I always have several going at once and then one will rise to the top to be finished ASAP. There is also a pile of finished tops that are awaiting quilting, a backing or what ever. From time to time I whittle the projects down to 3 or 4 but then another wonderful quilt pattern just demands my time or a new baby is announced and so on. I want to leave a legacy for my family and it may just be unfinished quilts. Tee-Hee!
