    Just wondered if I am the only one that has UFOs sitting around. I do usually finish them, have one that took me 5 years to finish. You all know what I mean? unfinished ones.

    I do, atleast 6 maybe more. I have 1 with the top half way done and then decided it was ugly and can't seem to even touch it.

    Ha ha ha ha .... I am not telling on myself like that. Too many to count. In my own defense though, I spent much of last year using up tons of orphan blocks in projects, and I finished four of the ufo tops.

    Actually, a group of us counted our UFO's last year. I was told I had to count every quilt top that wasn't quilted and every pillow top that was quilted and not made up yet, as well as any project that was started, even if it was cut, but not the fabrics and/or pattern that were chosen for a quilt. I don't remember the exact number but I had over 100. I think it was closer to 120. I was amazed! So, I'm devoting this year to working on UFOs and I've already finished 4 tops and working on the 5th and 6th.

    I have about 80, and if i never do anymore on them, that is fine with me, and if i decide to finish them, then that is great too. I have enjoyed the process and learned from each one.
