When I was a little girl, my mom made Barbie clothes for mine and my sister's dolls. We had wedding dresses, coats, dresses, etc. They were beautiful, and she took so much time with them. We didn't have much, but I had a great childhood, because my mother made it special.

I hope many people comment to thank John for his part in today’s video! So cute that he took the time to film it, let him know his efforts were appreciated! It showed a neat little glimpse into a dynamic of your relationship.

Thank you John!! Hide your boards...lol!

[@roxanneklafehn8516]

My sister was 16 yrs older than I and when I turned 7 she gave me a Ginny doll with a full wardrobe she had made. Several of the fabrics were scraps from maternity tops she had made when carrying her 1st baby ( born 4 mos after my 7th Bday). Sweet fabrics. Tiny little collars and waistbands and pockets. Even a tutu with seed pearl trim from her wedding gown which she had made. I still have all of the clothes and the doll. I'm 76. Ginny is 69 lol.

[@annroberts5965]

Mary, you are right, sewing during the winter months is my favorite past time. My Mom and I have been sewing since October. We made Pjs for all of the grandchildren and great grandchildren for Christmas. Since Christmas we have been making a quilt for my baby brother and his wife. This makes the third quilt we have made together in three years. So much fun sitting with my Mom and sewing and she tell she me stories of her childhood which I love. My Mom was 99 this past December. She taught me to sew when I was 9 years old and I have made everything from baby clothes to ceiling to floor silk drapes. I love you cat window seat. I wondered why you were putting a steel plate on the board. Genius. Ann from Va.

[@laurancurtis5669]

I hope your are either writing down or recording these stories. I have decided to do that with the stories my Mom is telling me, she just turned 85 and I all of a sudden realized if I DON'T do that, all of this family history will be lost.

[@annroberts5965]

@@laurancurtis5669 My goodness Lauren, I thought I was the only person who spends the whee hours of the morning awake and on the IPad. Mom and I have been writing down these stories for years. I compiled most of them several years ago on the computer and copied them into a journal. I made a cover and titled it “ Through the Years”. My Mom also writes poem and I included all of them in this journal. It has been a long time since she has written any things but I so enjoy reading them and her stories every chance I can. I have copied this journal for several members of the family. Ann from Va.

Nothing like hearing a nice sharp scissor cutting through fabric.

[@dianacurrao8348]

Hi Mary! Great video. Just a tip, the reason your hot pad binding had pleats is because you cut it on the straight of grain. If you cut your strips at a 45 degree angle on the bias it will have a lot give and conform to the rounded edges and that won’t happen. ❤

[@freedomshack]

Sewing is a lost art. My mom taught me to sew when I was a young girl and I made costumes. I eventually went to school for Interior design and later learned to make custom window treatments, bed coverings, pillows, table runners, and other items. Thanks for your inspiration today. I’m gonna find a sewing project now.

[@Mivette2001]

I wish my mom had taught me. I learned some and can make some clothes but def not all.

You are never too late to learn. Start simple. Videos, new cheap sewing machine, scarf, tablecloth, headband, bandana, even a pocket square. Spent some time at the fabric.

[@vcalibur1]

That's great, over she been sewing since youth because I do. I sell what I make, give as gifts and sew hats, scarves for church and homeless shelters.

[@debrawalls1379]

I really like how you take a “terrifying” skirt pattern and make it not so terrifying. I worked in different sewing factories from age 15 to age 37. God blessed me with a beautiful little girl at age 37. At age 39 went to technical college, along with 3 part-time jobs. Did this for 3 1/2 years and graduated. Stayed home for a couple years and then went back to work as a overnight customer service representative. Stayed there until April 2011 and had heart attack. Went back to work at public library, significant pay decrease and no benefits, but was at home with daughter. Worked there until April 28, 2011. Had 1st open heart surgery on May 3, 2011. No work. Had 2nd open heart June 28, 2013. Was up walking halls with a walker that same day! ❤❤❤🎉🎉

[@nancyholston6746]

So wonderful that your husband thinks ahead of what you might need, but knowing that he has to have a reserve to suit what your project needs. 😊

[@suegreenough8522]

This brings back memories. We didn’t have much money when we were little. Womens lib hadn’t really occurred so mum was at home. She snagged some small gingham fabric in a bin, one pink one light green. She bought a pattern for Barbie sized outfits and got busy. She had an old Singer treadle machine with the bullet shaped bobbin. She made dresses, head scarves, pants, pop tops, shorts. All in the gingham so you could mix and match. It was fiddly work and she did it after we were in bed. It was fabulous. I still have that machine and the cabinet it folds down into with the iron fretwork legs.

[@sgodbout2213]

I have taken up sewing again. I learned as a young girl from my mother. This year I made pillows with the word "friendship" for my girlfriends and "family" for my two sisters. I'm so grateful for the ability to do this. I like the idea of the table runner. I have a square table that is impossible to buy a runner that really looks right. John did a fine job - thank him for giving us a chuckle about hiding nice boards from you!

As usual, I always enjoy your videos! You’re so talented and I love your many skills! Not many husbands can say they have to hide wood from their wives!😂 😂😂

To say you are creative Mary is an under statement !!! So love watching your videos as they are so peaceful. You and John are such a sweet couple . Thank you for showing the beautiful birds, I think they are God's little gifts to us. We feed them too and with a covering of snow the cardinals especially look so beautiful !! Hope you and your family have a very nice week. Love the case you made for your glasses !!!

Beautiful sewing projects. Love the nice spring fabric that you used. Thanks for sharing the bird feeder with us so we could see all the wonderful birds. So glad the cats like their new place to lay.

[@karoleenascottage]

Quilter here- if you want to make another pot holder, look up binding a quilt on KZbin. I find Jordan Fabrics to be the easiest to understand. It’s not difficult to do. Thanks for doing a video on sewing ❤. It’s my favorite hobby and I’m always looking for fun and easy projects.

[@laurancurtis5669]

Sewing has become sort of a lost art. I am beginning to see people around me wanting to learn how to sew now, asking for teachers etc. It is so refreshing to see the renewed interest in it!

Put a spindle leg on the cat platform for a bit of stability. What a cute idea.

I love your sewing videos Mary! And I especially love hearing about your childhood. I’ve been sewing since I was 9, when I was in 4-H. I learned to sew my own clothes,and I now sew for 3 generations. My favorite thing is to sew doll clothes for my grandchildren! I especially loved watching the birds at your feeder! We don’t have red cardinals where I live, so seeing them was a real treat. So amused at John “hiding” your pine boards! 😊 Keep the videos coming; you are such an inspiration!

I remember making my 4-H apron! First project. Still have it somewhere!

[@susanhayirli8474]

How lovely that your husband made his own video... nice to hear his voice

[@WomanUnfiltered]

Both my grandmother & my sewed, but I never learned. So, even though I've sewn simple baby quilts for many years, I'd never ventured out beyond that. I'm turning 65 in a few months & decided last year to teach myself to sew. There are a few lovely ladies like yourself on KZbin who share easy sewing projects explaining each step to make it easier for beginning sewists. I haven't ventured out beyond pillow covers, table runners, card wallets, curtains & such as of yet, but there are so many simple things you can make that honestly looks store bought for a fraction of the cost. Thank you for sharing. ❤

[@lorimckenna2386]

I actually laughed out loud when John admitted he hid boards from you!!! 😂 You do everything perfectly and I can see your hubby does too. Love watching you.

Mary, I love the way you keep things so simple. I know I will be trying that basket liner method. Your husband hiding the nice boards and you saying he needs a new hiding place gave me a good laugh. Thank you so much for your calm and gentle spirit, and for sharing your ideas so freely.

[@gailrhodes2859]

One year for Christmas I bought my daughter 3 of the the larger size strawberry shortcake dolls lemon, peach and strawberry!! I made her outfits , in solid teal, yellow and pink colors and each of those same colors in gingham check. I made blankets, and all kinds of clothing, everything in I made I made in both fabrics for each doll. Bought a mini baby crib that fit all 3 dolls. My daughter is 49 and guess which dolls she saved for her daughter if she had any!! She had 3 boys so 2 boys are married and maybe a little granddaughter will get to enjoy them! I’m thinking she probably remembers that Christmas above all others!!

[@user-jz6uc7tw8c]

Thanks Mary loved all of your sewing projects. I have been going to Zinks for many years. I was just in your area mid january for my birthday. I went into the Zinks and told them that it was my birthday and they gave me a discount. Thought that was so nice of them. I also mentioned your name and they said, yes they knew you and you were a very nice lady.

This video is so reminiscent of my mom. She was always sewing. Either doing alterations for people , making our doll and Barbie clothes, our clothes and then even my wedding dress. I’m so sad that I didn’t have the passion for sewing back then. She gifted me a sewing machine for my bridal shower and I was only ever able to make the very basics. Now I struggle with that machine not knowing how to adjust tension, the bobbin settings etc. I want to look for sewing classes near me or just start watching on KZbin. Thanks for sharing Mary!💕

My mom gave me a tiny suitcase filled with Barbie clothes she'd made, and my friends and I had endless hours playing with the dolls and clothes. I had one Barbie and one Midge, and my best friend had Skipper and Ken. Perfect for an afternoon of imaginary fun. I eventually got the Barbie convertible but didn't like that the doors wouldn't open. :) Flash forward to present day, and I have a black cat who loves to sit in any window, so I love the seat you made for your kitties. All your projects are pretty and useful. I enjoy your channel.

[@melodymedlock160]

I may be dating myself here but a drawstring bag was the first project I made in home ec back when they taught sewing. I admit I didn't take sewing class as seriously as I should have. That is one regret I have. Luckily, I was raised by my phenomenal grandparents who taught me all of the wonderful things I know and now hold dear. I do know how to sew but it has been so very long ago since I had access to a sewing machine. It is definitely on my wish list. I found a Singer while thrifting for $14 and I'm still having nightmares about not buying it. Even if it didn't work I wouldn't have been out much. I wish I would've taken the chance. My grandma also made doll clothes for me. My Barbie doll even had a faux mink coat that she made. It saddens me when I think about the skills I was taught as a young lady compared to what so many younger people learn or don't learn now. Important skills like knowing how to sew could be completely lost in the next generation very easily. I love your videos and really look forward to them. I've learned so much from you. Thank you. I am extremely grateful.

Love the projects but just got to say I envy you your bird table view, what amazing colourful birds you get coming to feed! Our British birds tend to be less showy, especially living in a town. Need to add that the skirt waistband is such a clever way of getting a smooth fit, will definitely be trying that.

[@christinabudd2252]

Thank you John... loved seeing his part! My mom sewed my clothes and my doll clothes. My favorite doll, Pebbles, I still have and she repaired it so many times.

Great video, Mary! I get in the mood to sew about once a year…this time of year!

Anyone who can sew n make their own clothes is truly blessed. Every time I try to sew on my machine my seams are always crooked. I even tried putting tape down on the machine n I still do it. I think I’m not meant to sew LOL. That was a great idea making a cat seat for your fur babies. They just love to sit n look out the window don’t they? Your basket insert cover turn out like you bought at the store but even better. I loved all the great ideas n all the material was so pretty n spring like. I really liked the eye glass carrier. I wish you could put them in your Etsy shop. I know many women would love it too. I don’t like the hard covers either. They’re so big n take too much room in your purse. The one you made is perfect. I hope you’ll reconsider of maybe doing that. Please! ❤♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🌟
