we know the world can be tough sometimes. So we'd like to take a moment to share one good thing happening in the world today. Last week we introduced you to Julia. She's making dresses from her grandma's fashion sketches from the 19 forties. Well today the news caught up with Julia to find out how she's doing and how this project is coming along. But first I want to recap you on what's going on. So julie, please grandma dropped out of fashion school in the 19 forties but kept her designs in her home all these years. During the pandemic lockdown, Julia rediscovered the sketches and decided to try and make the dresses and mind you, she didn't have any sewing or fashion experience and the internet is just absolutely loving her effort these dresses, Julia records her grandmother's reaction to each finished product and she shares this special moment on social media. She posted one video this week that got more than five million views, Julia tells cheddar she didn't expect this kind of reaction and really just wanted to honor her grandmother. She's looked up to her her entire life. This is just grandma and I having a good time. We enjoy filming, we enjoy doing these videos and I think it encourages people to maybe connect with their family members or take up a new hobby, learn how to repurpose things because they do a lot of thrift ng and repurposing content. So I hope it just makes people feel good and grandma and I have a great time doing it Julia also says, seeing her grandmother's face light up over the internet response makes all of her hard work just worth it. She wants to inspire other people to bond with their family members. It feels amazing to be able to connect with her over something like this. I love, I've always loved my grandma, she's always been my idol growing up, some people idolize celebrities for me, it has always been my grandma, she's always been such a superstar, so to make her proud in this way and to get to connect with her in this way is just such a rewarding feeling and I absolutely love doing it.
