I am like NJ Quilter. I have several projects going at one time. One that I can hand quilt in the evening. Another that I am cutting, another that is being machine quilted. Another on the floor that I am working on the binding. Just went to the local quilt shop and got the material to start the next one after the one that I have at the LA back which I will then hand bind it!! I work on them in tandem and whatever I feel like that day or hour. I can work on a quilt at the drop of a hat or go for a walk or shopping or calling the grandchild and/or my mother. I just "love" being retired ;-)
