I work on 1 project at a time, from start to finish.
I usually have a couple patterns on my desk to check on fabric
to see what I may need to purchase at the next LQS sale.
This way I know ahead of time what fabric I may need to purchase so I can take advantage of sales. I can check my stash to see what fabrics I can use for the quilt. This also gives me time to think through a pattern and decide if I really want to make this quilt or how I may want to make any changes to the
quilt top. Working on one project at a time keeps the clutter down in my sewing room as well.

Usually 2 or 3. One is being machine pieced. One is being handquilted and the 3rd is a hand pieced 3/4" hexagon quilt that will be an ongoing project for years.

Sometimes, if I'm in the mood to cut, I will start another.

I do this because some days I just want to sit and do hand work, other days I'm in the mood to cut or machine piece. Always have something I can work on no matter what mood I'm in.

I have way too many. I was going to try and finish them all this year but have started 2 more. Must be ADHD. LOL

I try to complete piecing the tops together so that I do not forget the "how to", then put it aside. I will then do sandwiching of 2-3 and then machine quilt most when I have the machine set up for it. After quilting then I put on binding and another quilt finished.

Gosh, I wish I could be that disciplined and actually finish one before moving on to another one. I take a lot of little classes for smaller projects so I get sidetracked alot. This year, I will focus on finishing up projects already started along with some cross-stitch and needlepoint projects.

Money's going to be tight this year so I guess that's probably the way to go.
