Willy wagtail and lupins

 I seemed to have switched crafts again. Which unfortunately adds fuel to my urge to never throw anything away. The willy wagtail chart is from 2011. I first started it on 28ct evenweave over one stitch. It was almost impossible to see, and super easy to make mistakes. I started again on 14ct aida, and it has been going very well.




















I've also been working on a kit I bought as a souvenir in Prince Edward Island. Was that 2008? I loved the lupins, almost as much as I love willy wagtails. I started it ages ago, but I made a mistake down in the leaves, which meant everything was off by one stitch. At the time I gave up because I couldn't work out where I'd made a mistake to go back and fix it. When I took it up again this summer, I just fudged that bit.
