I'm not too bogged down with UFOs. I have one. I am, by nature, a finisher. The only things waiting for me are BOMs.

I have at least 12,... going back to the late 90's, I would have more , but one day maybe 8 years ago, I sent a few UFOs to the 2nd hand store, and wished them a good life with some one else.

My husband an I full time in our RV, so I'm limited on storage space. I try to buy just what I need for a project. I also like to finish what I start, now. The pictures you all have up are so beautiful, I didn't take many pictures of my quilts, wish I had.

I only have 1 and 1 to go to the LA but I didnt intend on getting either done before the holidays. NOW I have about 10 "want to start projects" on my list. I find that if I make myself finish one before I start another they tend to get finished. I just dont know what I want to start with first on my list....

I try to stick with one thing at a time but sometimes if I am working on a big project I will take a break and make something else smaller.

To many to count--I actually do a lecture that is titled "So its a top, want to make something out of it?" When I teach a class I make one sample that is complete, quilted and bound, then make the sample in several more color ways to show what can be done by changing color placement or maybe block arrangement. These are also easier to carry and weigh a lot less than the finished quilts.

I have several. After Christmas I am going to finish all of them. My New Year's Resolution: I will not start on a new project until I have finished the ones I have half done. We will see how I do.

I have just moved from a full basement quilting studio to a 12 x 12 spare bedroom and I just don't have room for the 3 boxes of UFOs I have, so my resolution for the new year is 2 things, finish off the UFO's and try really hard not to purchase fabric and use what I have in my stash!!! And yes, I am gonna try really hard to keep those resolutions for 2011! Yikes!
