UFOs or WIPs, which is which??
 

I don't understand the difference between a WIP & a UFO...
please help me!!

In 'my' world -

A UFO (unfinished object) has gone into a box somewhere and hasn't even been looked at in weeks (years?)

A WIP (work in progress) is something that is actually being worked on and will probably be finished in a reasonable length of time.

If it's started but you haven't worked on it 'in a while' it's a UFO, especially if you've started another project. If you are actively working on it, it's a WIP. The amount of time allotted to 'in a while' is up to you. If you are a slow quilter, it might not be worked on for a month or more, but it's still a WIP. Clear as mud?

That would be my understanding. Now to get those UFOs out of the box and dusted off.

Actually, I prefer working on my Phd.....Projects half done!

I may have to steal that one!! Lol

PhD - Piled Higher and Deeper - was my first 'definition' of PhD

I like the PhD, both definitions. That goes along with the PIGS, Projects In Grocery Sacks. Guess I have PIGS that are PhDs.

I definitely am going to borrow that one for a long time. I have lots of PHDs.

I've never heard of PHDs or PIGS before. LOL!:p
