I can't handle that. I've never had more than two on the go at a time. And the second one has been the same quilt for like the last 5 months.

I have an ongoing project that I have put aside three times now to do other quilts (one at a time).

And each time I do it, I feel anxious about having not completed that darn quilt yet.

I had to do a quick baby quilt...just need to bind it and hide threads and then I'm getting back to the other one...again.

And so help me, I WILL finish that thing before I start another project. I'm starting to develop a complex about it.

I have fabric for three quilts en route to me now. I have to get this done before they get here.

Count me in too! What has helped me is joining the thread for UFO's, where quilters commit themselves to finish 1 UFO a month. So far it has worked for me! And I don't feel as guilty starting a new project, knowing sooner or later I will get it done.(What is the worst that can happen? That the quilt I start becomes another UFO which in turn means I have something to do for my UFO challenge of the month!) Happy quilting.... :-) Iris

I cant start - I always feel like I have to finish one project before I start another. The result is that things get put to one side and I do no quilting for days at a time. I wish I could start a new one and then go back. I guess the grass really is greener on the other side.
