When I started out quilting about 3 years ago I wouldn't start a new top until I finished the one I was working on. But, that didn't last long. Now I have numerous ones in the works. I have English Paper Piecing for traveling, a quilt that needs applique on the borders (hand work at night) and several tops in the making. If I get bored with one, I go to another. I found my work turns out better now since I'm not hurrying to get the current quilt done so I can move on. Now I have choices to fit my mood and love it!
