 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/

+++  2026 is the year of  "more of" +++

Sewing / Cooking / Junk Journaling / Beads / Wool / Felt / Gardening / Writing / Scrapbooking / Cross stitching / Watercolor

More cross stitching

La dame à la licorne - le toucher

More beads

Pyramides en perles de rocaille pour le JJ

More gardening

Lily of the valley is my birthday flower, DD2 offered me some in a small pot.

I want to try (I've always failed to grow them in my garden) to keep them alive in a bigger gardening pot. I found eleven sprigs with roots!

Fingers crossed (specially green thumb), I hope they'll survive.

Repiquage de brins de muguet

We have finally found a big gardener not far from home where I have bought more climbing plants for my project.

A passionflower, a schisandre     

and with the clematis I moved from the left side of the arch

where is now a bignone

I have now six plants all around the trunk

on the three I planted in 2024 only two are ok

we'll see if the warm weather gives a chance

to the other one to survive the last frosts

More cooking (without cooking)

Here is the hedgehog I made for friends

Hérisson d'apéro

More junk journaling and paper crafting

Carte d'anniversaire tasses

Page Delta du Nil du JJ

More crochet and knitting

Echarpes en laine angora des P'tits bergers

The red scarf is finished and the blue one much longer as I'm near to finish the first ball of wool but no picture.

I'm testing some small eight petals flowers in chain stitch between the big ones and reorganizing them all together.

More sewing and felt

I'll only speak about felt because I broke again my sewing machine so my summer dress is half sewed. 

For Soline cooking I have made radishes and I plan to make melon and corn.

More watercolors to see on my Tour de France 7

The Tour has started on May the 18th for 17 weeks and this afternoon we'll reach the second stage. First post every Monday and more clues every Thursday.

May topic: Give us five projects in your stash right now that you’d really love to start – and why you haven’t yet.

First, the reasons : already too many WIPs, issues with the sewing machine, some new osteoarthritis, working slower than ever...  

- Knitting  /  mittens 

- Crochet   /  funny glasses holder, 

- Sewing  /  patchwork cats-dogs covers

- Writing  /  write a novel (on a writing platform, something I have no idea how its works)

- Nook book /  a surprise gift I haven't started because I know I must work on it very regularly like when you build a model and have a safe place where you keep it.
