When I first started quilting I vowed (sort of) to not start on another project until I had the one I was working on finished. The lady that got me into machine quilting had lots of tops made but they just hung around like that....tops only. My thought was why make tops if you never complete them. I have had to put aside something I'm working on if I needed to whip out a baby quilt or wedding gift in the middle of my incomplete project. Right now I have only one WIP which is blocks for a king size quilt for our bed. I do put that on the back burner since it's been going on for about 3 years now. It is my 2019 goal to get it finished this year but if a gift is needed in the meantime I will set it aside for making the gift.
