I probably have around 12.

Something tells me that when you have two of the largest Rubbermaid containers full of completed tops and a couple of smaller ones full of blocks and numerous shoe boxes full of blocks and fabric for sashings and borders that you have a lot of UFO's. I'm not counting them and I refuse to feel guilty about them. Quilting is my hobby and sanity saver and when I no longer can quilt or receive enjoyment from it, then my girls will pack it all up and send it to my quilt guild!

I have 3 UFO's that have not been touched in over 8 months, and 2 tops nearing completion. I do my own quilting so it is going to be a while.

They is NO WAY I will count my UFO"SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. It would just make me sad to know that I can't seam to finsh any thing.

My count is getting to be less and less as I finish tops each year. I don't have storage for finished quilts so am storing the tops and sometimes the fabric for backing. I think I have 4 or 5 that I can think of. But of course I have fabric or kits that haven't been started yet.

Oh I am so glad to see someone else has totes full. I found a tote the other day that I had completely forgotten. Out where I can see them I have five ready to go to quilter and 4 that I am working on,2 class project working on and learning to do crazy quilting and several kits waiting for my attention. Sounds like we are all busy.

I don't want to know.

I DO keep a running list of my UFO's because when they are put away I forget about them. My total at present time is 62. This does not include fabric bought for a specific quilt that has not been cut into yet. Disgusting, isn't it? This includes 3 large quilts waiting to be bound, and one more at the LAér that I will work on after my knee replacement surgery later this month. The main thing that helps me finish them is space.

I am averaging 1 a month since I started quilting- so 2. But in my defense, I was waiting to get the batting in the mail from Joann's Prez Day sale (rec'd), and now I just need to find the TIME. Thinking I'll do one this weekend. I at least need to get my son's quilt finished since I asked him to make the pattern, and got it done in ~3 weeks. I don't want to start a habit of having a huge stash nor a huge lot of UFOs, so I've picked out a nice pattern for what little stash I currently have (e-patterns had a pretty rectangle nine patch on display today).

I have 12. I am finishing the binding on the largest this week. I plan to finish 3 other small ones this month. Two of them are block of the month that I can't finish until October. I am going to try to finish 2 a month and I will catch up this year. I will not allow myself to start a new quilt until these are finished!
