Today, I was admiring two quilts that my mother finished recently when my son so encouragingly remarked "See Mom, Grandma actually finishes quilts." :oops:

UFO's? Not me! I have at least 6 and I am still starting another one? Is that wrong? :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm gonna tell on myself here... ALL of mine are UFOs! The quilt in my avatar - which got me started quilting two years ago - is waiting for the binding to be sewn down on the back. I have a "Wickedly Easy" ready for binding, and several tops finished, but they need quilted. The Wickedly Easy is my first attempt at machine quilting. Now I am working on a flannel top for my brother... it's all good! :D

Gee, that's almost like asking how much I weigh! LOL I prefer to call mine WIPs! The only one that will remain a UFO is a flag I was doing with cheap FQs that I hated working with. It was all narrow strips, some fabrics were too loosly woven, some too stiff. I doubt I'll ever finish it. Everything else is in various stages of progress with the intention of finishing. :)

I couldn't tell. Every time I open a box or a drawer I find another one! Next year, after I retire, I will sort them out and find a home for the ones I decide I don't want to finish. Then I'll work on finishing some of the others.

I have 3 WIP's but that is only because I had to have carpotunel surgery. Now I should be able to get those done within the next couple of weeks. Having WIP's makes me very uncomfortable so I don't usually start a new one until the one I am working on only needs hand work done. That doesn't, however, stop me from buying fabric for future projects.

I think I have about a dozen. I'm trying this year to get them ALL finished before I start anything new. I'm also doing the Quilts For Kids, so they take priority over finishing UFOs.

I try not to count them! I know I have at least 5 that are 'sandwiched' and waiting to be quilted. I have another 3-4 in various stages of piecing - maybe 5-6! And I have some smaller projects that are in various stages.

my list never goes down- finish 1 and another takes its place. I have 12. But they include 2 I will never finish because I don't like them. I should put them on the board and make them go to a new home.
