I have also trying to decide which one I want to start this month to join Nicola's Scarlet Letter challenge and to work on throughout the next year.....but I think I have made my choice. I will start with Dorothy Walpole as that is my favorite. Here she is with the fabric I bought, 36ct linen in the color Flax. I will probably use DMC cottons. I would LOVE to try the AVAS silks, but just can't afford that right now. I think it will look gorgeous no matter what threads I choose.
Here it is in more of a close up
I hope to begin putting in the first stitches this weekend.

Can't wait to see the start!
Looks like you have lots of work ahead. Dorothy is my first SL to attempt.
I am currently stitching SDW sampler in a SAL with Nicola and some other ladies, Dorothy will be next up for me, love the colours.
I am stitching Blue Ribbon and SDW sampler on 36ct Edinburgh linen in flax and it has been a lovely fabric to work with.
Enjoy Nikki, it is going to be amazing.
Looks like a wonderful project you have lined up! :)
Have fun stitching,
Merry Christmas to you!
