He is a 'normal' husband. They don't get it. How long is your 'honey-do' list? Bet that there are a few things on there he hasn't finished yet.

I've got at least 9, all at different stages, plus a new one I started on today, oh yes, about 100 in my head just sitting there and waiting.

Oh girl! My husband is FINALLY catching on. First time I noticed it is when HE was the one to spot the Quilt Shop on a drive. Then he bought me a Studio Cutter for Christmas...now he's starting to plan to convert our 2 car garage into a room just for me. =) Projects??! Many many going at once. I have only heard one person say that they do one at a time. And that was the amazing quilter David Taylor. He does one at a time...and OmG! Its amazing to see why...his are totally perfect front and back.

I like having things in various stages so that I can work on whatever I am in the mood to do. I have 7 waiting to be quilted on my short arm and frame. One on my frame. Two waiting to be quilted are charity quilts. I have 6 WIP's and 3 On-going projects that I plan to make over several years since they are hand work. At least 10 ideas of projects that I want to start, but won't start them all in 2011. I have only 1 UFO. A project that I started in a class, ran into problems and have given myself permission to not finish unless I really want to!

LOL... more than I'm willing to count :) Some fly thru, others like to linger. :) Tell him your normal!!

Does a painter just work on one canvas at a time?? or Gardner one plant at a time and wait for it to finish growing ??

:) How hungry would he be if only worked on one thing at a time?? :)

Who is counting? This is not a job for many of us. It is a creative outlet just like a man working on cars or playing golf. No set demands. Enjoy. If you dream it you have succeeded!
