    I have had 2 going at the same time, but, no more. I would get too distracted from any more

    I always do it that way. I get bored working on the same block over and over. I usually do a block at a time, or set some other logical goal before moving on to something new. I have four work stations set up on my ping pong table with rulers and cutters at each. Someone suggested working for an hour before moving on and I think I might try that.

    I have more than one going most of the time. I have a short attention span and this keeps me interested.

    I always have multiple projects in the works. When I get frustrated on on, switch to the other. Many times I end up finishing several at a time.

    It's easier to have a bunch of different projects. I might feel like doing some fussy cutting while watching/listening to TV or hand doing my GFG in the car on a trip or piecing on the machine or today I just wanted mindless so I started doing some crumb blocks. Works for me!
