 WIPOCALYPSE 04/25...

Time to share with Melissa and the Wipocalypse family the projects we want to complete before the end of the world.

On FB or  https://measi.net/

+++ Point de croix / More cross stitching!

Updates of my two WIP : Lady and the Unicorn / Christmas carol

J'avance doucement sur le feuillage près de la licorne ainsi que sur le bas de la jupe.

More crochet/knitting

I have tested the Nanny squares for slippers but the stitch is too loose and I'll have to uncrochet and begin again.

I have also started some small squares for a top or the collar for a summer dress.

Plus de crochet...    mon premier essai de chausson en carrés crochetés est plutôt raté, le point est trop lâche et les carrés trop grands. Donc à tricoter !

More scrap/JJ  -  Plus de cartonnage - Junk Journal

Five birthday cards are in progress...   One for Pierre 2nd birthday, a wardrobe for DD1, a vintage record player for a friend, a "find the hidden candles" for Capucine and two new themes (a spiral and a cooking theme) for a friend and Timothé.

Here some cutting for the front of a house.

 A new post about the Junk Journal next Friday.

The baby birth album :

Date and name have been added and some small envelopes

Côté papiers et ciseaux, j'ai presque terminé l'album de naissance et j'avance également sur les cinq prochaines cartes d'anniversaire.

Pliages et découpages également dans le Junk Journal on en reparle jeudi prochain.

More gardening  /  Plus de jardinage

With some sun's rays in the garden, I mostly weed the flowers beds.

Good news, my anemones are out of ground but nothing from the seeds we sowed with Capucine.

Climbing plants are ok, I'm trying to use a dead shrub as a stake for plantes.

ancolies - colombines   and  euphorbes

The question of the month is about fabric

I haven't bought big pieces of fabric -linen or aïda- recently, actually I'm working on a kit so the fabric was given with the pattern, a lovely burgundy aïda 7 which means I can't stitch without the help of a magnifying lamp! I'm also stitching on perforated paper -with some troubles when it's with a metallic thread.

I hope I'll find new ideas to use some colored linen in my stash.

I do have bought last year some small pieces of Jobelan 12 printed fabric online from Filanthrope Broderie, I'll to find the perfect pattern to stitch on.
