Stitching

The pattern for the Butterfly fob that I have been working on calls for this complicated vine/leaf pattern. I tried it three times and couldn't manage the correct counting of stitches so I gave up and did it my way. The fob is so tiny that no one (except you and me) will ever know that I didn't follow the pattern. Here is a closeup (sorry for the dark picture). Mine will be unique because of all the mistakes - or should I call them "stitcher's concept"?
Now to start the back of the fob, which is totally different from the front. There will be less of those eyelet stitches and more regular cross-stitch. Yeah!!!!!
