I have always been a 1 project quilter. I would not start another project till I got the first one done, and, Yes, I have always done this. But, since I started following the advice and info on this board, I found out that most quilters really do have more than one project going, and now I have done it also. i started a quilt about 10 days ago, for my daughter, and then I got a call from friends that their baby girl had been born so I got that one going, and then yesterday, i got the quilt from Downey "Quilts for Kids" SO, 3 WsIP because now I know that it is ok. And I will get all of them done.

That is the way I have always quilted, and yes I get them done, too. It's nice being an adult--then you are "allowed" to do some things maybe you didn't do before...lol

I have just today posted a similar reply elsewhere on QB to say that prior to joining QB I used to be a one project quilter, but not any more!!!!!!!!!

UFO = Unfinished Object
WOF = Width of Fabric

LOL I am a one at a time quilter myself...but I do have two going on at the moment. One is a large appliqued quilt for my husband...I can only handle so much of working on that one before I NEED to put it aside. The other one is a D9P for my daughter, and I really need to get my buns in gear on it because I just ordered fabric for a customer quilt. I don't want to put DD's on the back burner, so I need to FINISH IT!

I'm a little embarrassed to say....I'm a one at a time quilter. I just have to finish one before starting another. But, I have only made three and am on my fourth. My dream is to be a REAL quilter one day and have 3 or 4 going at one time.
