Oh my! Here we go again. When I have to count it makes me crazy. :?
I hope my DH doesn't see this! :wink:

1. Fun and Done -Pattern, template and all fabric.

2. Patchwork Party Quilt from last year -All patterns, fabric and finishing kit.

3. 9 Patch Pizzaz -I have some beautiful Asian fabric for this and layout designed.

4. Pattern and all fabric for a quilt my DH fell in love with at a shop hop.

5. Fabric for lap quilt for oldest DGD and top designed.

6. Fabric for lap quilt for DGS and top designed.

7. Fabric for lap quilt for youngest DGD and top designed.

I had 5, 6 and 7 grouped together and figured I'd get yelled at so I separated them. :wink:

8. A kit for an "A-Mazing" wallhanging.

9. Hunter's Star wallhanging -All fabric, pattern and ruler.

10. All Fabric for my Chicken quilt -6 designs drawn, 1 made. I had to stop to make my DD #1 and future SIL's couple's shower gift. Good thing the wedding gift can wait till after the wedding. :roll: It will have their wedding picture as the center.

11. "Mini Bow Tucks" handbag -pattern and fabric for my DS #2.

12. "Mini Bow Tucks" handbag -pattern and fabric for my DD #3.

13. "Mini Bow Tucks" handbag -pattern and fabric for myself!

14. "Gracie Handbag" -pattern and material for my DS #2.

15. "Gracie Handbag" -pattern and material for my DD #3.

16. "Gracie Handbag" -pattern and material for myself!

17. "City Bag" -pattern and material for myself for work.

Ok, so my family has a handbag thing. :oops: The only reason these are hanging out is because I made 10 "Gracie Bags" for Christmas presents last year and I was burned out. I got good though I could knock out 2 a day toward the end! :lol: Too bad they all liked them so much they want more in different fabrics!

18. "Rings that Bind" wallhanging for my DD #1.

19. "Rings that Bind" wallhanging for myself!

Ok, I looked around because I was just sure I could make an even 20 :oops:

*Drum Roll*

20. Table Runner -pattern and fabric for my DM.

Of course the ones for family members will get made long before the ones for myself, which is why many of these are still waiting.

Geeze I am so shocked at how many I start and haven't finished yet, I am embarrassed. But then I read what you all have said and I know I am not alone.

If I don't count the handbags seeing as they are not really "quilts" :D I only have lucky 13 sitting around waiting. That sounds better! :wink:

Well, I'm thinking about making a lot of quilts -- and I probably have enough fabric in my stash to make a couple hundred or so without going to the LQS! I don't consider them a WIP until I actually get them cut out.... :roll: :roll:
Ditto what sewjoyce said. Lots of fabrics, some I have ideas for.... I have lots of "groups" with no patterns. I also currently have 5 WIP's and probably a dozen or more UFO's. A project doesn't become a UFO in my house until it has sat, unworked on for more than 6 mos. 2 of my WIPs were former UFO's that just need a little more quilting. I have finished off several UFO's since the beginning of the year.

Actually I count something as a WIP when I actually start it also...so actually the chicken quilt is not a "fabric sitting around waiting for something to happen to it." I am down to 12 :wink: I really can't see where else I can subtract some of these unless I start cutting immediately!
