I sewed a lot with my grandmother when she was alive. She would say, "on a galloping goose, no one will notice." I still don't know if we are riding geese or putting the outfit on the goose. In any case, welcome to the goose gallopers!

We miss my dad so much too. It’s so hard watching our mothers lose their person and try to navigate life around it. At 71 and overcoming a HUGE “I will NEVER do it!” fear of flying... we’re packing for her first flight to SF tomorrow! It’s important to do what we can for them once we become adults. ❤️

That's definitely one of the hardest part for us too. Best of luck with your mom's first flight!
Your mum's advice at the end is exactly what I need right now tbh. What a beauty and such a wonderful thing to do for her, hope she has a fabulous time wearing it!
I'm soooo glad that you stuck with making the beautiful dress from scratch. Especially when two sewing machines broke on you, and you had to sew by hand, then relying on pattern sizing it wasn't right for your mom😢, so you upsized it. Then .... perfection🥳🥳🥳🥳🎊🎉🎊🎉💯💯💯

First of all my heart goes out to you & your mom. What a wonderful way to show love. I'm pausing at time stamp 4:03 to say, leaving lots of space betime pattern pieces is potentially a waste of material. Abuelita taught me to pin pieces as close together as possible to maximize our resources.

It makes sense to leave extra space if you're a beginner or if you're not exactly sure of the person's measurements. When you have extra material you can make it bigger with out adding awkward seams. This was actually needed in this video since the dress was a bit too small for her mom initially.
You are both so beautiful, and so was your dad. This was amazing to watch, even though the tears

You are so incredible! This gave me so much motivation & ambition.
Quick inspiration for you all - Remember that God placed you where you are at this exact moment for a reason. Your current struggles and challenges mean something. Whatever your going through , God loves you to much for it not to work out🤍
I thought Michael Levine's closed forever!! 😭 This video made me so happy to see that blue and yellow!!!
Burda patterns have instructions. And so do sewing machines. 🤦🏻♀️ I hope you back stitched because otherwise if you wash it, it will all fall apart in the washing machine.
So sweet. I love my mom
So sorry to hear about your dad,but Ur mom and dad are very proud of you.
I'm sure we can all agree, it only took Gizmo's approval to be a winner

Beautiful dress
Vivian did a good job with the dress and problem solving when she hit a wall, but it hurts my heart when people don't read equipment manuals. So many of her questions (i.e. winding the bobbin, changing the needle, etc) would've been answered there.
This is so sweet and such a good idea! I sew and so far my mom has only gotten an apron. She loves tho.
