I'm a Button Thief! Richmond Thrifting, Simplicity Vest & 38th Anniversary Highlights

[@Susietacoma]

Thank you for the review! I have this pattern and I like it very much, yet to sew it. Thanks again. 🌷🌱🌷🌱🌷🌱🌷🌱🌷🌱🌷🌱🌷🌱🌷🌱🌷🌱🌷🌱

Happy Anniversary - looks like a wonderful trip to celebrate with family! Oh, I recognize Simplicity 5333 - I made it over and over for my kids and used the yoke to cross-stitch their initials with waste canvas. My daughter and I were stuck in Atlanta's airport overnight once because of an ice storm further away that backed everything up everywhere - you should not have had that problem this time!

I have a friend with a couple of tiaras. She wears them housecleaning. She does have one particular one she wears when her husband has done something particularly thoughtless. In general, that signals him: you are in the doghouse and I need some space on my own right now.

[@TodayinJensSewingRoom]

That is hilarious! I'm stealing that one!

[@barbaraa6098]

Nice trip, thanks for sharing.

Happy anniversary wishes to your husband and you!!💖

“Full Busted? Sew clothes that fit” dvd by Palmer/Pletsch would be so helpful for you. I don’t know what adjustments you typically do, but this was a revelation for me. Happy Anniversary!

[@socarole66]

Aww hope you had an amazing Anniversary the both of you❤. Loved your catch up from your trip to Virginia and of course, it was wonderful to see you playing with the little chap 🥰👦🏼. He is growing up so fast! Sounds like you've had a ball, concerts, thrifting, eating, good company, what more could you ask for 😂 💙💙xx

Happy 38th wedding anniversary to you both 🎉

Happy Anniversary!! Enjoy your visit with family. I Love the shirting fabric at JoAnn's. I made a pair of shorts last summer out of the same blue and white polk a dot fabric. It's a very comfortable fabric to wear in hot weather.

[@janegilson1886]

Happy Anniversary! I actually really like that little vest/top! Agree, might be more comfortable if it was a little longer in length.

[@deeperrydesigns2878]

Happy Anniversary! 38 years is truly a blessing! I’m celebrating my 30h with my Hubby in October. I live in RVA, excited to hear you were in my neck of the woods, hope you enjoyed your time here, I know you did, since you were with your babies and grandbaby. Safe travels and thanks for Friday Sews, God bless and looking forward to your next video. ❤️🧵

[@ZeldaSews]

The important thing is you knew what you pulled from your closet was something you made! I did that for the first 15 days and then I ran out of things I had to wear so I wore them again.😅😅😅 Happy Anniversary! I lived in Richmond Virginia a couple of decades ago.

[@brendastevens8325]

Happy anniversary have a safe trip

[@dianewilliams7931]

Happy anniversary! I also love Florida but it does get hot and sticky. We see the old Florida homes that we know were built before the days of A/C and wonder how the state ever became inhabited. After experiencing their first summer and hurricane season, you'd think they all would turned tail and left!🤣🤣

[@RunningWithScissors-th8jo]

Happy Anniversary! You give a whole new meaning to “blue-haired grandma”!! 😄❤️❤️

[@TodayinJensSewingRoom]

I keep telling everyone that's what I am 😂😂😂

[@victoriahannah1633]

Happy Anniversary, so glad you got to spend time with family and do lots of great things. Hard to believe that little boy is so big now. You weren’t too far away from where I live. Chesapeake Virginia. Down not too far from the coast and just above the state line. We had that happen to our air conditioner about 3 years ago and it was hot & miserable.

[@AndraMakes]

What a wonderful trip. Grandson is so stinkin’ adorbs, and is getting so big. Time flies. I made a top a few years ago from that blue and white polka dot fabric. We’ll have to twin next time we’re together. 👯‍♀️ Love you. 😘💗

[@TodayinJensSewingRoom]

Wish I'd had time! This was for my anniversary so it was all about Mark & me. But you know how I love seeing you! Next time . . . xoxoxoxox

[@AndraMakes]

Absolutely! 😘💗

[@MichelleSewsAgain]

Happy Anniversary Jen! Miss you 💕

[@heathern9051]

Happy anniversary 🎉🎉🎉

[@TodayinJensSewingRoom]

Thank you so much 😀

[@pinkysfarm461]

Glad you had a great anniversary and saw all the kids. Your vest is super cute, too bad its short on you. Def try that one again! WHAT?? A/c broken??? NOOOOOO! Too hot for that! I see alot of trips to the ice cream shop in your future lol! Love you❤❤

[@TodayinJensSewingRoom]

Yep I forgot to tell you. Makaela texted while we were gone and said it was 88º in the house. There went lots of $ on a new hvac system. But the house is cool!

[@janegilson1886]

And your hair! Very cute!

[@TodayinJensSewingRoom]

Thank you so much

[@bluegrassdreams2seams510]

Happy anniversary! That vest is cute! I loved things like that when I could wear them🤣 Remember when we were young and carefree? Those teen years….. I’d never go back! Yikes!

[@TodayinJensSewingRoom]

So true!

[@carmensalome]

Wear your crown for your birthday. I got a crown for this year's milestone birthday. 🎉love the vest. I made one too. Happy anniversary. Fun video.

[@maryellenoneill9061]

Happy anniversary! 🎉. Sounds like a great way to celebrate with your true love and family! The vest top is ☺️. What changes will you make to the armhole area? Hope your A/C is working again. 🙏🤞.

[@susanakfogel8217]

Happy anniversary I had 36 wonderful years with my husband before he departed for the netherworld. I miss him every day. About your vest I’m sure you know this, but just in case use your high bust for the neckline and through about a third of the way down of the arms side on each side and you might need to make a rounded back adjustment and that will help with the you have some gaping in the neck line as well as the Arm holes. Which is my problem too because I’m full busted. I love little vest and I love stripes and it really look cute on you, but I understand it’s too short and at our age or you’re younger than me, but we don’t wanna be showing our bellies Stumbling upon Friday so I’ve watched you from your sewing room in Florida and I am in Florida and it is miserable here. Yesterday the weather channel said it was 90° and felt like 103 we need the humidity to break. We need a big storm, safe travels home soon. I will be doing my video. I’m doing some prep work.

[@ChristineSewsALot]

Sounds like a great time.

[@Lady9tails]

💜💜💜

[@dotschischloh9767]

Love the blue hair. 💙💙

[@judisewnsew6514]

Where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average. 😉

[@AGirlAndHerDogz]

Why is your hair blue now?

[@mlynncannon4188]

Just had our AC replace-Ugggg$$$$$$

[@SewTexas]

The vest is nice- but not for you.
