I can only work on one project at a time. And find it hard to start a project if its necessary before finishing up a project.
If I have to start something new for a gift, I try to make notes so when I return to my main project I know where I left off.
I like a neat sewing room and if I have a couple projects going on at the same time I fel like I'm working in clutter.
After reading posts on this board it sounds as though many quiters work on several projects at a time. Is this the norm?
Do most quilters finish a project before starting another?
Do most quilters have several projects going on at once?
Curious to hear feedback.

I have lots and lots of projects going at once, some i get bored with and need to do something else for a while, some are set aside as i need to make a gift, some i just got sick of doing, some i am doing with a friend and we cant' always work out a time that is good for both of us. I am sure i will get them all done someday and if not, that is ok too.

I can't do one project at a time, I need the "thrill of the chase"... to keep me motivated... always chasing down that next project!

I am one of those people that has a few going at once...but I am also one that finishes alot....so I am never concerned about it...usually I have more than one project becuase some are more detailed than others and I will get bored with tedious work ..so I have to have a side project to work on while resting on the other.

I have 3 or 4 on the go usually alternating between easy/difficult and small/large - like Charismah, it's good to be able to spend a bit of time on something different.

My sewing room is a separate building outside, so I do all my quilting in there, but in the house, I keep my handwork by my chair, embroidery etc. So I do keep several projects going at a time

I have several peojects going at the same time, but only have the one I am working on right now out, the rest are in storage box's and out of sight for now. I can not work in messy room.

I have tried to work on one project at a time but it hasn't worked out. I generally have the one I'm working on and cutting blocks for others. I love cutting my fabric's.

I will have several projects going at one time. The lastest has been 5 projects. I just finished 3 of them and have fabrics for 3 more sitting on my cutting table.

If you can only work on one project at a time, then only work on one project at a time.

It doesn't matter what the "norm" is, if there even is a
"norm." It only matters what works for you.
