Welcome Madeline! We all work at our own pace, some faster some slower. Me, right now I think I'm in idle I don't think I have finished anything in 4 months. But I am getting my sewing room cleaned and organized.
Happylab - Love the 3 finishes you did a awesome job!
Quiltmouse - 159? and the oldest is 47 years? You have a outstanding memory! I'm with Teen cheering you on!
Teach - 3 Quilts in 4 weeks? Did you eat or sleep? and the log cabin is great!
Conchalea - Congratulation on rescuing orphan blocks from being a long term UFO and getting a table runner. Love to see pictures soon of both the runner and the Unwind quilt.
Petthefabric - Way to Go!!!
Teen - How is the house coming? Are you liking the new area?

For my continuous UFOs, I have:
2 Saturday Samplers (three years old)
3 or 4 Strip quilts
1 Embroidered horse block quilt
1 Embroidered car block quilt
2 Panel-themed quilts
1 Halloween quilt (11 yr?)
That is the count I can remember for now. I know I won't get all of these done, but I can kick out some of them in the next 5-1/2 months!

Welcome home, Madeline...a thousand thank you's for your service. 
And, welcome on the UFO train...
Dedemac....home build is going great and I'm loving the Northwest!! So happy here but miss the sister and mother-in-law we left behind. Going to see them next week so all is good! Thank you for asking! And...thank you for your service, too! I'm a Navy brat...lol..
Still,working on hexi and daisy projects. Hexi 4P backgrounds are done...now just need to sew hexi flowers on them. I really like it so far. Trying to squeeze in sew time in between house build stuff.

Welcome Madeline, and thank you for your service.
I've been so busy fabric-chasing to complete those two 20 yo projects, till I feel that I am peddling backwards. One of the project is a self-improvised and that's why it can't come together. No pre-planning of direction or design. I just got to keep at it and when it comes together I will take pix of it and post them here.
Happy Sewing everyone---Cherryb

I got an A+ for this past weekend! I got the two 3yo Saturday Samplers done, one 2yo Saturday Sampler done (I forgot about this one), and one that was a quick request for a sick Uncle.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]615378[/ATTACH] It is busy, but it grows on you.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]615379[/ATTACH] (Sans borders)
[ATTACH=CONFIG]615380[/ATTACH] Border material for Around The World.
These three are to be packaged this evening for the long-armer.
This final one is one that finally came back from the quilter. It is a graduation gift for one of my cousin's kids. I have one more to be all caught up for graduations--at least for two more years.

That is all that I have pictures of for right now.
