"...and if that means wearing this on a random Wednesday, I will do it." This is also why I'm a fan, Viv. There's no question as to your happy-dog-walking-fashionista attitude. It's healthy. And your makes are always a witness to your talents and taste. BRAVO, Viv.

And the guy who mentioned it must have been very impressed with your style. That would have made my day😊❤🎉❤
You look AMAZING in that artistic uneven blouse. The fabric works GREAT!!!
The wild dress at the end was my favorite. I'm glad you didn't listen to your family on the fabric choices. lol
Viv, you are rockin' 60!! Beautiful woman, beautiful spirit.
Hi you are so funny to me. I laugh when I see your video😂 funny and beautiful
Viv, you make all the patterns look good, but #8124 steals the show. "Make America Chic Again!" I love the Mod styles~it's always a treat when you time travel to the 60's~so adorable! 🌻
I love all of the pieces you made. I also love your carefree personality ❤
Your makes are absolutely beautiful and you are just so much fun to watch!!!! Your sense of style and choice of fabrics are incredible. What a delight!!!
I've become so excited to watch your monthly makes so inspired, and then I realise I have to wait a whole month again. Beautiful makes
I like all of the makes. I agree with you-wear your clothing wherever you wish-a dress on a random Wednesday-okay! These all looked great on you!
Oh my goodness, I spewed my morning coffee on my screen, when you warned about a seizure!.... lol.. you are darling!....and I love everything you created!.... ya got my motivation going!... TY!!!.... God bless!
All Winners. You're so much fun and a joy to watch. ❤
Great makes! You make more in a month than I do in a year! That last dress would be perfect at summer Art shows and festivals with a pair of sandals 👍 It looks very artsy!
I love that last dress! The 1960’s are my favorites! I’m just surprised I don’t remember that pattern! 1965 was the year I graduated from 8th grade and started high school in the fall. It really brings back memories! Anyway, I love the two fabrics you put together - the second fabric just really sets it off! ❤️🙏🏻
Love it all and thanks for coming back. You’re the only one for big four & Kwik Sew. Plz keep on stitching and YT!!!!
I LOVE your wild and crazy dress! Very colorful and cheery. HANG ON and keep sewing.

I absolutely love your fabric and 'makes' you always look stunning in what you sew, fab figure.
Stunning dress in the blues/orange etc….
You are so thin, Viv. Thank you for sharing. I get a kick out of you. My little granddaughter lives in Virginial and is 10 yrs old and made her own dress and made it her own. She went to some contest and won first prize.She is so smart and now is crocheting. She makes jewelry and hair things So creative.
Love the crazy quilting cotton dress !!!!!!!!!!!
All hour clothes were very beautiful. Im a very beigy browny person . its so nice to see such vibrant coloured clothes . I love to try it . its beautiful to have colour in your wardrobe . thank you very much dear . love you loads .
“This is a ZIP FREE ZONE!” You go, Viv!!
Viv...You ARE so much fun! Even though you didn't like sewing that wrap-like top, THAT looks fabulous on you! LOVING that style because it's so Chic! My absolute favorite is your ITY dress! That fabric is beyond gorgeous with the sunrise motif. So flattering and beautiful on you. And of course...your last dress with the bright prints! So cool!!! Vibrant colors look amazing on you and I love how you used a 60's vintage style. PERFECT!! I can see you wearing some tall white "Go GO Boots" or some sparkly dress sandals and even some fun flip flops! What a fun and versatile dress you made! The sky's the limit. As always, thank you for the inspiration and fun! I hope your ear gets better too❤🩹💖💖

Go go boots - absolutely...
I love all your makes, as usual! My favorite of all time though, has to be the last dress! So much fun! It reminds me of Sabrina from Bewitched.
Oh that 1960's dress is just the happiest! Love all your makes this month. Thanks sew much for sharing with us!
My favorite is the1965 A line dress. So much fun and color. Gorgeous!¿
Wonderful makes! “Just create” YES! I love the quilting cotton wild dress. It makes me happy and it looks like it makes you so happy too!
You are hilarious! I always get my mojo to sew when I watch your videos! Love your bravery to try different fabrics together even thought the family said no! It looks great on you!! Keep sewing and modeling your makes!!
Viv, you are fabulous, all the makes are fabulous. I love the last dress, it reminds me of "Laugh In", so 60's. I'm sure you are the best dressed dog mom out there! Great fabrics. The ITY dress was stunning, love the fabric, love the dress on you. I'd say Feb makes are a huge success!
The eclectic dress at the en is nice, it would be excellent at church for Easter with an Easter bonnet.
The ITY dress is so pretty!❤❤ And I love the vintage dress with the wild fabrics. So creative.❤❤
I have got bins and bags of fabric, and been thinking about sewing again. YOU have given me the Inspiration I need. I like the Kwik Sew 3141 dress with the pockets. You are sunshine to many. Thanks for sharing.
As always, lots of fun, amazing garments. The last dress I'd my favourite.
Thanks for posting your beautiful February makes! It is a bright spot to see such lovely fabrics during this bleak time of year. I ❤ how the 60s dress came out with the fun fabrics. So creative and perfect for the time period! Thanks for all of the inspiration you provide. It's a treat to watch your videos!
I absolutely love your 1960’s dress and I’m glad you enjoyed making it! You are an inspiration!
I just love you. You always make me laugh, and brighten my day. I'll be hanging on til next time. Lol
Love your crazy 60's dress. The boots look perfect, very Nancy Sinatra!
I love the half cape blouse! That 60’s dress needs some white go go boots! And by all means consider me one of your hangers on. 😊❤️
Happy trails on your random Wednesdays! What a nice fashion show for the other dog walkers. : )
I really like the crazy combination because I like some funky things.
Beautiful job as always! The last dress is beautiful also. I’m always amazed at your creations! Thank you for encouraging us.😊
I always look forward to your Makes; they always look so well done.
Your February makes are a high spot in my month. Thanks for creating such fun clothes. It keeps me going! I hope the dog park walkers enjoy your makes too. Why not wear them if you’ve got them, I say ( and do too)😄
I have to start sewing again. I use to enjoy it when I was in school- many years ago. Thanks for the video. Love the dress.
I love the hacking pattern outfit,very fancy. And the following dress is the best. The wrap top is stylish and my favorite. Your cotton quilting dress is fun. I imagined you enjoying and having fun with your sewing
Fabulous makes. You can wear anything and look great!
I love love love your ITY dress, absolutely stunning. And of course the 1960s dress is amazing. Some lovely makes as always. I hope your ear gets better ❤
Love the KS 3141 dress.....very flattering. Well done with the wacky dress at the end...I love it
Great makes, Viv and they all look fantastic on you - you must be the most stylish dog walker at the park! I bet the family have changed their mind about the ‘seizure’ dress - the fabrics look great together! Hanging on ‘til next time, kind regards from Penny in Liverpool 🇬🇧😊💕
You are so much fun to watch Viv.....love your enthusiasm.
😂😂 oh, you're so cute. Hang on, yes, very cute and funny ❤ love everything!!
Love the first outfit on you. Love.the Sunshine dress! Oh love the black pants too, looks good with the red shirt!love that pull over dress, I would make it in Linen. I love the crazy quilting dress SO CUTE!!
Great makes! That 60's dress is a hoot! You have the figure for it and it works! Thanks for entertaining us all again!
Your last dress is awesome! It fits you so well. You need a pair of white Go Go boots 😂 Teasing aside, that dress will look cute with flip-flops or heels and take you anywhere. It is very tastefully assembled. Great to see you. Bernadette
Don't worry about perfection! Just create! Viv. You just don't know how much that touch to me. And I'm going to my sewing machine in about 20 minutes. I don't know what I'm going to sew, but I'm going to sew.
Great makes! And a big YES to wearing what we make - any day of the week :)
Hi, my favorite, by far is the last one, the McCall's 1965 dress. I love the two patterns together, and the colors are fab! Thanks for the show. 😊❤️
I love the dress you made with the 2 wild, colorful prints! It is adorable! I think many folks have difficulty with fabric combinations. Anyway, it turned out great. I love to see what you make. You’re so dang productive!
Love tour mixed patterns dress. I knew it would look great together. Enjoyed the makes show. Thanks bunches.
I am so happy to see your makes again. You look fantastic and the outfits are great. Keep the videos coming.
Hi Viv, Love the makes. Whenever I have problems with blocked ears, I take a deep breath hold my nose, close my mouth and force air out through my ears,works every time 🙏💚☘️
All of these are beautiful! I like how you model them, tell about them and move on to next item. And the ‘hang on’ is just right!Your sewing is an encouragement! Hope you get help with ear problem!
Beautiful makes, I love every thing you made, the butterick pants & the newlook shirt are my favorites. Also the last dress.
I love ALL of these fabrics and your wonderful makes, you are so stunning and entertaining 😂, keep making wonderful clothes
Love that last dress, fabric & all! ❤ Love all your videos! Keep sewing!
Mrs. Viv , you are a delightful lady. Always enjoy your monthly makes . Look forward to them . Love your last dress with the two different pattern fabrics. You encourage me and keep me motivated to sew! Thank you 🥰….
LOVE the 1965 dress! (You needed go-go boots to accompany - lol) 🎉
I love the Seizure causing dress!!😅 Awesome Viv!
I'm so glad to have found you! You inspire me with your skill and encouragement :) I've been sewing on and off for fifty years and your approach to sewing is right up my alley! Love the monthly fashion shows of what you've created. You're so fun to watch. Thanks so much!

Thanks Veronica, and welcome!😃
What a great group of makes for February - love them all!!! Hope you get your ear straightened out!
That’s crazy print dress is my favorite! So pretty!
Oh I absolutely love your vlogs! You make beautiful garments in gorgeous fabrics and you explain what you do in such a fun and refreshing way. You always makes me smile. Another successful month. I’m ’hanging on’ for the next one. 🤣🤣
I love the last purple dress. I have some purple heels that would look great with that dress. Dressed down with white sneakers would be cute too. I also really love those Butterick slim navy knit pants Viv. ❤❤
So enjoy watching you model your makes. You are so talented and beautiful.
We DO hang on!😂😂
Ah! The last dress came out so cute! I remember when you showed the fabrics. I thought they looked great together... And they do! 🌻🍄
For that water or ? In your ear….try this!…decades ago when my beautiful Mom was alive, she had all sorts of unique curing methods for a host of problems. For your ear, find someone who smokes cigarettes, yes cigarettes. Have them light one up then place the filtered cigarette in your ear and pretend your ear is smoking. Leave it in for a minutes or 2. Then do that just 1 more time. See if that cures your problem! Can’t hurt to try! I enjoy your channel ❤
Great makes. My favourites were the wild sun patterned dress, the light blue slub twill dress and yes the floral asymmetrical top. Your impression of what you hear with the water in your ear was brilliant 😂
Oh mygoodness! the "crazy quilting cottons" one is just 😍😍😍😍!!
I want to thank you for inspiring me to sew for MYSELF! I loved sewing as a hs student but the last apparel project I sewed was a maternity jumper in 1981. You have given me the thought to if this doesn’t turn out and I won’t wear it, then donate. Thank you 😊
Absolutely love the dress with the two coordinating purple tones and bow! Looked lovely on you!
Omgosh these were all great makes but I love, love, love that last one. I would wear it on Wednesday too.
Loved all your makes…..you have inspired me again….. also am not a fan of zippers, especially back zippers……the last dress is fabulous….😊🇦🇺
I really like that ITY Print from Fabric Mart It Looks nice on you beautiful dress
Love all the makes this month, especially the mod 60's dress and the ITY dress. I've said it before, I'll say it again... you have the knack for matching patterns and fabrics that look fabulous on you. Great job this month! You should do a fashion show of your favorite makes that are in your closet, that are your favorite go-to's and one of makes that haven't gotten as much wear as you'd like.
The uneven blouse I like it and when I get ready to make it I want you to come over and help me . I'm scared
Loved the cross over top, hated the dog park dress. Thought fabric would look better in a summer duster . Anyhow love your blogs thank goodness for your individual pattern critique and think that you’re a hoot 😂
Oh my gosh! That itty fabric!!! 👀😍 you did fabulous making it into a gorgeous dress! Thanks for sharing your ups and downs in sewing 💜
Oh Viv! What a stunning psychedelic dress! I just love those two fabrics together! You are a genius, every month something new and exciting! You have inspired me to search out some wild and crazy fabric and make me a sixties dress! Feel better soon.🤗
I love the 1960s dress the two cottons go nicely together.
You Did a Great Job, Viv! It's Always "sew nice" to see what you've been sewing! Thank you!
Great makes! I especially I love, love, love your 60’s dress!
You look great in all the outfits! Pays to have a flattering shape!
For the lost instructions, Grace (sew lovely with Grace) just talked about how to get lost instructions on today's vlog. Love all your makes.
