New Cross Stitch Patterns?

I received several nice comments on yesterdays post regarding my possibility of designing a few new cross stitch patterns.  I'm really liking primitive cross stitch these days but wanted to ask for you opinions. 

If I were to do this, what would you like to see in the way of new patterns?  Please leave your comments.  I'm eager to hear from you.

In the meantime, this is one of my re-released cross stitch designs.  Aria For Christmas is available here.
