Default UFOs and WIPs

Since I joined this forum I have read with interest posts about UFOs and WIPs. There have been a number recently where quilters have set themselves the New Year challenge of completing their UFOs.

My sewing is very low-key. I buy the fabric and make the quilt, then it goes to whoever I have made it for. I don’t have the space or need to be working on more than one project.

But ... is it more practical to have a number of quilts on the go at the same time? Do experienced quilters make a number of tops, accumulate UFOs, then quilt them and bind them all?

Please don’t think that I’m being sarcastic here, I’m genuinely interested in why one person would want to have a number of projects on the go at the same time. Are there advantages in doing this?

(BTW - I do have a UFO - it’s a sampler wall hanging. I started it then realised I was not experienced enough to make it!)
