Oh quiltncrazy I didn't mean that y'all would actually yell at me. I just know a couple of people who would have teased me that I was trying to make my numbers look smaller. I wish they were less but I am horrible about getting ahead of myself. I usually find a pattern, technique or fabric I really like and start buying for it. Some of these I didn't even realize I had everything together for it until I started thinking about it. It is very true though that the projects for others will get done first. My DH is always asking just when I am going to make something for me :wink:

My WIP list is short.

That would be it!

The more fabric you have, the less painful the fall. lol

i have too many projects in the wings waiting - i could never count them. i do know though that come Aug 31 i will be able to 'play' more often - i am able to quit working then and will have more time at home - now if i could just get my husband to go for a quilting machine/frame!

I like this-- I guess if I keep throwing it all over the floor when I'm trying to "match" scrappy quilt fabrics, then I'll have quite the cushion.
