I am currently working on 3 or 4, not quite sure, then I go through my dresser drawers and see the fabric that I have for other quilts, just haven't decided on the pattern yet. So glad I am not alone!

How funny!!I retired 2 years ago and I still have not got to sew like I want to.>>It seems there is always something else that has to be done...but I have 5 ready to build...some of them are next years quilt show...so I have to get busy on them...I think we try not to remember the count so we can still keep looking at the patterns and fabric:) I try not to buy more fabric till needed...good luck..

Don't count your quilts/UFOs before you retire. I just retired in June of this year thinking now I will be able to finish those 20 or so UFOs and make lots of new quilts. So far I think I have finished only two UFOs but have done about ten charity quilt tops and one new one for myself. It seems like there are always other things that I want to do so don't have as much time to quilt as I thought. Anyway it is more fun to do a variety of things when you do retire.

Two. One just went under the needle this week and the other is in the hunting/gathering (fabric) stage.

I am glad I am not the only one with a gazzilion UFO's. Maybe in retirement I will get caught up. In my dreams.

These are all projects that I have already bought the pattern, material and most of the time thread too. I have 2 cut out and ready to sew together, but I am trying to find time to cut out some others first.

How many projects do you have lined up for the future? I have 4 yrs and 6 months before I can retire, then it's gonna be sewing all day long.
