And...what's your point????

Have you made a "Not your Grandmother's Flower Garden"? It is done in strips and easier than the original.

If you are enjoying yourself, then you are not crazy :)

Quilts in progress-3 baby - 2 queen -2 lap and some how I got roped into making a reversible hanging bassinet thingy one side pink the other blue and I still have to get 2 more queens which I haven't even shopped for yet due for Christmas. And here I am on the computer my brother said 'shouldn't you be sewing' -I replied I'm working on perfecting my Procrastinator Gene- Oh I forgot I also have to cut and prepare blocks for a baby shower then make the quilt-I need a couple clones

I have 5 UFO's waiting to be finished, but the silliest thing I have done recently was tearing my newly remodeled room apart yesterday looking for my attachment box. For the longest time it was on the shelf under the table. When I gave up and started sewing I realized the attachment box is part of my machine and I had put it back on the machine. Still haven't admitted it to my husband, who did wander in the room and took a look before he fled.

:oops:

At least you won't run out of something to keep your interest sparked!

No crazy, just fun quilting. I just finish the wedding quilt. Working on deer quilt lap size, 2 wall hanging and a fall table topper.

Sounds pretty crazy.....to anybody who does not quilt. I currently have one quilt being hand quilted on a frame in my quilt room, 2 baby quilts (waiting to find out if they are boys or girls) ready to begin on, a patriotic quilt in the piecing stage, and a "quilt to go" in sections that I can hand quilt in the evening sitting beside the DH. And they say we quilters can't multitask!!!!!!

i quit counting & just put them in baggies!!!!!!!

You are not the only one that finishes 1 project before starting a new one. Guess I can't multi-task as well as a lot of you. I'm going to try more than one at a time and see if I succeed. I spend too much time on the QB-maybe my biggest problem. Enjoy it though.

I'd be exhausted, that's for sure, and I would never get anything done. When I have too many projects going at once, want's to make me jump from one to the other and will never get anything done. That's why I stay with one project from start to finish

Sounds perfectly normal to me Diane C

Dang I have so many in the process besides about 30 maybe more to LAQ, all mine... Have several customer quilts to quilt so they get service first, then me.

I'm the same- still have a sampler quilt I've been quilting for about four years on and off as well as baby quilts and a partially finished quilt top.

I couldn't even tell you how many projects I have started at the present time. But I have finished 4 UFO's this week so I am getting a "little" better.

We may be crazy. but an it fun. and we are all in good company.

You don"t have time to be crazy or insane

Oh my, is this the wrong way to schedule my quilting life?!? I thought this was normal....

:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

I would be bored with it all if I only had 2 or 3 projects started at once. Just like books, I find myself reading more than a couple at a time.

Maybe that way no single quilt is driving you crazy like my own situation...

I do the same thing!
I currently am working on a;;
EPP Seven Sisters , finished size unknown
EPP & peiced Red White & Blue dbl size
4 'tube' quilts for the Grand kids
hand quilting a 45x45 wallhanging
embroidering a 'snowman alphabet' quilt.
I generally work on at least 3 of those things daily, even if it's only for 10 mins. then, one day I 'magically' have 3 things done !!!!!

You sound pretty normal to me :^)

Ha Haaaa! How many arms and hands do you have and also how many machines? You are not alone though for sure. At least y ou wont get bored. Have fun!!!!!

Can't stop you because I,m right there with you.

Ha, better you than me!

I must be a lunatic. I went past insane a long time ago. I keep telling myself to finish one before starting another but I see a new pattern and have to try it. I have lost count of how many I have started but it is so much fun I don't worry about it.

Well, then I'm crazy too. I usually have just as many project going on. And several more in the mental planning stages also.

But that way you don't get bored with one..you can flip flop between them..LOL

Yeah, maybe we all are a bit that way. So then, why do I go start even one more project?

exactly

That's called multitasking. It keeps one from getting bored with one project.

Not crazy just in good company. I have in progress a lattice quilt, T shirt quilT, black and white log cabin, another I forget the name of and just finished another one this morning. I think I have a sweat shirt jacket in there somewhere. Just keeps our interest up.

I can relate to this. I have 2 tops finally finished waiting to be quilted, 1crosstich I am trying to get finished, hand embrodering some things that go in another quilt and have started to sort my strips for another and I feel perfectly sane,

I think we're all excellent multi-taskers!

Wow, I thought I was the only one who did this. I have right now: Twin size log cabin that needs a back, queen size stained glass quilt that needs 40 more blocks, about 7 tops that need LAQ, a butterfly quilt that needs starting but I have all the fabric and back for, and a quilt whose name escapes me that I have all the fabric, pattern and back for.
I guess I am no help either. LOL

me too!!!

i read the whole thread, and as usual, you ladies have made me feel so much better.

i have 13 things in process, not counting the 2 bom i just started... (they haven't come in yet, so i don't think they count"

and, i am going on the shop hop weekend after next.. so who knows what the count will be after that!

I always have several projects going, keeps me sane! I would go nuts if I only had one thing going at a time & forced myself to keep at it till it was done! You sound perfectly normal to me, work on whichever one you want, whenever you want, & don't even worry about it, just enjoy!

and here i sit, knowing i have sooooo much to do.
