30 Day Challenges Day 6 - What Do I Start Next? - White Wolves Update

I did it!! All the cross stitch on White Wolves is complete! I'm so excited about it, and it feels like such a huge relief. The refrain from Pirates of Penzance keeps running through my head: "Oh joy unbounded! Oh sweet relief! Oh rapture unexampled!" :)

And here it is:

And for my list, I plan to celebrate finishing this piece and being 1/3 of the way through my Crazy January Challenge by starting a new project. Here are the 10 I'll choose from:

1. Blackwork Box of Delights by Elizabeth Almond

2. Fleur de Lys by Brodeuse Bressane

3. Though  She Be But Little, She is Fierce by Zindagi Designs

4. Office Sweet Office by Zindagi Designs

5. Remember You Are Braver Than You Believe by Zindagi Designs

6. Life on the Line

7. Flowers of the Month by EMS Cross Stitch Design

8. Faerie Mother by Joan Elliott

9. Autumn Stained Glass by Ursula Michael

10. Acorn Scissor Keep

I have a good idea which one I'll start, but I'm going to have a contest. If you can guess which one I'm going to start I'll send you a prize. The first one to guess correctly will win and you have until May 27, 2015 at 12:00am. The prize will likely involve threads and maybe a chart or 2 I haven't decided yet. :)

Good luck and happy stitching!

    1. It's such a relief, as if a weight is off my shoulders. I didn't realize the weight was there until I put the last cross stitch in.

    2. I'd like to see each month of the flowers get stitched up but I am thinking that you may go with the Nora Corbett letter for your DD...oh! and i ended up looking at all the Nora Corbett designs! I like the Spring garden pixies and the Bewitched pixies.

    1. Thank you! One more day of back stitch should finish it entirely. #6 is for a good friend, good luck!

  12. Mmmmmm great list, I've stitched/am stitching two of them, so for purely selfish reasons will say #2 as I'd love to see someone stitching it again! All new starts are awesome though which ever you choose!
