    Default So how many quilts are you working on?

    Me? Oh well, I counted tonight and I have 7 in progress.

    Please tell me I'm not the only one! In my defense, 3 of those are BOM's. Does that help? LOL

    I,m working on finishing up (quilting) 13 quilt tops. I just finished 2 table runners, and like you I have also got 4 BOM that I am doing. I also just started doing a quilt block with all the blocks on point--just to try something different.

    I have 15. That doesn't count a couple that are practice FMQ quilts and a couple of tops waiting to be quilted. I work on one till I get to a point that I need to figure out what to do next. (My own designs) Then I put it aside and work on another to give myself a chance to think it over. I've found that I'm not happy with the results if I hurry through something I'm having trouble with. If I put it aside I can come back to it with a fresh outlook. I also made several kits recently when I thought I was going to have to spend time in an apartment with my dad near the hospital where he'd receive radiation treatment. The tests came back better than we expected so no treatment needed. But now I have three or four projects ready to go.

    Am I the black sheep here? I only have one...

    A few years ago I decided to be very disciplined and to finish one quilt before I start the next. But you can be sure, there are at least 5 or 6 already planned in my mind!

    About 15 in progress, I think. And 2 I'm actually working on, plus FMQ practice for Leah Day's Quilt Along.

    I'm just a lightweight. I've got one double on the go and a lap quilt for hand sewing that I take when we go travelling in our Motorhome (off to Spain for three months later this month). More planned for Spring and Summer. If I had more than two on the go I think my head would explode.

    Nothing at the moment. Now I have all my orders out of the way and can do whatever I want, I can't decide. Too many that I want to do. So for now I'm playing with my Accuquilt which I hadn't used even though I bought it last year. I'm cutting up my scraps.
