I love to see all pattern/fabric hauls. If people have a problem watching they should move along and not try to persuade you to stop doing something you love.
Viv, I love your haul videos!! Sorry, but anyone who gets "sad" over seeing your hauls ... needs some help. God bless them, truly. But please, keep being you!! ❤🦋🎉👍
If fabric hauls make her sad, she shouldn’t watch. Some people are sad no matter what. You are making many more people happy and inspired so please carry on!
I'm always so excited to watch when a new video is posted! I love fabric hauls, pattern sharing and makes videos!! I struggle with finding the right fabrics. Thanks for sharing!!
I enjoy seeing your new patterns and fabrics. It's nice to see what is available for sewists these days. And I LOVE seeing your monthly makes. It's so much fun (and educational) to see what fabrics you chose and why. Don't change, Vivmom! You are an inspiration!
You will never know how much you have inspired me to get back into sewing clothing again ( after 40 years). I accidentally found you a few months ago and absolutely love, love, love getting caught up on your video’s from years past! Since the 4th of July I’ve made or repurposed over 7 garments and each one has been a happy success!! You did this for me, my friend, so please don’t stop doing what you do!
Please don’t stop showing the fabrics- it is incredibly helpful. Just don’t listen to complainers, they can move on, meanwhile, you’re great and just love yourself ❤️
You have done nothing but give me encouragement and insight and wisdom in sewing from everything you do .....it has helped me so much! ( By the way... I just got a shipment from Fabric Mart today and it is the most beautiful fabric I've ever seen.... they really blew me away today.. thank you for telling me about them! ) I do think something is going on with FedEx...it took 2 weeks to get my fabric...they were not telling me where my package was. I thought maybe they lost my package...it finally arrived today! 🤗 Your fabrics are so beautiful! Your nails look great!😁 Yes! I also picture my fabric already made into something when I pick the fabric out... It may end up going to a different pattern choice but I still have a good idea of what it's going to look like... Sewing is so much fun!🤗
The delivery problems happen (mostly) when a vendor ships FedEx Post. That service is cheaper for the shipper because the pkg is turned over to the USPS for actual delivery. I have had pkgs be within 10 miles of my house and end up back in Pennsylvania instead of being delivered. True story. And it mostly happens with Fabric Mart pkgs. It is so frustrating but I don’t think the fault lies with FedEx.
You are a ray of sunshine to me . Your videos are such an inspiration. Your willingness to share you life , family and kitty with me brings joy, Blessings to you . Don’t change doing what you do to appease others ever … Period .
Viv, your hair looks beautiful today. As for your nails, when you are home, put a bandaid on each finger. Speaking from experience, it does work. It breaks your habit. We are all your friends and and don't worry about how your nails look. None of us are putting ourselves out there like you are, we all love you just the way you are.
I know I’ve told you before but finding you (and Joy Bernhardt - not sure who I found first) helped me through when I lost my Dad and almost my mom to Covid last November. You have inspired me to start sewing again and watching your Makes videos got me through some very long nights. Love your pattern and fabric hauls. I love that you include Brad and Collin and sometimes even Candace. Please don’t change a thing. Thank you for all you do.
Hi Vivmom,🤗 I have never, ever been confused about your video. I love it all. Dont let people pressure you into follow alone Construction projects. You are uniquely you and I love seeing the finished product. They are always SOOO Beautiful. You be you!!!👌👍💙💜❤
Viv, so good to see you!!! Listen, your channel has inspired me to start sewing again. My favorite thing you do is visit us like we are friends; I love watching your fabric and pattern hauls!!! If watching your channel makes someone sad (which sounds weird) then they can move on and find another channel!!! We like you Viv, keep on keeping on!!! Judy
Those people are what we call trolls. Love your hauls!! Love every video you have made. If someone cannot afford patterns, they should make their own. When I can’t afford something, I recycle or make it myself. You have inspired me greatly. Thank you for that!!!
I love your makes, I write down the patterns with inspiration. You’ve been very helpful with Your fabric choices and yes I’ve gone on fabric marts site and ordered my own! Don’t let your embarrassment of your nails stop you, love watching your sewing ! Love your headband in this video 🥰
Vic, don’t change anything. If people don’t like your channel they can watch other sewing channels. Not every channel has the same purpose. If they want to learn sewing techniques they should watch a channel with that purpose. It’s fun watching your videos and you shouldn’t be made to feel bad because of the type of videos you make. I’m glad Zig is doing better. I was so sad when he was sick because I’ve lost 3 babies in the last 3 years and now one of my cats has kitty Graves’ disease and lymphocytic bowel disease and my dog has Cushings Disease and tracheal collapse and a suspicious tumor which can’t be removed because the Cushings and tracheal collapse make it far too dangerous. I know how special our babies are to us. Also I wanted to say that watching your channel is like visiting a dear friend. Please don’t change anything about it.
Confused?? Sad?? I love watching your shows, anyone sad by watching you show patterns or fabric, why are they watching a channel that deals with Sewing? I love your content, you’re doing a great job, and I for one always Smile when I see your videos. The one with your Sisters made me literally laugh out loud (I am the youngest of seven girls), I love when you show patterns and fabric, and notions (I thrift a lot of Vintage notions), just know plenty of us support and appreciate what you do. 💞💖💞
Other things your videos teach is all about different kinds of fabrics and how they drape and how to make adjustments to patterns and things one can just cut out like zippers and button closures that can be done away with and how to adjust a neck line and how to hem in different ways.
Dear Viv Mom, don’t change a thing your vlogs are just perfect especially your ‘try-ons’ I am so encouraged by your productivity 🥰❤️🥰 Sharing your nail biting habit was so touching and transparent and brave of you to share! xxxx
She may get sad because she can’t afford to purchase fabric and patterns like Viv. The lady should know that Viv gets paid to do the videos and that is where she gets the money to purchase fabric and patterns. A lot of people live paycheck to paycheck and it is disheartening.
I love watching your makes videos, fabric videos, patterns videos, sewing history videos, etc. I love them all. Please keep sharing. You have inspired me and my daughter over and over.
I really appreciate all of your reviews and conversations about patterns and fabrics. This really helps me to think about fabric and styles that would suit my taste and body type. Thank you for all of you videos. I love me a Viv Mom visit. 💖
Love seeing your fabric and pattern hauls. You definitely inspire me to step out of the box and use materials and patterns I wouldn’t have thought to use. I love every outfit you make. I don’t care how your nails look..as long as their clean who cares…it’s your talent and great instructions that I care about, as I’m sure most of your viewers care about. I so enjoy your channel!! Thank you❣️
I enjoy very much what you share. It is inspiring. Your genuine nature, your honest appraisals, and fun video sharing is such a delight, a real joy!!! It feels like we get to be your friends.
MY STUNNING SOUTHERN SISTER. Keep on keeping on. I am late tuning in but I love your Channel, it is informative, inspiring, calming and entertaining. You have a wonderful personality. From all the comments I've seen on this video. MAJORITY RULES.😊🤗❤✝️🙏
I love your fabric and patterns. Your comments on the fabric and patterns is invaluable for those of us who need to know about both. I always enjoy your videos and what you plan to make from these new fabrics. It is some happiness in my sad life right now. Thank you Viv!
We don't need sewing tutorials, internet is full of it, this channel is fun because it is not about sewing technics but for all the other good stuffs related to it....
I am watching all your videos going back 5 years and I'm watching you speak about nail biting. I too, had that problem. Not now...as I had the last of my teeth pulled last summer. I am saying this to be funny. I have looked on our 70" TV and I canNOT even see your nails. I'm sending you a hug. You have me sewing again!! Show me more construction videos!! ❤❤❤❤
It’s your channel Viv do what you want. We like hauls ! We understand your concern and sympathy for those viewers who don’t but at some point you have to be you. We love you for that.
I love your videos. I am someone who was taught to sew by my mum and have sewn on and off throughout my life but I haven’t sewn for at least a decade. Your videos have inspired me to start sewing again. I love to see your patterns and fabrics. My go to is always the bargains. I just cannot buy expensive fabrics. I look in charity shops at clothing and curtains to see if I can make anything out of them. Please keep doing your videos and just so you know I don’t ever notice your nails…I’m too busy looking at what you’ve sewn and who cares what your nails are like …. If you’re worried then wear false nails that are easy to glue on and pull off! There’s more important things in life than what your nails are like, you’re amazing!❤
Love you showing fabric fm FabricMart. I buy online there. I am not so good visually determining what knit is right to use in a pattern. After I make a wearable muslin, I’ll know. I’ve learned about uses of many types of fabric from you thank you so much. I love to see your makes. I do not need to learn sewing techniques as I’ve sewed since I was 10. My grandmother taught me on a treadle singer. She had 7 daughters. She made all their clothes and trousseau. Love your videos.
I love you fabric showing. It is nice to know other people buy fabric like I do. You have help me get back to sewing. I love your personality you are fun to watch I learn so much from you. Keep on showing and sewing.
Thanks Viv for showing us your haul and your ideas. I watch your videos and others like yours - to learn about what types of fabrics to use for different patterns. I think I have learned a lot from my mistakes! Choosing the right fabric for a design is the hardest part of sewing, I think. I also enjoy just seeing other’s makes. Thanks for all you do. I enjoy it and learn a lot 😍
You are so upbeat and positive I can't imagine you making anyone sad! Love your video's! Prayers for the person who clearly has issues that have nothing to do with you!
I love looking at fabrics .....love to touch them and feel the texture..... I do that with ready to wear also if I don’t like the way they feel in my hands I won’t buy them......
I do not understand people who "don't get your channel." Ummm. Strange they would even say something like that. I LOVE your channel; you inspire me to sew clothing once again!!! You have ALMOST inspired me to sew for my husband (but I probably won't). I am sewing a new shirt today because of you. I also look at patterns very differently now because of your teaching and comments. I also buy more patterns and am more brave about what I sew BECAUSE OF YOU. Keep up the great work and don't change ANYTHING. I love everything you do with your channel. I have been sewing since I was 12 and am older than you. Thanks so much for the inspiration.
I'm happy, inspired, and motivated to sew when watching your fabric/pattern hauls and makes videos. Viv, thank you for introducing me to Fabric Mart, New Look/Kwik Sew patterns, and for your creative fabric/pattern combinations. When I'm fabric shopping, I may not have a specific pattern in mind, but I do imagine the type of garment I would sew Happy sewing, my lovely sewing sister!
Don’t change anything about your channel! Please! I just LOVE the hauls videos . I am a kindred spirit with regard to buying fabric and patterns. I live in Maryland and have been to the magical Fabricmart store in Sinking Springs. Heavenly……am recuperating from a broken leg (a sewing room fall in the beginning of the summer) so my sewing has been interrupted! I am happy to live vicariously by watching your videos.
Goldie, I’m so sorry about your leg! Sending best thoughts for a speedy recovery. Falling in the sewing room makes me sad! But you’ll be back and better than ever👍
You are for sure an inspiration, an encourager and very helpful with pattern information and fabric knowledge. Yes, we love seeing what you buy. I feel for the viewer that gets sad when she watches, but if it affects her that much then she should probably watch a different channel. We don’t want you to change. Besides, you give great deal information to help us save money too. Thank you for sharing, Viv!
Vivmom, please don’t listen to these negative people. I recently was ill and couldn’t get out of bed. It was your videos that got me through. I watched them nonstop and they lifted my mood and got me excited about sewing again. Really helped with my recovery. So, keep doing what you do, we really enjoy it.
I love the diversity of your channel, the fabric hauls, the patterns, your makes, all of it. No reason for you to be concerned if someones "sad". Thats ridiculous. You're sharing what you love to do and we are here for it. You're not a therapist or life coach.
I love watching you and you have indeed inspired me. As long as your nails are clean I'm ok with what they look like. (Maybe getting them professional done will help you keep them nice.)
I love your fabric haul and pattern videos!! Please don't stop showing those to us. You've really inspired me to step out and try new things. Thanks to you I'm especially enjoying discovering vintage patterns on Ebay. Keep up the great work and just be you from head to toe and right down to your fingernails. We love everything about you!!
Oh please don’t stop with your fabric hauls! They are so very inspiring! I have learned so much about what a certain type of fabric looks like and drapes by you holding up your pieces!! I feel like I am in a close friends’ sewing room when I watch your videos and I agree with everyone asking you to keeping being YOU! On a side note, a dear friend also has a lifetime habit of intensely biting her nails. She has found the solution in Kiss press on nails. They don’t damage the nail bed, and in the Petite length they aren’t too long for daily activities. I have no affliction with this brand, etc, but I also have tried them and do wear them when I want to have “dressed up” nails… since I play the piano, they are a way for me to have pretty nails on special occasions and then off they come and I’m back to gardening and piano playing, lol. Love you and your videos!!!
oh goodness girl - you need to stop worrying about other people - just do you - show what you want, even show your fingers as you are - do not ever let anyone blow out your light and sparkle - enjoy being you and sharing your wisdom... I LOVE seeing your room behind you - as it comforts me, as I have my stash all out on display too - love your channel.
I can hardly wait to see what you are going to sew with all those gorgeous fab’s!!!!! I love florals, sateen! Yay!! I LOVE ALL YOUR MAKES VIDEOS. Please just forget about your nails….we all have habits that take us down, some us us eat too much, some of us drink too much, some bury their sadness in other more destructive way that I can’t mention……that’s why we need to SEW MORE. Sewing is healing, I know you know that!! 💜 I also wanted to write regarding unsupportive comments….I am sorry to say that when I have been in a dark and sad mental space😢, I have commented harshly on some folks videos. I am ashamed and so sorry. Please throw all of those out the window and do you Viv!! 💜🌈💜
Hey Girl-Almost 25K subscribers are here for a reason. You have an exceptional gift and expertise in the craft of sewing with a wonderful, articulate, and delightful personality. As others have said-“You do you” because YOU are who we tune in to see. Blessings! ~Becki
Great video. Love the linen find. We are truly blessed in our country. Thanks be to God. I always enjoy your videos. Nice to see variety of subjects. You & Joy are my favorites.
I want to thank you for all your wonderful videos. I became very ill last year and am not strong enough to sew, something which has been part of my life for decades. Watching you has made me so happy, like visiting with a friend about a joint interest. Please don't be discouraged with negative comments because you are bringing joy to so many. I love your practical sewing methods and can't wait to see your fabric and pattern pairings. You are a beautiful person inside and out. God bless.
The heck with people who don't like your channel. If they don't want to watch then don't watch. I don't watch every sewing channel myself and even the ones that I watch all the time - may not "appeal" to me at that moment. I've learned that it depends upon my mood when I'm watching -- but I do enjoy them eventually, especially when I go back for review. I enjoy watching your fabric and pattern hauls getting to see what is available and what may be possible. You're the one who got me to shopping for material on line which is something I never would have done before watching you. I love Fabric Mart! I appreciate the fact that you are willing to share your experience with us. I also enjoy when you complete a sewing tutorial. I like to see and hear your families take on the items that you make for them as well. Continue to do whatever it is you feel like as it is your channel.
You are much loved Viv and truly inspirational. Those florals are so beautiful. I can see a wedding outfit in some of those. Keep on showing us your hauls. We love it. ✔👍💕
I love your taste in fabrics. I was so drawn to your descriptions and what you were going to make with them. Your taste is exquisite. God bless you and your family.
Some people are just born sad. Don’t let one sad person spoil the enjoyment for the rest of us. This video was just delightful so please continue everything you have been doing.
I enjoy your makes/hauls/whatever! I just enjoy “hanging out” with you on your channel Viv. It’s easy enough for someone to click on a different video if hauls are not their thing. I hope you’ll still do these kinds of videos. I have my moments of pattern/fabric envy, but for the most part, watching hauls and hearing your plans inspires me to create something similar if I like a particular pattern enough:)
Girl....you light up my life!!! Haters gonna hate!!!! That sounds like it's a her problem... Give it back to her and keep going....You be You is all you can do!!!! I live an hour approximately from Fabric Mart!!! Cater to the MAJORITY .... We support You!!!! P.S...... Love all of what you bought today.. It was gorgeous especially the pink swirls!!!
You have such a great personality that I have never noticed your nails. I like your taste in fabric &a patterns and I love, love, love when you open boxes of fabric that you receive that is a surprise to you.
This is my very favorite type of video that you do. Not only to show the fabric slowly and up close & talk about the fabric, but also to tell us what you envision for each individual piece of fabric. You make me the opposite of sad. I wanted you to show us everything in that bag girl.
Yes, I love your videos and I enjoy your fabric hauls and when you show us what you have made and everything about your channel and yes you do inspire me and I love it and you just keep it going girl. Godbless you and yours.
Just want to say, I think you’ve hit a home run with your channel! You have motivated me not only to sew for myself but I’ve started teaching a newbie who wants to learn to sew her own clothes. I immediately sent her to your channel!
Tip for the viewer who gets sad envy. I buy fabric from goodwill and patterns. There are free patterns on line and reinvent your clothes. You can make patterns from you existing clothes. We don’t have a fabric store close by so the above fills in the gap. My mum always said where there is a will there is way 💛
My family members constantly tell me, “for someone who hates to sew, you sure do a lot of it” and they’re right! I moan and groan all the while I’m sewing. But watching you makes me want to sew more! Isn’t that funny?! You are so cheerful and fun, and excited about your projects! So I truly love your videos!!! Thank you, lovely girl!!!
You inspired me to get back into garment sewing! I make quilts but I used to make all my clothes and my kids. Now I am back into both. Don’t worry, some people are always going to be negative. They should find a hobby other than sewing. And I am 70 and still chew on my nails so it’s ok. I am like you when I see fabric and touch it I know exactly what to make out of it. I love sewing and love to watch your videos. You and Joy make me smile and laugh and I love that you share that with me. Thank you for making my day a little brighter.
I just love watching you don’t care if it’s material,sewing videos,or just what you have been doing in general .Some people are just never satisfied don’t change anything. X
Viv, you are like a breath of fresh air.Oh, especially when you do fabric hauls.It’s my pleasure time because I love fabric. You rock girl , keep going. God Bless.
Please don't change your format. I watch you because of your fabric haul and pattern reviews. Like everyone I have watched other sewing/fabric videos. But none can compare to your enthusiasm and love of fabrics and sewing that shines in your whole face.
The haul videos help me as you comment on the fabric, let us know what they may be used for - and it helps me learn more about sewing. I enjoy your channel and you do motivate me to sew. Thanks
I love to see all pattern/fabric hauls. If people have a problem watching they should move along and not try to persuade you to stop doing something you love.
Viv, I love your haul videos!! Sorry, but anyone who gets "sad" over seeing your hauls ... needs some help. God bless them, truly.
But please, keep being you!! ❤🦋🎉👍
If fabric hauls make her sad, she shouldn’t watch. Some people are sad no matter what. You are making many more people happy and inspired so please carry on!
I so agree. I love all of Viv's videos. They make me so happy.
I'm always so excited to watch when a new video is posted! I love fabric hauls, pattern sharing and makes videos!! I struggle with finding the right fabrics. Thanks for sharing!!
It sounds like a viewer isn't happy and wants someone else to join her
Love your videos--all of them. Don't stop showing us your makes, patterns and fabric. You are not the cause for anyone's sadness.
I enjoy seeing your new patterns and fabrics. It's nice to see what is available for sewists these days. And I LOVE seeing your monthly makes. It's so much fun (and educational) to see what fabrics you chose and why. Don't change, Vivmom! You are an inspiration!
I agree, I also appreciate her honesty about the patterns she uses.
Me too!!
You will never know how much you have inspired me to get back into sewing clothing again ( after 40 years). I accidentally found you a few months ago and absolutely love, love, love getting caught up on your video’s from years past! Since the 4th of July I’ve made or repurposed over 7 garments and each one has been a happy success!!
You did this for me, my friend, so please don’t stop doing what you do!
No one should shame you for your fingernails or for your purchasing habits. If someone doesn’t like what you are filming, they can turn the video off.
Exactly.
I also agree just click off and go somewhere else .I love your videos and enjoy what you show and do .I am a nail biter also I understand💖💖💖🙂🙂🙂
My thoughts exactly
A true watcher wouldn’t care what your nails look like. I would love to watch a making of a piece!❤️❤️❤️✌️
Please don’t stop showing the fabrics- it is incredibly helpful. Just don’t listen to complainers, they can move on, meanwhile, you’re great and just love yourself ❤️
I absolutely agree!
Watching your channel I have been inspired to take up sewing again after about 40 years. Thank you for your enthusiasm for sewing.
Same here. Thank you Viv💖
Same here. Viv is a truly great inspirational motivator, can’t wait till her new vids are up. 😌
Same here
You do you. I appreciate whatever you feel like taping that day as a lot of work goes into taping. Don’t beat yourself up over your nails❤️
You have done nothing but give me encouragement and insight and wisdom in sewing from everything you do .....it has helped me so much! ( By the way... I just got a shipment from Fabric Mart today and it is the most beautiful fabric I've ever seen.... they really blew me away today.. thank you for telling me about them! ) I do think something is going on with FedEx...it took 2 weeks to get my fabric...they were not telling me where my package was.

Sewing is so much fun!🤗
People geez. I mean really grow up get a life eh?
The local news station here in Atlanta recently did a segment about complaints about fedex and order statuses.
The delivery problems happen (mostly) when a vendor ships FedEx Post. That service is cheaper for the shipper because the pkg is turned over to the USPS for actual delivery. I have had pkgs be within 10 miles of my house and end up back in Pennsylvania instead of being delivered. True story. And it mostly happens with Fabric Mart pkgs. It is so frustrating but I don’t think the fault lies with FedEx.
You are a ray of sunshine to me . Your videos are such an inspiration. Your willingness to share you life , family and kitty with me brings joy, Blessings to you . Don’t change doing what you do to appease others ever … Period .
I love your channel the way it is. If you don’t get what it’s about don’t watch.
Viv, your hair looks beautiful today. As for your nails, when you are home, put a bandaid on each finger. Speaking from experience, it does work. It breaks your habit. We are all your friends and and don't worry about how your nails look. None of us are putting ourselves out there like you are, we all love you just the way you are.
I know I’ve told you before but finding you (and Joy Bernhardt - not sure who I found first) helped me through when I lost my Dad and almost my mom to Covid last November.

I'm sorry for your loss.
Sewing is an ever learning process. That’s what makes it sew much fun!!! Sewing enthusiasts love sewing “talk” as we share the love of all of it :-)
Hear! Hear! Love to talk sewing💖
Hi Vivmom,🤗
I have never, ever been confused about your video. I love it all. Dont let people pressure you into follow alone Construction projects. You are uniquely you and I love seeing the finished product. They are always SOOO Beautiful. You be you!!!👌👍💙💜❤

I absolutely love everything on your channel. You are real and genuine.

Those people are what we call trolls. Love your hauls!! Love every video you have made. If someone cannot afford patterns, they should make their own. When I can’t afford something, I recycle or make it myself. You have inspired me greatly. Thank you for that!!!
Love your bangs off to the side. Cute, cute, cute!

I love your makes, I write down the patterns with inspiration. You’ve been very helpful with

Love the hair.

Good grief, don't watch if it makes you sad!! We are so inspired by your video's and your fabric hauls. We win!!!
Other things your videos teach is all about different kinds of fabrics and how they drape and how to make adjustments to patterns and things one can just cut out like zippers and button closures that can be done away with and how to adjust a neck line and how to hem in different ways.
Dear Viv Mom, don’t change a thing your vlogs are just perfect especially your ‘try-ons’ I am so encouraged by your productivity 🥰❤️🥰
Sharing your nail biting habit was so touching and transparent and brave of you to share! xxxx
I can’t imagine getting sad from your videos! I don’t buy what you have but I still very much enjoy you. Also I’ve never once thought of your nails!!
She may get sad because she can’t afford to purchase fabric and patterns like Viv. The lady should know that Viv gets paid to do the videos and that is where she gets the money to purchase fabric and patterns. A lot of people live paycheck to paycheck and it is disheartening.
Don’t change a thing about the channel. Love it as is and your new fabrics! what a deal!!!!!
I love watching your makes videos, fabric videos, patterns videos, sewing history videos, etc. I love them all. Please keep sharing. You have inspired me and my daughter over and over.
I love seeing all your patterns and fabric❤️❤️❤️

Mew too💖

Oh I thought it said “you had me at cat.” I was kinda confused but thought oh well lol. I like yours much better.
I love your fabric and patterns. Your comments on the fabric and patterns is invaluable for those of us who need to know about both. I always enjoy your videos and what you plan to make from these new fabrics. It is some happiness in my sad life right now. Thank you Viv!
We don't need sewing tutorials, internet is full of it, this channel is fun because it is not about sewing technics but for all the other good stuffs related to it....
I am watching all your videos going back 5 years and I'm watching you speak about nail biting. I too, had that problem. Not now...as I had the last of my teeth pulled last summer. I am saying this to be funny. I have looked on our 70" TV and I canNOT even see your nails. I'm sending you a hug. You have me sewing again!! Show me more construction videos!! ❤❤❤❤
Ooh-I love your hair! Did you make that headband? I can’t wait to see your new ikea stuff! 💕
It’s your channel Viv do what you want. We like hauls ! We understand your concern and sympathy for those viewers who don’t but at some point you have to be you. We love you for that.
I love your videos. I am someone who was taught to sew by my mum and have sewn on and off throughout my life but I haven’t sewn for at least a decade. Your videos have inspired me to start sewing again. I love to see your patterns and fabrics. My go to is always the bargains. I just cannot buy expensive fabrics. I look in charity shops at clothing and curtains to see if I can make anything out of them. Please keep doing your videos and just so you know I don’t ever notice your nails…I’m too busy looking at what you’ve sewn and who cares what your nails are like …. If you’re worried then wear false nails that are easy to glue on and pull off! There’s more important things in life than what your nails are like, you’re amazing!❤
Your hair is so cute!♥️
Love you showing fabric fm FabricMart. I buy online there. I am not so good visually determining what knit is right to use in a pattern. After I make a wearable muslin, I’ll know.
I’ve learned about uses of many types of fabric from you thank you so much. I love to see your makes. I do not need to learn sewing techniques as I’ve sewed since I was 10. My grandmother taught me on a treadle singer. She had 7 daughters. She made all their clothes and trousseau. Love your videos.
I’m glad someone else buys. Material
My name is Sandra & I'm a fabraholic!
I love the fabric hauls! Great to see fabrics from other areas, and find out about other places to purchase them!
You are inspiring me. And I chose fabric the same way. I like every video you do.
I love you fabric showing. It is nice to know other people buy fabric like I do. You have help me get back to sewing. I love your personality you are fun to watch I learn so much from you. Keep on showing and sewing.
Thanks Viv for showing us your haul and your ideas. I watch your videos and others like yours - to learn about what types of fabrics to use for different patterns. I think I have learned a lot from my mistakes! Choosing the right fabric for a design is the hardest part of sewing, I think. I also enjoy just seeing other’s makes. Thanks for all you do. I enjoy it and learn a lot 😍
You are so upbeat and positive I can't imagine you making anyone sad! Love your video's! Prayers for the person who clearly has issues that have nothing to do with you!
I love looking at fabrics .....love to touch them and feel the texture..... I do that with ready to wear also if I don’t like the way they feel in my hands I won’t buy them......
I do not understand people who "don't get your channel." Ummm. Strange they would even say something like that. I LOVE your channel; you inspire me to sew clothing once again!!! You have ALMOST inspired me to sew for my husband (but I probably won't). I am sewing a new shirt today because of you. I also look at patterns very differently now because of your teaching and comments. I also buy more patterns and am more brave about what I sew BECAUSE OF YOU. Keep up the great work and don't change ANYTHING. I love everything you do with your channel. I have been sewing since I was 12 and am older than you. Thanks so much for the inspiration.
I'm happy, inspired, and motivated to sew when watching your fabric/pattern hauls and makes videos. Viv, thank you for introducing me to Fabric Mart, New Look/Kwik Sew patterns, and for your creative fabric/pattern combinations. When I'm fabric shopping, I may not have a specific pattern in mind, but I do imagine the type of garment I would sew Happy sewing, my lovely sewing sister!
Fabric hauls and plans are my favorite type of sewing videos
Don’t change anything about your channel! Please! I just LOVE the hauls videos . I am a kindred spirit with regard to buying fabric and patterns. I live in Maryland and have been to the magical Fabricmart store in Sinking Springs. Heavenly……am recuperating from a broken leg (a sewing room fall in the beginning of the summer) so my sewing has been interrupted! I am happy to live vicariously by watching your videos.
Goldie, I’m so sorry about your leg! Sending best thoughts for a speedy recovery. Falling in the sewing room makes me sad! But you’ll be back and better than ever👍
Keep living your dream Viv mom
You are for sure an inspiration, an encourager and very helpful with pattern information and fabric knowledge. Yes, we love seeing what you buy. I feel for the viewer that gets sad when she watches, but if it affects her that much then she should probably watch a different channel. We don’t want you to change. Besides, you give great deal information to help us save money too. Thank you for sharing, Viv!
Vivmom, please don’t listen to these negative people. I recently was ill and couldn’t get out of bed. It was your videos that got me through. I watched them nonstop and they lifted my mood and got me excited about sewing again. Really helped with my recovery. So, keep doing what you do, we really enjoy it.
You showing the fabrics is the best. Telling us the type of fabric how it feels flows and sews, really helps me.
I love the diversity of your channel, the fabric hauls, the patterns, your makes, all of it. No reason for you to be concerned if someones "sad". Thats ridiculous. You're sharing what you love to do and we are here for it. You're not a therapist or life coach.
Do the hauls! Love to see what inspires you to make that piece of fabric into what style of garment. Gives me inspiration to try new things.
I love watching you and you have indeed inspired me. As long as your nails are clean I'm ok with what they look like. (Maybe getting them professional done will help you keep them nice.)
I love your fabric haul and pattern videos!! Please don't stop showing those to us. You've really inspired me to step out and try new things. Thanks to you I'm especially enjoying discovering vintage patterns on Ebay. Keep up the great work and just be you from head to toe and right down to your fingernails. We love everything about you!!
Oh please don’t stop with your fabric hauls! They are so very inspiring! I have learned so much about what a certain type of fabric looks like and drapes by you holding up your pieces!! I feel like I am in a close friends’ sewing room when I watch your videos and I agree with everyone asking you to keeping being YOU! On a side note, a dear friend also has a lifetime habit of intensely biting her nails. She has found the solution in Kiss press on nails. They don’t damage the nail bed, and in the Petite length they aren’t too long for daily activities. I have no affliction with this brand, etc, but I also have tried them and do wear them when I want to have “dressed up” nails… since I play the piano, they are a way for me to have pretty nails on special occasions and then off they come and I’m back to gardening and piano playing, lol. Love you and your videos!!!
oh goodness girl - you need to stop worrying about other people - just do you - show what you want, even show your fingers as you are - do not ever let anyone blow out your light and sparkle - enjoy being you and sharing your wisdom... I LOVE seeing your room behind you - as it comforts me, as I have my stash all out on display too - love your channel.
Love that green w birds
I can hardly wait to see what you are going to sew with all those gorgeous fab’s!!!!! I love florals, sateen! Yay!! I LOVE ALL YOUR MAKES VIDEOS.
Please just forget about your nails….we all have habits that take us down, some us us eat too much, some of us drink too much, some bury their sadness in other more destructive way that I can’t mention……that’s why we need to SEW MORE. Sewing is healing, I know you know that!! 💜
I also wanted to write regarding unsupportive comments….I am sorry to say that when I have been in a dark and sad mental space😢, I have commented harshly on some folks videos. I am ashamed and so sorry. Please throw all of those out the window and do you Viv!! 💜🌈💜
Viv, love your fabric haul video! I always enjoy your videos and what you have to share. Happy sewing!
I enjoy the pattern/fabric hauls. I just love all of your fabric choices.
Hey Girl-Almost 25K subscribers are here for a reason. You have an exceptional gift and expertise in the craft of sewing with a wonderful, articulate, and delightful personality. As others have said-“You do you” because YOU are who we tune in to see. Blessings! ~Becki
Great video. Love the linen find. We are truly blessed in our country. Thanks be to God. I always enjoy your videos. Nice to see variety of subjects. You & Joy are my favorites.
I want to thank you for all your wonderful videos. I became very ill last year and am not strong enough to sew, something which has been part of my life for decades. Watching you has made me so happy, like visiting with a friend about a joint interest. Please don't be discouraged with negative comments because you are bringing joy to so many. I love your practical sewing methods and can't wait to see your fabric and pattern pairings. You are a beautiful person inside and out. God bless.
Love all your new fabrics... thank you for sharing! And yes it always encourages me to sew❤
Please don’t change I love your fabric hauls and patterns. You have given me so many laughs and ideas.
The heck with people who don't like your channel. If they don't want to watch then don't watch. I don't watch every sewing channel myself and even the ones that I watch all the time - may not "appeal" to me at that moment. I've learned that it depends upon my mood when I'm watching -- but I do enjoy them eventually, especially when I go back for review. I enjoy watching your fabric and pattern hauls getting to see what is available and what may be possible. You're the one who got me to shopping for material on line which is something I never would have done before watching you. I love Fabric Mart! I appreciate the fact that you are willing to share your experience with us. I also enjoy when you complete a sewing tutorial. I like to see and hear your families take on the items that you make for them as well. Continue to do whatever it is you feel like as it is your channel.
You are much loved Viv and truly inspirational. Those florals are so beautiful. I can see a wedding outfit in some of those. Keep on showing us your hauls. We love it. ✔👍💕
I love your taste in fabrics. I was so drawn to your descriptions and what you were going to make with them. Your taste is exquisite. God bless you and your family.
Some people are just born sad. Don’t let one sad person spoil the enjoyment for the rest of us. This video was just delightful so please continue everything you have been doing.
I enjoy your makes/hauls/whatever! I just enjoy “hanging out” with you on your channel Viv. It’s easy enough for someone to click on a different video if hauls are not their thing. I hope you’ll still do these kinds of videos. I have my moments of pattern/fabric envy, but for the most part, watching hauls and hearing your plans inspires me to create something similar if I like a particular pattern enough:)
Girl....you light up my life!!! Haters gonna hate!!!! That sounds like it's a her problem... Give it back to her and keep going....You be You is all you can do!!!! I live an hour approximately from Fabric Mart!!!
Cater to the MAJORITY .... We support You!!!!
P.S...... Love all of what you bought today.. It was gorgeous especially the pink swirls!!!
Delightful as always! You can’t please everyone, particularly if they choose to be sad. You are doing a great job. Just continue to be YOU💞😘
You have such a great personality that I have never noticed your nails. I like your taste in fabric &a patterns and I love, love, love when you open boxes of fabric that you receive that is a surprise to you.
This is my very favorite type of video that you do. Not only to show the fabric slowly and up close & talk about the fabric, but also to tell us what you envision for each individual piece of fabric. You make me the opposite of sad.
I wanted you to show us everything in that bag girl.
Yes, I love your videos and I enjoy your fabric hauls and when you show us what you have made and everything about your channel and yes you do inspire me and I love it and you just keep it going girl. Godbless you and yours.
Just want to say, I think you’ve hit a home run with your channel! You have motivated me not only to sew for myself but I’ve started teaching a newbie who wants to learn to sew her own clothes. I immediately sent her to your channel!
Thank you Phyllis! You’ve given me a lift, but you’ve really lifted up the friend you’re teaching to sew. That’s a skill for life!👏👏
Tip for the viewer who gets sad envy. I buy fabric from goodwill and patterns. There are free patterns on line and reinvent your clothes. You can make patterns from you existing clothes. We don’t have a fabric store close by so the above fills in the gap. My mum always said where there is a will there is way 💛
My family members constantly tell me, “for someone who hates to sew, you sure do a lot of it” and they’re right! I moan and groan all the while I’m sewing. But watching you makes me want to sew more! Isn’t that funny?! You are so cheerful and fun, and excited about your projects! So I truly love your videos!!! Thank you, lovely girl!!!
You inspired me to get back into garment sewing! I make quilts but I used to make all my clothes and my kids. Now I am back into both. Don’t worry, some people are always going to be negative. They should find a hobby other than sewing. And I am 70 and still chew on my nails so it’s ok. I am like you when I see fabric and touch it I know exactly what to make out of it. I love sewing and love to watch your videos. You and Joy make me smile and laugh and I love that you share that with me. Thank you for making my day a little brighter.
Love your hair that way and the bow is great.
I just love watching you don’t care if it’s material,sewing videos,or just what you have been doing in general .Some people are just never satisfied don’t change anything. X
That is some beautiful fabric!
Viv, you are like a breath of fresh air.Oh, especially when you do fabric hauls.It’s my pleasure time because I love fabric. You rock girl , keep going. God Bless.
Please don't change your format. I watch you because of your fabric haul and pattern reviews. Like everyone I have watched other sewing/fabric videos. But none can compare to your enthusiasm and love of fabrics and sewing that shines in your whole face.
The haul videos help me as you comment on the fabric, let us know what they may be used for - and it helps me learn more about sewing. I enjoy your channel and you do motivate me to sew. Thanks
You are just what we sewing viewers need love all your videos Joyce from miss.
Thank you Joyce!!💕
