    Irene I think you and I are twins.

    I'm new to this board and would like to join those of you who are planning to finish UFOs this year. I won't promise a total of 12 but any finished project is a good project in my book. hummm which one should I start with?

    I have the same problem. New projects are very alluring, aren't they? I'm in on this challenge. Can't wait to get some things completed!

    Well, Marcia, I have laid several on the table in the den--right beside the jigsaw puzzle that has had all my spare (and some that wasn't spare) time the past three days. Haven't decided if I will finish one all the way, then start on another, or skip around--what would you do? piecefully, the old one

    I'll play. I took a closer look at my quilting list and realized that I only have 5 actual UFO's. The ones I've started and really really really don't feel like finishing. The remaining 25+ are all WIPs and as yet uncut PIGs although 11 of the WIPs are just waiting for quilting so I guess they would qualify as well.

    You're probably asking the wrong person. lol I have over 35 UFOs. I find that if I skip around, I get confused, so in the past couple of months I worked on one til it was done then started working on another I had almost finished, then started something new from the board, then finished the 2nd one and will now start on finishing what I started from the board(is that a UFO since I stopped working on it?)...you get the picture. My mind gets full of chaos if I work or think about more than one, but if I hit a snag and have to let it sit for awhile, I start on another.
