Oh my yes I do this all the time....I just love to plan, cut and piece, not so much baste and, oh my aching back, quilt. I usually piece until I have a bin full of tops and then do nothing else until they are finished and stored up on the pile o quilts upstairs. When my family comes to visit, they get to go through the pile and pick something for themselves. I usually get around two dozen quilts, large and small done in a year. So plow through the tops, get them done, done and done and they you can happily piece your tops in peace...
