Hi Vickie! I'm glad that you are recovering now, and you are so right, we need to appreciate every day that we are given. It's a new year and it's the time to try new things and set our minds up for the goals we want to try to accomplish. I'll add Kayla to my prayers, if you could add a Margaret to yours. She's a little girl in my church who's very very sick and she needs a lot of prayer. <3 Of course I'll keep you in my prayers as well Vickie, and God bless you and keep you.

Happy New Year Vickie!

Thank you so much for the video. I’m a newbie and tried making the modified granny square following a pattern in a book my daughter gifted me for Christmas. I was totally baffled and you helped me so much 😊

I am a beginner in crochet and your video has helped me a lot!

This video was so helpful!! thank you so much!

You are absolutely correct, the whole system is totally crazy. I will say Gabapentin is an anxiety medication that has a pain reliever side effect. That's really odd that they would prescribe it to you, but that's probably why you are having the reaction that you are. Don't let them increase your medication if you don't want to, if you are uncomfortable with it just tell them. It's your health and you make the final call. If a medicine isn't working, talk to them, tell them to try something else. <3 I'll keep you in my prayers Vicki and don't worry about the subs or crocheting fast, I'm slow at crocheting too, I feel ya!

I have a semi-paralized forearm, so I understand! The physician operating on my arm decided he didn't feel like doing my forearm. He almost didn't operate on my upper arm. I have AFIB, and he didn't like that. Gabapenton is not good for you because it has a ton of side effects! Just be careful!❤❤❤❤❤

Start taking a good quality turmeric supplement for your pain. Pain is a result of inflammation. Inflammation is a result of something deeper that most doctors don't care to find out about. I take the shwartzkopf brand which is very good. Get off the pharma meds.

Hi, I live in Arizona and it’s hotter than hot where we live! I just found your channel.

Thanks for the review

Hi Vickie! I know you were talking about Christmas presents, my aunt who quilts makes quilted bags and wallets, those probably take less yarn/material and would probably be faster to make for this Christmas. Just a thought, I'm not sure what I'm doing this Christmas, probably mittens this year or something like that. Please don't worry about the giveaway, take care of yourself first. God bless!

Hi vicki Jo so good to see you again...the pain you have in your arm I had once and I got tired of doctors not helping so I went to a natural healer and she taught me tapping for pain and anxiety if you google it's on you tube and my God if you believe it really works it has been a godsend for my arthritis in my hips a deficiet of a ruptured brain anyrsum Much love

Do you know how to crochet granny squares? Im stuck on how to do the starting corner of each row

YAYYYY. Vicki Jo❗️I KNEW you would get to 500 subscribers❗️👍 That is AMAZING❗️I’m SO HAPPY for you❗️🎉🥰 Bobbie

Fantastic! Congratulations for hitting 500 subscribers!!!!!! That's a huge milestone to reach!

Congrats on 500 subscribers, yay!!! Awesome milestone for your channel.

Very pretty x 👏🥰

Congratulations on your 500 subscribers!!! Well deserved!

Nice work

Hi❤

Congratulations to you!!❤

Check your stash for colors on Indian blanket, I know you have yarn stashed

Congratulations!❤🎉

Congrats on the 500

To search your other channel you have to add ministry on the end, not just storms of life. I'm still subscribed

Nice shawl Vickie. I always tell people that shawls can be worn in other ways than as a shawl with the point in the back. They're great as accessories with a point in the front under a layering piece. My sister wears hers tied around her waist.

Hello Vicki Jo! Thank you for the wonderful message and video! I look forward to seeing more of you!

You are having a pretty sunshiney day! Thank you for the uplifting message. Thank you for cheering BAD on... she is such an inspiring lady. She is smart! She has over 1000 patterns available online. She is a very active participant in animal rescue organizations. She has given thousands of dollars to the various groups. And she has a big family who all look just like her! Your gifts are beautiful! Glad you had such a wonderful day!❤❤❤

Beautiful

Thanks for your blessed message🙏🏼❤️

Amen for your thoughts Vickie! I would send out an email to KZbin asking them why the channel got struck without any warning, usually they tell you in an email or something. The only thing I could think of would be if the material you based the teachings off of was copyrighted material? That's the only reason I can think of, I know of other youtubers who have touched on controversial topics and gotten strikes or takedowns but I've never heard of them just striking a small channel with only 5 subs before.

Nice work, sounds like my state with Windy spring..

Very beautiful work Vicky

Everything has came out so lovely!! The shawls and the blanket are such beautiful works!! 😊 Thanks for sharing

Hi Vickie Jo 👋🏽 Very pretty yarn! Yes, they would make some amazing shawls!! Congrats on the new grand baby! Beautiful baby blanket pattern. The Lacy Poncho looks fun to work up!!

What is up with your shawls? I love shawls! Yours are beautiful! It's too hot here for anything else, here in southeastern NC. I have a bummed up arm also. Always fall on my left hand. Just have to push against the pain, I guess! Pray we both get better soon!

Love seeing your projects! Were you planning to make a mandala blanket?

❤❤❤ wow I love the candy corn colored one you made it was my absolute favorite 💗 💓 ❤

You got the cotton! I have the blueberry patch in my cart along with some others. Its not the softest cotton but would make a nice shawl or garment. They also have the merino blend that i love too, also a fingering weight. I can't wait to see what you decide to make

VERY PRETTY!!!!!!

Vicky your corner to corner is beautiful!. Oh, I love the orange shawl, the colors are stunning, I'm sorry it didn't cooperate for you, its so frustrating when things just don't work.

Like the item in the background did you make it

Hi Vickie Jo!!! Amazing!! Amen! So glad that God has lead you to do this!! I will head over to your new channel and check it out!!! Both your shawls look ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! The color ways are beautiful!!! 🙂😃

I got my latest JoAnn yarn today too. Ill be sure to check out your new channel.

Hi, Vicki Jo! I applaud you for following your heart and what God is leading you to do. I’m happy for you and your new venture! So nice of your granddaughter to help you set up your new channel. I wish you nothing but the BEST and will continue to be a subscriber. ❤ Bobbie 🥰

Sad to see you leave this channel but excited for your new journey! I’d definitely be interested in your studies on your new channel!! Any biblical inspiration is appreciated!!! I’m currently doing scripture writing on Spiritual Warfare. Depression & anxiety is very scary & I am a victim. Thank you, Vickie Jo! I look forward to it!

I can't agree more about those with anxiety and depression. Society has normalized it and big pharma has provided a "solution" which is only a bandaid. I look forward to your new channel. It's because of you that I decided to create my own. Mine won't be the same as yours but more of a way for me to voice my concerns and thoughts. I'm still learning scripture and the fighting the enemy to get into His word. Dementia and Alzheimers are a result of our environment....heavy metals everywhere!!!! God bless you Vickie. I also look forward to hearing what you think about that K+C 1 weight cotton. Do you have a way to ball it up? You can't use it straight from the hank. Don't fool yourself like I did that you can work from it because you can't. Look up videos on youtube how to ball up a hank without a swift. Let me know if you have any questions. You definitely don't want to deal with tangled fingering weight cotton!!!

I'm glad that your husband's tests came back so well. I love red heart yarn especially the ombre. It gets softer with each wash and wears like no other yarn that I know of. It doesn't pill much either.

Colors are matching. Does it match something in your living or craft room or is it someone else's colors? Tru boo isn't my favorite, but is pretty. It's very kind of your son to be a helper for you! ❤❤❤

The colors are PERFECT!!! Love the blanket 🙂
