I have about 15, I think. At the beginning of this year I signed up for a UFO challenge, and it's inspired me to finish 4 or 5 projects. The only problem is that I started a further three. :oops:

I joined my guild two years ago. To date I have finished one top for a charity quilt because I said I would. I have two tops requiring borders. I have table topper ready to handquilt.

At this time I am honing my rotary cutter skills. My seam allowances have gotten better since I purchased the 1/4" foot for my 301. I am also working on lining up my seams. Then it will be time to master borders and finishing my projects.

I jumped into quilting with both feet, the same way I do everything. Then reality hit and I knew it did not matter how many quilts the others completed, I had start at the beginning and learn one skill at a time. I am making progress.

I have no UFO's, only WIP's. By the way, I am very good at buying fabric -- the most important skill was the first learned. My stash is coming along nicely.

Quilting like everything else worth doing is a journey.

I HAD 7 quilts that needed to be quilted, so I boxed them up and shipped them to my quilter(sister) not real happy to get 7 at once now I have them back and have to bind them. I have 2 done and five to go. As far as I can remember(which isn't far)that is all I have unfinished, I think.

I'm not sure how many UFO's I have, I keep finding more hidden in by bins and closet. I have to just resign myself that I am not a quilter but a "topper" LOL

My son in law gave me a banner which reads "Queen of the Unfinished Projects".

Mine are all WIPs. Whoever suggested you learn to finish what you start should learn that it's not necessary to share her every thought. Since words cannot be taken back, the unkind thoughts are best left unsaid.
