Go for it. We are quilters, woman and guess who is always doing a million things at once. It never seems like I have only one project at a time. Of course I finish one that was started a year ago, and I want to finish everything before I start a new project. Just start your new pattern, make a block or two, and then quilt one of you husband's quilts for him and you may just get several of them done. Before you know it all the charity quilts will be done and your new project is on the way too. Multi tasker your are.
