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 :wave:

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! :D

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?
