How many projects do you ladies have? Are there some that will probably never get finished, because the new quilt smell has worn off?

I think my goal for the rest of this year and next year is to get them finished. I think the only new projects I am going to allow myself, are the Doll Quilt swaps. We shall see how this goes
I have a large box labeled UFO's. I found I lost interest because I was working a lot of O.T. & could almost put one foot in front of the other. I'm retired sooo--- Now my excuse is -- My design wall covers up my stash & the box so I forget that it's there.
