    here a UFO , there a UFO, everwhere a UFO

    I thought I had a few UFOs . Then I started to sort through my sewing stuff and I found 18 UFOs plus 8 sewing repairs to do! Anyone else in this mess. So where do I start!?

    Oh my gosh, your as bad as me! LOL I would start with the one that is the closest to being done. That way you won't feel so over welmed and give up. You can do this girl!! Im rooting for you!

    That's a good idea to start with the one that is closest to being done. I have around 60 or so myself. I know I won't get them all done this year cause some of them have been ideas in my head and have all the fabrics - etc. but not even started yet. I list them on a numbered list. Whatever number is pulled, that's the one I work on. For instance, this month I am working on a quilt that I made the top about 13 or so years ago. I hope to have it completely finished by the end of March. Then on to the next one and so on ....

    Just pick the one that you feel most like working on. Make it fun and not a chore to finish them. Remember...most of the work is already done. You'll get through them quickly.
    enjoy your life...it's the only one you have!!!

    I like the idea of putting a number on them and choosing that way..it would end the waiting for it to jump out of the bin at me!
