often and spend time together around a passion and love called SEWING! I look forward to visiting with you via you tube and for the first time in a long, long time, I am pulling out my fabrics, organizing my notions, searching for my patterns and creating a space dedicated to sewing. It's all because of you! You did this! And I'm soooooooo sure I'm not the only one! This life can be challenging most of the time, (and many may be in a dark season or just coming out of one) so its important to have joy and creative time in the midst of that! It feeds your spirit and your soul!
SO THERE! The people that don't get it..... this isn't for them. So from the rest of us (which are the only ones that matter 😁), we say, carry on sister! ❤
Aww Melissa, you worded this beautifully. Thank you!! I love the “feel” of this community, if that makes sense. Everyone is quick with a word of encouragement, a fix, an idea, curiosity, excitement and overall positive input! I could not ask for more. I have met the most enduring and endearing people here, strong women, creative souls nurturing a hurting and often cold world. Thanks for adding to the quality of this channel - it may not be flashy (good Lord, could my editing and camera work be any clunkier) but the people here make it solid. Solid gold!!😄👏👏
I can't imagine a more perfect Fabric Mart Ambassador than you, my dear! (Sorry my congrats are late coming; been busy evacuating from Hilton Head Island due to Dorian!) We had plenty of time to get our home in order and decide where we'd go (hubby and I always try to turn these hurricane trips into fun getaways.) Well, as he was making the final walk through the house before we left, I was busy in our car programming the navigation system for...you guessed it...Sinking Spring, PA!!! Oh my stars, I did not want to leave Fabric Mart and, if they had rooms to rent, I would have moved right in! But, back to my reason for writing. Congratulations on your appointment! Well deserved!❤️
I am so happy for you and your Fabric Mart sponsorship! It will be a win-win for everyone! I love Fabric Mart also and have been very pleasantly surprised by their wonderful customer service and how they’ve reached out to me if something I’d ordered had ended up going out of stock.
This is so exciting! Congratulations and best wishes for this great partnership! I can’t wait to go to the Fabric Mart site and see your picks. I love watching your videos, and I get so excited when I get notified of a new one! I hope I get to meet you someday!
Congratulations Viv,💐great fabric picks keep on keeping on we all love your channel. 😊
Fabric Mart is now on my bucket list ! Thanks for sharing your fabric haul. I really enjoyed that. It helps me to know what to look for when I’m out and about. I now look at fabrics with a different eye. Thanks to you and others like you. God bless ❤️
A huge CONGRATULATIONS Viv❤. So well deserved because you and Brad are darlings. Lots of hugs and love from Canada. P.S. You look like a little kid in a Candy store. LOL😁
