I am new to quilting & I have 3 projects going already and can't wait to start another one. I have found already that this helps me to keep focused by switching from one to the other. Anyway it seems to work for me so far. Does anyone else find that doing more than one at a time help them??

Sounds like a good plan to me...and here I was just calling all my projects UFO's! lol Now I can justify having several going at once!

I keep one or two going at a time. But I am an odd bird. I have a very small stash, mostly remnants. I know, very strange for a quilter!!!

I always have more than one project around. Sometimes I feel like doing a different part, cutting, pieceing, quilting. But it also leads to UFO's. The new project always has an allure to me also.

Nope. I lose focus and don't get ANYTHING done! lol Right now I have two quilts on the go - a large applique project and an Irish Chain lap quilt...and I keep losing my mojo and doing random little projects because I don't have the focus to do either!

I usually have at least 2 going at a time and it so much fun that I now have a bunch of UFO cross stitch projects because I would rather be quilting

Welcome! I usually have several going. For some reason, I like to work on more than one at a time.
