I am a one at a time -start to finish person. I enjoy seeing it come together and I rarely follow a pattern exactly, if at all. That means I am immersed in every step and sometimes changing things a long the way. For me, having more than one thing going would mean chaos in my sewing room. I want the zen of it. I have to admit that for the first time I just finished 2 quilts at the same time. I had a top done for a bed quilt but before I started the quilting, I put together a top for a baby quilt, then quilted them both. I did this because I only have one machine and didn't want to set it up for quilting, then stop in the middle to piece the baby quilt. So in my mind it was still one project at a time. That's just the way my mind works, I guess. I agree everyone is different and to each his own, but I just don't understand the thought process of having many projects going at once. That would stress me out because my real satisfaction is in the finished product. Maybe it boils down to where a person feels the most accomplishment or satisfaction. In seeing a project done, or in seeing the many possibilities of several projects at once.
