I see a pattern in a magazine and know that if I want the same fabric, I buy the material and stash it away for whenever I get time to work on it. Well, I counted up, what I remembered, and I have 12 projects waiting on me. They are all for someone else, nieces, son, sister, and friends. These are all projects that I have already bought the pattern, material and most of the time thread too. I have 2 cut out and ready to sew together, but I am trying to find time to cut out some others first.
How many projects do you have lined up for the future? I have 4 yrs and 6 months before I can retire, then it's gonna be sewing all day long. Bobbi |
UFO's included, about 10. I LOVE doing quilt tops; after that am going downhill! :-)
|
Right now I have 4.
|
I have a notebook full of projects I want to do. I think I have at least 2 dozen projects that I have some or all of the fabric, directions, thread, embellishments etc for.
|
no comment lol
|
I just sent enough fabric to be laser cut for 8 quilts.
plus around 5 sitting here. thats enough. |
I have 4 where I have all the fabric. I don't cut until I'm ready to start sewing in case i decide to use the fabric for something else.
Good luck on that sewing all day thing. I've been retired for 4 years and I'm lucky if I can get an hour of sewing in a day. |
too many lol
|
I can't count that high. Everytime I turn around , I see another one that got pushed aside, to start another one.
|
To many to count
|
too many! :lol:
|
more than I can count on my fingers and toes!
|
I'm not even going there ;-)
|
Oh my gosh......I lost track. I better get off here and get to going.
|
Who is counting? It is the nature of a quilter to stock up so she is never without a stash, patterns or projects.
The one with the most, wins. Carol J. |
I plead the 5th.

I probably have at least 20 in my head....and 3-4 that I'm working on, and 1 UFO... I try not to have UFOs or too many things 'actively' in progress at one time, because i'm imppatient about finishing things. :)
|
I decided to go count, thought maybe that would motivate me....... 25 quilts in various stages. 3 are almost done. that does not include almost 20 bow tucks to get done before Christmas!
Or the two graduation quilts for my sons that I have not started!!! |
I plead the fifth....
|
sigh... too many!!!

i haven't counted, but i'm sure there are a dozen or so.
|
Quite a few
|
About 12-18. Like many of you, I'm gung-ho on piecing the top, then the project stagnates for a while before it becomes a quilt. The exception would be if I have a definite deadline for the project, such as Christmas or birth of a child, and in that case, I can usually keep up the lightening speed.
I'm in a profession driven by deadlines also, so I guess that's consistent. |
I have three that I'm planning. I haven't cut anything yet, but I do have the fabric.
|
I have a few..... but I've been working on getting them done. My problem is that while I'm trying to finish something that I started awhile ago..... a quilt of great importance (to somebody) needs to be made. So the stack of UFOs is getting smaller but it will be awhile before it is down to zero!!.... maybe never zero..... who am I kidding?
|
I have three quilts currently "on deck" so to speak. I have the fabric and pattern ready for a 4th, but haven't started cutting yet. Beyond that... none except one or two in my mind that have not materialized in my sewing room yet. (haha, materialized, I am pun-ny even before coffee!) :lol:

Hmmm...6 I think...I'm sure the list will keep growing though...every time I turn around I have a new pattern I want to try ;)
|
I have the pattern, fabric, thread, and material for my DD's queen size; an I Spy that has been in the works for three years; two board block swap's I need to put together; three fall table runners I have pattern, fabric, and thread for; need to finish appliqueing the seeds onto my watermelon quilt then sew it together, quilt, and bind.
Looks like eight pojects. Oh, and I am making potholders, oven mitts, and those cute mannequin pincushions as I get around to them. I get bored working on the same project for too long...I take a break and go back to whatever I want when the mood strikes. |
About five quilts in various stages and several wallhangings and some craft things. At one point this summer I was all caught up, but Christmas is not thar far away I need to finish this stuff. LOL
|
3 tops in various stages, 5 tops waiting on quilting, 2 runners waiting on quilting, a table topper where quilting is started, and collecting fabric for to many projects to count. Can't have to many coals in the fire :P
|
Before Christmas 4 or 5 ( 2 quilts and 2 table runners and 1 table topper). After Christmas is another story.

too many also

Three, and that's plenty for me! Two are tops waiting on borders. Still working out just what I want to do. Then one will go for quilting, I'm going to try to handquilt the 2nd. Then a 3rd little rag quilt to make in the next month. Of course, I have a much longer mental list of the quilts I want to make!!
