Vote in the comments! My fate is in your hands.
* You may not recognize this one (March). I don't like the leprachaun on that one.

Hmm I think I'd go with the Apple Sampler or the Knot Garden. I must say, you are spoiled for choice!
BBD Flea Market Souvenir - this was a really fun stitch and fun to put together.
I say #6. Finish Anna's Bird. It is so pretty and you're almost there.

What to choose, what to choose. I was going for "Anna's Bird" . . . until I saw the HS "Folk Art Thread Keep." Please, oh please, oh please stitch this one. I passed up the chance to buy a similar HS project at an amazing sale price and have regretted it ever since. I'd love to live vicariously through your finish.
Of course, I am going to choose a mermaid, in fact, Theresa Layman's mermaid. Though the Mirabilia is also very nice, it has too many recent bad memories of frogging. Let that one sit for a while.
Anna's Bird...so close...and on black. It's a vicarious thing.
I vote for Anna's Bird too! But then again....... :)
I say Anna's Stocking. I love that one.
Can you really get into the mood to stitch what we vote for? I don't think I could do that. My grandma would say it's due to stubbornness.
I vote for Scared Silly. I haven't seen anyone finish it in awhile, and it's a pretty cool design.
tree of life window----don't know the pattern, but is it a Frank Lloyd Wright?
I think you should stitch on Anna's Bird, you made great progress on it. But then you should stitch what calls the loudest!!!
Tree of Life or St Basils. I think you should let the Rooster go...
Ooooh... power! =)
I love Apple Sampler first and then Scared Silly. You're so close on the sampler!
And then I'd pick up Anna's Bird. Or, since I have a hard time following rules, that would be the one that I'd work on whenever I have the need to do mindless stitching. It looks like you only have blocks of solid color left on it so it'd be good for doctor's offices, traveling, etc.
Good luck!!
I like the Majestic Rooster, but that puts me in the minority.
I think you should work on what is closest to a finish, and then you will get the fun of a happy dance and the joy of stitching on something new quite quickly!
What Nic said! :)
But if I HAD to choose, I'd pick either one of the Shepherd Bush stockings. Love them!!
Anna's Garden :)
French Marquoir.
I say the stocking, purely because I'm also going to be stitching a stocking in May.
I vote for Flea Market - I love that one.
I'm too lazy to work on my Knot Garden but I'd love to see you do it!
I would choose Tree of Life but maybe the tulip one would be finished more quickly.
Mary in Tennessee
I vote for Tree of Life - since it's been 2 years since you posted about it, I think it's been in time-out long enough.
I'm going with Boehringer because I'm curious to see it finished. His stuff doesn't come up too often and I have Hometown Sampler that I've been meaning to start.... ;)
1. Bent Creek Snowman
2. Knot Garden
3. Flea Market Souvenir
(By the way, I own 2 of these designs, and covet the the 3rd.)
Frank Lloyd Wright gets my vote, too. I really want to see a finish on that window. I've loved his designs for as long as I can remember. I have a stained glass reproduction on the Coonley playhouse window on my mantel.
Have you ever been out to Fallingwater? It's amazing in person. Photos just can't capture all the details.
I'm a big fan of the Apple Sampler--but it might be good to work on Anna's Bird while the weather is bright. All your WIP's look pretty--good luck!
You have such wonderful projects just waiting to be finished!Difficult decision but go with the project that has the least amount of work to do OR the one you really want to see completed. (I don't think it fits in either of those categories, but my personal fav is Flea Market Souvenir.)
Christmas elf!
I vote for Christmas Elf
My vote is for the Liz Turner Diehl 16th Century Knot Garden ... but I have an ulterior motive, since I have both the German Garden and the Summer Garden languishing in my stash and I would very much like to use you to shed my guilt vicariously ... those are expensive projects and while I know I will eventually get to them, the money I spent on the kits and the CATS classes that they came with does weigh on my conscience.
