Default UFO's, the laugh is on me.

Oops, I only thought that I was good about not having UFO's. This morning I went to clean and straighten my sewing room, this time I had a notebook right beside me. As I came across fabric collections, unused purchased patterns, unused special rulers and such, I wrote them down. I have 27 projects to finish, start and organize.

Well, at least you have them listed in a note book to help you begin. I think I need to put mine in a list to help get them done.

I have a list, it hasn't helped me, yet.

Uh-oh, if having unused fabric and patterns constitutes a UFO then I'm in trouble. I don't consider it a UFO until I've started cutting it out. Until then the fabric isn't really designated for anything other than stash, and rulers are just tools.

I made a list, more than once. It has not helped me either. And....I just finished another top.

dunster, I like your attitude. The idea of making a list like toverly's really frightens me.

I'm with dunster! It is "stash with a plan" until the cutting begins... LOL

Oh dear and you thought you were being good! But not as bad as me. Even though I also don't consider it a UFO until it's cut out as far as having patterns and fabric, I bet I have at least 50 kits that are languishing in plastic totes. Why am I still buying things. I ought to be ashamed!
