My father used to say that he probably wouldn't live to see the year 2000. He passed away Dec 21st, 1999. He was 71 as well. Thank you for sharing your similar experience. It was lovely to see your mum with her siblings ❤.

Your garden is looking fabulous Kristen, it’s never ending work though. ❤

the fabric is stunning as are those two dresses from the beginning off the video!! So lovely.

How lovely to see your beautiful mother, today. You are dear to share your memories of loved ones unseen. Great coffee machine, Joe!

I'm glad you kept that fabric for yourself. It's beautiful and I look forward to seeing what you end up making with it

Those dead stock fabrics look awesome!!❤

I Love how successful your business has become. May it continue to grow. You're an inspiration Kristen.

Lovely Kristen. Absolutely gorgeous pattern and print for the Ella dress ❤

I missed the advent calendar do you have any left Kristen? Your Christmas dress is stunning.

Love the flutes!

Thanks Kristen

Great behind the scenes thank you love your lipstick what a wonderful trip 😊😊😊

Do my number 2 😂 that sounds great 😂

Thank you for doing this vlogmas series, I feel the excitement of the season building just listening to you talk about your decorations or even the dreaded post office trips at this time of year hahah

Love the behind the scenes snippets and the exhibition wow! Oh no, coffee machine down!! At least there was a tried and true backup! Have a great day 🌸🌸

Loving your vlogmas. The da Vinci exhibition had a bit of Michaelangelo as well I noted (e.g the sculpture) but no credit, which seemed strange. I haven't received my advent calendar yet. It's on its way and there's nothing to worry about but it's just taking its time to get to me. Please can you give a warning if showing it again? I am avoiding all the vlogs about it as I want to keep the suspense but really don't want to miss yours. xx

Beautiful... what dress are you wearing to the exhibition? It looks great on you. Thanks for all your hard work x

I love the shakou wrap dress!!! Am I missing a link for that one? Is there a pdf version? Thank you so much for all the delightful suggestions!! I need at least 6 of these patterns!!!❤❤❤

Awesome exhibition, I love the music, what an amazing place to go and enjoy. Love to you and your family.🥰

Kristen, this was such a treat!!!! Love everthing in your vlog💞

Thank you for the lovely vlog. I love it when you take us on your travels! 💖💖💖

Loving Vlogmas ❣

Thanks for taking us along, the Lyme exhibition looked wonderful, Deb

Happy vlogmas your Christmas Day dress is stunning ❤

Oh I just LOVED watching the cutting and folding. Especially the cutting, the fabrics are so gorgeous. Thank you for showing the Lume. I loved it. Makes me want to go to Melbourne. Maybe we can get down to the Van Gogh exhibition. What a great video.

What a wonderful exhibition. Thank you for sharing❤

Love your Ellie dress in Miss Moresby fabric! I can't wait to see what you have on order for your followers. Happy Anniversary too! I had such a lovely long weekend in Melbourne for the Frocktails weekend, so I am looking forward to seeing where you went while you were there.

Love your videos. I have just watched a great film about a dressmaker "A Stitch in Time" - a lovely film. Australian.

Kirsten your purple shoes! They're the best ever. I am mad for colored shoes. Amen girl my kindred fabric and shoe spirit!

Lovely video, Kristen! And yes! I did make a Vali dress in the Miss Moresby design you sewed up, for Christmas 2022! It's definitely a favourite of mine. Such a pretty, bright fabric. Can't wait to see all the new Miss Moresby designs!

I also love dachshunds! Going to check out Adair <3

Love your dress Kristen - its so flattering and the fabric is gorgeous. Love my Bernina buttonhole feeding foot - don't have any more buttonhole dramas - expensive but worth it!

Ha, ha. You do not look like you could possibly be married for 31 years. Perhaps you were a child bride. HAHA

Kristen 31 years! You are so lucky. I'm so envious of all the amazing places you go with your hubby. We are only at 13 yrs n I tell you he's very lucky we made it this far😂😂. I love your tree. Your dress looks so good on you. I'm unboxing the advent calendar too! So exciting. Thanks so much Kristen ❤❤

Happy vlogmas - enjoyed the video😀

Your fruit trees look so good. Had lots of blossom this year but late freeze destroyedy crops. Maybe next year

Perfect gorgeous colours ❤😊😊

Fabulous day 1 Kristen, love the champagne glasses, Deb 🎄

Happy vlogmas Kristen! ❤

Fabulous dress x

What a fun vlog! Thank you

Happy vlogmas Kristen. That was lovely. I missed out on the advent calendar this year but I did watch Deb's unboxing and the pencils are so cute. Can't wait to see the rest. 😍

Just loved Day 1 of the Advent Calendar. Can't wait for the rest!

Beautiful colours. Kristen maybe next year if possible you could make something from start to finish, to show us stitching and how you finish it off on the overlocker.

wonderful

I love the Lindsey Rae fabrics, infact I only just bought her Christmas Box this morning. And you look beautiful in those pinks! 😊
