The full flower design (purple and blue) I got free as I bought the other two full designs pictured (@ 10% off) and they were doing a buy 2 get 1 free offer.

The purple and teal bookmark is February's freebie and the cream flower was January's freebie.

Below is the link to this month's freebie (which I really like):
February Free Fractal

I would go with option 2 but change the order and put the two spirals at the end and the others in the centre.

I love what you've done so far! Well done!!! I like option 1 if you are still deciding. And I love the new flower fractals that you got! I missed the January one, but managed to get the February one!

So these are the final decisions:

To fill the fourth spot on the fabric with the other three fractals I've already stitched, a section out of Fractal 54 (Option 1) it matches rather than contrasts with the others:

Stitched by itself as a full fractal - Fractal 199:

Stitched as a combo of three, a section out of Fractal 253, Fractal 255 bookmark and Fractal 257 bookmark:

So in deciding on what to do for the last one I've added:
Fractal 199: 400 x 300 = 120,000 stitches
3 fractal combo: 3 x 75 x 200 = 45,000 stitches

So another 165,000 stitches! :shock:

Great choice. And I love that you are doing the flowery ones too. I have downloaded the freebies, don't suppose I will ever do them but they are lovely.
