WASN'T ON MY RADAR

But it's on my frame.  You already know I'm a fickle hooker, but this pattern choice shocked even me.  And I'm having fun using up more wool worms.  This is what it looks like now.
The only wool I've cut so far are the wools shown below purchased from Rebecca Erb.  One of plaid is off the bolt color and the other was overdyed.  Oh, and have cut various primitive black wool as I go thru that like crazy for most rugs.  Will never have a problem with black wool worms building up, that's for sure.  
In case you want to see the 1920 original antique from which I drew my adaptation, it is below.
You will notice I did not include the dark stripes on each end of the rug.  Thought it was distracting and wondered why the original hooker included them in the first place.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day and finds something to smile about.  Afterall, happiness must be grown in one's own garden.
