Hi Blogger Friends. I DID IT. I finished stitching page 2 on the Stable. Only about 9,000 stitches left. I should be done by April 1, 2014. I started it April 1, 2013. I stitched one strand of creamy by his tail. I also did the two signs and roses and leaves. Those 8 roses were start and stop stitching again and took me forever. I don't want to stop working on this one.
Now I need your help. This Thursday is my 21st anniversary and this Saturday is my __th birthday. I have decided to treat myself to two new starts. A year older means I can't decide which two to start. Here are my choices.
Bothy Threads cut thru Steam Train
Bothy Threads cut thru Cottage
99 Bottles by Ink Circles
Splish Splash by Diane Arthurs
Please leave me a comment on this post only and vote for your 2 favorites. I will start one on Saturday and one on Sunday. Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it.
Thanks for looking. Linda

The roses in the Stable look so pretty! I see what you mean about stop and start, changing the colors so often, but that's what makes them so pretty! That's a great goal of finishing exactly a year later on April 1.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! And many more even if you have stopped counting!
Your stables is really shaping up nicely! Roses are looking beautiful.
I love Splish Splash! Adorable. The Bothy cottage looks interesting. But, splash is my favorite!
Your stable is coming along! I vote for Steam Train and Splish Splash. Happy Anniversary and Happy Birthday!
Steam Train and Splish Splash are my votes. Stable is looking pretty good!
I vote for 99 bottles because it's so different from the other things you are stitching!
Dear Linda, happy birthday and happy anniversary! Did your husband came as a birthday gift? Just kidding.
Your progress is awesome and I think your two new starts should be 1) the train and 2) the bottles. Of course you can start whatever you like.
Happy anniversary and happy birthday! Your stable looks great! I vote for the steam train and 99 Bottles. Fun fun!
Hi Linda, That stable is looking good. Love it. Lots of work, but well worth it (I think).
Ok! Let me see…Cottage for your Anniversary because you established a home with your DH and Steam Train for your Birthday because that is a journey…you made many stops along the way (in your life).
Those are my two picks. Hope you have a wonderful Anniversary and Birthday too.
Enjoy!
Jackie

I vote for Steam Train (that little duck swimming inside the train is too funny) and Splish Splash.
Hi Linda,

I like the train and splish splash ones. Since in stable you have already done cottage type so doing other cottage will be a similar feeling.
Gorgeous progress on the stable.
Happy Anniversary and Happy Birthday. I vote for the cottage.
