Gee, it's so hard to suggest anything because, well, I find stitching, especially for my home, so personal. It depends on what you like - and what you will love looking at for months to come.

Have you done a bit of searching around online to get some ideas ?

Have a look through the SAL's and see if there is a style that appeals to you.
Welcome to the forum too.

Hello and welcome

It's quite hard to suggest anything without ideas of preferences. You could try looking through something like the Lanarte catalogue which often has groups in it if you particularly want a matched group. There's so much that can be done though - for example you could do a pair and for the third do a smaller piece focussing on a particular detail common to the pair. Or you could pick a theme - if you picked oriental you could do two oriental flowers and a character.

Welcome to the forum! How about a triptych of some sort? You know, a picture in three parts. I seem to remember one with a pond and dragonflies, but there are bound to be others!

Hello and welcome. I am not sure what to suggest as it really depends on your taste. I would personally have HAED's on my walls!

Hello and welcome to the forum. I really do not know what to suggest with knowing what designs you like but what about something containing flowers?
