Mom's Seamstress Tag

[@nynurse2]

Hi Nikki and Cindy.. So delightful watching you two together!!.. Beautiful Mom and daughter!.. Love your sewing rm and just love that outfit you made Cindy!.. It is exquisite.. What talent!.. Cherish your Mom.. I lost my Mom almost a year ago and I miss her every day!.. She taught me to sew among alot of other things, Rest her Soul.. This was a great video..👍❤️😊 Thank you!

[@SewingatMidnight]

Thank you for saying this Dianne, so sorry to hear about your mom. Moms are precious and I am very glad to still have mine.

[@dottyaraiza5053]

Oh My! Your Mom is Adorable! She loves you so much! Throughout the video I just was smiling as I enjoyed watching her answer all the questions. Cherish and hold her tight with each visit! I m barely catching up ..... but you know me.... know how to marathon watch! 🤪

[@SewingatMidnight]

Dotty, I too am very far behind. I am glad you are enjoying your binge watching!

[@nataliaryng8134]

Your Mom loves you soooo much. It's so lovely to see. You are so fortunate to have your Mom still around. Count your blessing. Great video . Can't wait to see the sewing room.

[@SewingatMidnight]

Always happy to have mom around, now I just need to convince her to move to Arizona with me!

[@ladyhamilton5179]

Nice to meet your mom. She seem like she a wonderful person. Your very lucky. Now I really want to see the sewing space. Have fun shopping for fabric.

[@SewingatMidnight]

She is truly an amazing lady, and her sewing space is pretty cool too!

[@Alex-ph5rk]

Your Mom is adorable. I can see her in you. It is good to see you relaxed and ready to shop for more fabric! You cannot forget to leave some room for you in your car.

[@SewingatMidnight]

I barely stuffed it all in, everyone was giving me stuff left and right!

[@vivmomsews4962]

Two sewing geniuses right there!! So fun! Great to see your mom, and you, and hear all about her sewing life. That Mimi G pantsuit is fabulous!

[@SewingatMidnight]

Thanks Viv! Mom loves your videos too!

[@cristinam10]

How lovely, the two of you are 🥰 you are so lucky. I lost my mom long time ago and I miss her terribly.

[@SewingatMidnight]

I can't imagine how tough that is, glad you are here with us.

[@melissaj8384]

Oh my stars! You two are too cute. I see where your mannerisms come from - it made my heart smile. Your mom's mimi G outfit is gorgeous - I want to see it on her. LOVE her fabrics!

[@SewingatMidnight]

I want to see her wear it too! Maybe she will send us a picture when she wears it so you all can see it!

[@nancywaines8871]

Yes, I remember grade 7 and 8, for me it was called home economics. We made a bolero, skirt, and pants. That was 1971 and 1972! Nice to meet your mom. ✌️

[@SewingatMidnight]

Its too bad they don't offer it up in school anymore. I took cooking as an elective when I was in Jr. High, but that was it, there was no option for anything else. I think most students could use a course that includes basic sewing, basic cooking, household budgeting, cleaning, and quick home repairs. Something like that would have done myself and others a lot of good. Better to have a little knowledge of how to survive on your own before you get the trial by fire!

[@bvsmith42]

Great video....cherish the time with your mom...I wish my mom was still alive so I could.

[@SewingatMidnight]

I will Belinda, I promise!

[@SaturdaySewing]

It's nice meeting your Mom and hearing her talk about sewing. That jacket she made is absolutely perfect and looks so good. I can't wait to see the sewing room and the plant.

[@SewingatMidnight]

She is perfect!

[@karina543]

So nice to see your mom❤️ think you both are very lucky to have each other. Looking forward to see the sewing room.

[@SewingatMidnight]

Thank you Karina, I agree!

[@amaliacollins8408]

Thank you for sharing you mom with us. You are so blessed to have her in you life. Try to spend all the time you can with her!

[@SewingatMidnight]

She is currently trying to weasel her way into my guest bedroom, so keeping my distance is not an option, LOL. I actually am trying to convince her to move to AZ so we can hang out and she can make me salads.

[@heathermayfield4247]

Great to 'meet' you both, lovely makes from your Mum. I hope the new life/state is going well.

[@SewingatMidnight]

All is well, stay tuned!

[@SewNaturalDane]

HEYYYY Nikki's Mom! Such a pleasure to see her on screen. That MiMiG set is awesome! It's amazing, I think everyone's favorite pieces are the ones we truly take our time to complete and add extra touches. I don't like tracing either, but I do it A LOT, just kind of used to it now - LOL! You didn't take your mom's Thread Magazine did you - hahah! Love that top your mom is wearing. I can tell your mom is going to miss you, but I'm sure she'll be coming to visit you in Arizona soon!

[@SewingatMidnight]

She is already chomping at the bit to come out here, but I will be doing some traveling for the next few months so she has to wait. I did not steal her magazine, but I was very tempted, it was right there! I didn't even steal any of her fabric this time, although she had some really good stuff.

[@kellycardillo7640]

Awww. Your momma loves ya 🥰🥰🥰. Loved this. I wish I were more meticulous like her.

[@SewingatMidnight]

Me too Kelly, me too...

[@seestellysew8472]

I love your mom. Thanks for sharing.

[@SewingatMidnight]

She is fantastic! Thanks for watching us!

[@JayneMosier]

Love that you shared your mom! I am probably her age and I am so similar to her...I like the quiet so I can concentrate, am meticulous or maybe perfectionist to the point I refuse to be defeated by a project but I can’t just throw it out. Thank you so much, love watching your videos. Anxious to tour her sewing space and go shopping.

[@SewingatMidnight]

She and I could not have more different sewing philosophies, I think we tend to rub off on each other sometimes!

[@janicek6399]

You are very blessed in mom’s! I SO relate to Cindy’s meticulously sewing! So nice to meet your mom and I really look forward to seeing her basement space! Yes, I noticed your little white streak, but the top still looks very nice on you!

[@SewingatMidnight]

I didn't even realize until after I had it on! That's what I get for being lazy, mom would never do such a thing! I agree with you Janice, I got the best mom!

[@gaynorturner5370]

You two are hilarious :-) you should do more posts together. Nicki your comment about your mum feeding the plant (I think it was a plant) body parts etc made me crack up! Thank you for posting xx

[@SewingatMidnight]

Wait till you see it, then you will understand. Its Jurassic.

[@faithnichols7466]

This was adorable. I enjoyed watching you both. Neither one of my girls really sew. Although I have hope for them.

[@SewingatMidnight]

I waited until I was in my 30's to do it, so give them some time, you never know what will happen!

[@faithnichols7466]

@@SewingatMidnight Thanks! for the encouragement! I am from S E Michigan BTW!

[@conniebuchner4715]

You have the best Mom! I figure she must be a couple years older than me, because she said Jr. High. I graduated in 1978.💞💞💞

[@SewingatMidnight]

I agree Connie! Although, I went to Jr. High too, but I am a 2001 graduate. Maybe its a midwestern thing?

[@lauralongland6176]

Nicki, thank you for sharing your lovely Mum with us. It was very interesting to see how different the two of you are even though you have the same hobby

[@SewingatMidnight]

We have vastly different sewing styles, but we learn from each other and we have the same love for it!

[@TheSliverleaf]

So fun to "meet" your mom and tell her thank you for doing this. I know it's not something she likes but it was so awesome and I just loved it. Glad you guys had time together.

[@SewingatMidnight]

She had fun, I think... We will see if she decides to make any comments, she usually doesn't.

[@TheSliverleaf]

It's ok if she doesn't, still just thrilled she did this one and maybe she will do it again the next time you guys see each other. Your a lucky gal to have her as your mom ❤️ . How is your move coming along?

[@ppuyle1]

Oh, you guys are adorable! You are lucky to have a hobby in common with your mom! Terrific outfit Cindy!

[@SewingatMidnight]

I agree, we didn't always, but I am glad I finally got on board!

[@zamzamadb5980]

What a lovely video. It's so nice to see your mum in the vlog after hearing about her in previous ones. Looking forward to the sewing room tour!

[@SewingatMidnight]

You are in for a real treat!

[@lauriegreen-schillawski4481]

You two are awesome! Love your mom's sweater. That material is way cool. I laughed when you showed us the white stripe on your tunic, but when you sat back down, I couldn't even tell. Looking forward to the sewing room tour. Will you be taking us fabric shopping with you? That would be cool. Have a great day.

[@SewingatMidnight]

No, I didn't film while we were shopping, and we were going to do a haul video together, but we ran out of time. A lot of people wanted a piece of the Nikki action while I was home visiting. However, I do have a room tour of mom's sewing space which I think everyone will love, and I will show you my haul as soon as I have my space set up. Which will be in about a hundred years because I have to leave town for two weeks!

[@lauriegreen-schillawski4481]

@@SewingatMidnightI can understand everyone wanting to visit with you when you get home. I enjoy all of you videos, including the ones of your road trip. I look forward to the sewing room tours. Please don't make me wait a hundred years, I'll be a stone statue by then, lol. Safe travels and I hope you get to your new home soon. Have a great day Nikki!

[@heatherr9201]

Tell your mom thank you! So nice to meet her and for her sharing....

[@SewingatMidnight]

She should be thanking me for making her a famous sewing mom! JK, I am sure she is obsessively reading all the comments and will appreciate hearing this. Thanks Heather!

[@sarahmay3307]

Sweater is lovely. Nikki, your pattern matching is on a par with mine.

[@SewingatMidnight]

Lol, so disasterland then?

[@andreanneabel3464]

Hi Nicki and Cindy!!! Its so awesome to hear about your seamstress tag! Cindy your perspective on makes is so interesting and you are skilled!!!😍 it is so cool, you guys are so much fun😄

[@SewingatMidnight]

Glad you liked it Andreanne! Mom reads all the comments, so she will be happy to hear this!

[@myralorraine]

I love, love, love this tag! I agree with cherishing the time with your mom...if mine were here I’d love to do a tag with her too!

[@SewingatMidnight]

I would have loved to have my granny here as well, she used to tape the Nancy Zeiman show off PBS and rewatch them. I have a lot of memories of sitting in her sewing room with her looking at all of the little bits and pieces of sewing stuff she had and generally ruining any chance at sewing she got!

[@cheri101099]

So great to see you with mom, she looks so happy to have you. I really enjoyed this video.

[@SewingatMidnight]

She loves when I visit, and I love having coffee made for me every day!

Loved this video! Looking forward to her room tour x

[@SewingatMidnight]

Its going to knock your socks off!

Loved this video! Great job with the sweater - looks nice and comfy. Looking forward to the sewing room tour and the fabric haul :D

[@SewingatMidnight]

Well, you will definitely get the room tour, but we ran out of time to do the haul together, so you will have to settle for just me!

[@Shannonishere]

Great video I love your moms suit!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍

[@SewingatMidnight]

I wish I could have you guys come inspect that jacket up close, she did an amazing job on it!

[@danababbitt9290]

ok just when i thought your videos couldn't get any better; loved this one. Woohooo sewing class in the 60's,, woohoo Mom the perfectionist, woohoo and amen to a wonderful Mom-Daughter Duo!

Mom is something else, glad you guys loved her!

[@emmalouise4443]

Thank you For such a adorable vlog very nice to meet your mum and learn more after your vlog challenge you did together and hearing you speak about your mum :) no sewing space should look to neat it’s a creative haven that means mess of some kind lol looking forward to seeing your next vlog :)

[@SewingatMidnight]

You could eat off her floors in the rest of the house, but she tidied up that sewing room for you. I am the opposite, I have dishes in the sink and dog hair everywhere, but my sewing room stays neat as a pin! For me, I need to start with a clear space and a clear head.

[@lornanash453]

Loved the video and am looking forward to meeting the giant fern.

[@SewingatMidnight]

I think that fern eats small children.

We had a good time making it! Her sewing room tour will be up next Monday.

[@TaTyTa-b9i-sewing]

Great video, your mom is beautiful. My granddaughter said you look like Melissa McCarthy, the actress off Mike and Molly show.

[@SewingatMidnight]

I have heard that before!

[@susandt3856]

I cannot cut lettuce either! What a fun video. Great job from both of you. I love her top...beautiful. And yours looks great even without matching. I didn’t even notice.

[@SewingatMidnight]

I don't know what magic she has going on to make lettuce behave, but I really appreciate the result!

[@loriannpayne4483]

Wow - how very special to “meet” your mom Cindy and hear her sewing history! I saw the fabric from Haberman’s on page 20 of the new Threads Magazine. The sleeve cap section starts on page 72-75. Read Nikki, read! Tell your mom that I hang my PDF patterns on wooden pants hangers with a color picture on the front for easy reference! I’ll be delighted to see her sewing room too. It’s just precious to see you two together.

[@SewingatMidnight]

Loriann, I wont have to pass the word along, she stalks my comment section like a fiend! I didn't steal her magazine, but I will pick up a copy for myself. Haberman's was really nice, but sadly we didn't have time to film our goodies together, once I get myself situated here, I will show the jacket she gave me and our fabric finds!

[@loriannpayne4483]

Excellent! How far away are you from your mom's house now that you've moved?

[@sewlolita8845]

momma is so cute. I cant wait to see the sewing room lol. don't worry about not matching up the plaid and not having any white, it looks store bought ( they don't match their lines either haha)

[@SewingatMidnight]

I think this was one of the first fabrics I bought and I believe the problem was that I didn't buy enough to pattern match, either that or I was being lazy. Not sure!

Welcome to AZ! If you need a workroom to sew in until your new home is organized, let me volunteer mine. As long as you are not allergic to cats, I have 4 at the moment, please feel free to ‘get your sew on’ in my sewing space.

[@SewingatMidnight]

Cynthia, I just got mine set up, and I will hopefully film it today, sadly, I wont have time to sew anything in my new space till after I come back from a work trip. Life is cruel, but seriously I love cats! Perhaps a coffee date when I return?

Safe travels, sounds good!

[@christinemartin9449]

Hi from England. Lovely to meet you mum, thanks for this and hope that you had a great time with her. Now, I am not being nosey, but where are you up to in your trip to your new home?

[@SewingatMidnight]

Christine, I am in the new place! I just had to unpack everything because it was too hard for my boyfriend to figure out where all of our stuff goes. So, I finally got back to making some videos and sewing just the other day.

[@christinemartin9449]

@@SewingatMidnight On the up side of having to do all the unpacking, you know where everything is, or have a good idea! Perhaps I am a control freak. but I like to unpack and direct where things should go, yes, I am a control freak! Looking forward to watching your new videos, just have to find the time! I am always 4/5 days behind. I am retired, so don't think that you will have more time when you aren't working. I dont think that there are as many hours in the day when you retire!!!!

[@SewingatMidnight]

I do enjoy having the complete authority to put everything where it belongs according to my rules, but it was a lot of work! I also truly enjoy watching Tim try to find things and lose his mind because he has no idea where to find a spatula or a lid to a pot. I just watch him spiral out of control from the couch and laugh...

When I saw your moms sweater I quickly typed my question, had I waited until the video was finished I would have known the answer. I love how she matched the pattern. That’s the beauty of sewing, making your own haute couture clothing.

Of course! I think we say trash to convey a sense of "over it" to an item that isn't working out. I am near an H&M now, so mine will be going to their recycling bin.
