sunrise450 great idea on the to go bag. I do that with my embroidered victorian crazy quilt blocks. And I also started with a small project. And I have to say that my list includes somethings that aren't strictly speaking ''UFOs." But I believe that the hostess/conductor keeps the quilt police off of the train.
And if it helps you finish I'm all for it. i joined last year even though I only had one quilt that really qualified as a UFO,...and I still have it, ugh.
