Hoping for a June finish

I'm happy to say that I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel on the current model and am hoping that I'll be able to finish it by the end of this month. I will be sad to send it off, but also relieved and ready to spend a bit of time starting a new Amy Bruecken 7-part SAL called A Little Batty:

I received the first two charts this past weekend and I have floss and fabric ready so now I just need to free up some Qsnaps and some time.

The three other SALs I'm currently doing are still going well; Cecilia Votta's seasonal SAL is now halfway through and ready to move into summer:

And I was right (for once!) that the partial leg in part 5 was from a little girl on a swing.

The Dragon's Blood Mandala has had two more parts released since my last post and I finished those up this past weekend:

We've reached the center and since it's a mandala I could technically stitch the rest by reversing previous parts, but that would be WAY too much work so I'll continue to do one part every two weeks.

The Rooky Woods has two more parts remaining, so we'll get one this Thursday and then in two weeks we'll be done (so that'll free up those Qsnaps I need for A Little Batty!):

The last Mirabilia model I stitched should be released on the 15th this month, so I'll probably post that next Wednesday--stay tuned...

Hope everyone has a great stitchy week!
