    I usually have a 'main' project and sneak in a couple of other blocks when I need a break. I love the bright colors in your block and the shading in the fabric will help hide any imperfections.

    Love your colorful block. I always have several projects going. My attention span is about as wide a piece of thread.

    Oh, yeah. Especially between quilting on my DSM and piecing then paper piecing.
    Think it keeps each project fresh. I'll do a few days of one and then do a few days with another.

    From what's been posted, it seems most of us have moe than one project going at a time.

    I usually have several projects going at the same time, unless, like now, I have a project that I want to make sure to complete at a certain time. I have a new grandbaby coming in 2 months, so I am pretty much working on the baby quilt exclusively until I get it done. I don't want the baby to be 4 years old before I get her baby quilt done!

    I love that block!!! Yes you can have more than one project going at the same time. I always do and eventually, everything gets finished. I get bored working on the same thing start to finish.

    I too don't have a very large attention span. That's why I like working on sampler (type) quilts, with all different blocks, because then each block is different. I find that I can stick to one project when the blocks are varied enough.

    I never used to have that problem till this winter. Now I've got so much that I want to do. I have a very large one waiting to be quilted on the long arm. I'm doing a FLoral alphabet, oodles of applique and Drafting for a Dear Jane and I wanna start a OBW. I hunt for the perfect fabtic. Must be the weather!!!?
