I'm one of those people who has many projects going at once. It's because, sometimes I feel like cutting sometime I feel like quilting, sometimes sewing. So this way I can do what I feel like doing. But if I do get a few things piled up, then I may spend a couple days finishing up what I've done because I already have a list in my head of a million other things I want to do. I do make small quilts so that's helpful. If you are working on something big, just do a little something then go back to the big project. Keeps you fresh. :)
