    I have been working on my UFOs since New Years Day and am making progress. But I really want to start a new one. Soon! I hate a stack of UFOs starring at me.

    I am in the same boat as you are. I bought a rotating(?) cutting mat before Christmas and then I got a Accqgo baby for Christmas and haven't used either of them yet.

    Good for you. Sometimes we need to get something just for us. Now pick a fabric and cut, cut and cut some more.

    I think we all go through that at one time or another. I had wanted to start another top but caught a cold instead..even picking up a cutter seems a chore right now :(
    Hopefully we will all get back in "the groove" :)

    Here is an answer from a seperate post but fits the bill....

    oh ... yes. that's among the most annoying of the quiltitus virus strains.

    you have quiltitus nofinishus

    then there are:
    quiltitus buytoomuchifus
    quiltitus neverstarticus
    - often brought on by quiltitus can'tmakeupmymindwhichprojecttopickifus ... leading invariably to quiltitus juststareatallthatfabricus

    none of those are as bad, however, as
    -quiltitus ranoutofthefabricbeforethequiltwasdoneicus
    -quiltitus can'tfindTHEoneremainingfabricIneedforthisprojecti fus

    the one that will nearly kill the average quilter?

    quiltitus imissedthehalfoffsalebyonedayicus!

    Just make a pot of coffee (or tea) and go break in that new cutter and mat!!!! You'll feel better.

    I too have got a few UFOs but so far am getting through them . I finish one UFO then do a new project, finish that then another UFO and so on . At the moment ti is working , for how long that is the question. Time will tell.
