Need your help!

So, what is it I need your help with? I need help making a BIG decision! As you know I will be finishing "Howling at the Moon" very soon, possibly by this time next week you will have all seen the finished product! I am just filling in holes here and there! So it is very close to a finish!

But now I have to decide what I want to fill the hole in my rotation with (I use the term "rotation" lightly here!) I was thinking one of these 5. They are all in my stash, the first two are actually all kitted up and ready to go. So here they are!


#1- "In Blue"
#2- Day Surrendering to Night (Companion piece to In Blue)
#3- Gaze (You know how I LOVE wolves!)
#4- Home Tweet Home. A three piece set of birdhouses, which I have been thinking of lately as they are done in soft pastels which just screams "spring!" to me, so that is why I threw this one in.
#5- The Abby. This one is a WIP, I have about 4 or 5 more pages left to do on this one, it is also a Big Ole' 9-pager! HYou may remember it if you have read my blog for awhile.
OR! My 6th and last option......BUY something NEW! which I have my thoughts on that as well. There is a gorgeous piece by Kustom Krafts of orca whales and the northern lights that I have had my eye on for awhile that I may have to get. Even if I don't start it now, I may buy it anyway just as a reward for finishing "Howling"

So Please! Cast your votes in the comments! I can't wait to hear what your thoughts are on this!

I love The Abby. Of course i am very partial of birds and birdhouses.

given the time of the year, I would go for either 4 or 5. Maybe you can put the abbey in? you already stitched a lot of it, so it would be nice to get it finished (and then you can buy 2 new projects)

I vote for the annual and buying a new piece. Congrats on finishing such a large project. Darlene

I think #2 is amazing :)

Hi Lana, I think that The Abby and the birdhouses are fantastic. I vote for those (can we vote twice ;-) AND rewarding yourself with something new as well! (OK - can we vote 3 times!) Can't wait to see what YOU pick!! Mere

Denise said...

You can't do #2 until you've done In Blue. So, I say start with In Blue and work down the list. Of course, new stash is always great to have on hand. You should shop too!

I like all but the second one. The wolf and the first are my favorite. I have done the first one and it was a pretty easy and quick one to do.

Debby said...

You only have 5 things in your stash????? You're my hero!!!! LOL I think you should finish the Abbey; see how wonderful you feel with the finish of the wolves. But #2 is awesome as well. But you do need to build up your stash and catch up with the rest of the needlework world!

Vicki said...

My vote is for the Abbey - I love anything with houses or buildings in it! Congrats on your finish...

Minnie said...

I think that you should buy the new one and stitch The Abby. Then when you get tired of The Abby again you can start the new one.

Cath said...

It would have to be the wolf one for me , love it .X

Blu said...

Day Surrendering to Night! That is such a gorgeous piece.

Caitlin @ Naughts Cross Stitches said...

I would go with the WIP so that you can hopefully get it done!

Lana said...

Debby- OOOOH NNNOOOO, that is NOT at all what is just in my stash, these are all just pieces I pulled from my stash, I have a 4 drawer plastic caddie that is almost as tall as me FULL And another HUGE rubbermate tub full too! =)
