    Same here. I used to quilt 30 years ago in high school and procrastinated over many unfinished projects so....when I started back quilting last year (now at the responsible age of 48) I promised myself to finish my projects before starting a new one. That being said, I have a "turning twenty" quilt that needs to be sandwiched and have another 20 (almost finished) blocks on the dining room table. In my defense, I am trying to decide whether to send my quilt out to be machine quilted or if I am brave enough to try it on my own with my new Janome 6600 and save myself $80.

    I have 4. I like that I can pick and choose what I'm in the mood to work on.

    One french braid, two Night Before Christmas in redwork for two new great grands, three or four that need borders, three that need quilting and one in the frame about half quilted. Already picked up a new "must do" from the site this morning! No deadlines tho.

    I have several friends that never, ever start a quilt without finishing one. They may make several blocks at a class but she goes back to finish the other before doing the class project. I finish tops but then they sit. Expensive to have quilted and since I always seem to be making a top...they sit. When I machine quilt them I do them on my dining room table, more room. Arthritis keeps me from hand quilting now.

    One that I work on at night (handquilted) and 5 finished tops waiting to be done on my machine. Then there's the
    2 that are in progress being pieced. I love moving from project to project depending on my mood for that day.
    Now if I have to finish one as a gift that's a different story. Just finished a 42x42 pink baby quilt in the rail fence.

    A few years ago I decided to be very disciplined and to finish one quilt before I start the next. But you can be sure, there are at least 5 or 6 already planned in my mind!
    I would not call you a black sheep. I too work one at a time, otherwise I would get distracted and want to start another without ever finishing the first. I have a list of about 6 or 7 quilts, 1 baby quilt that I have yet to make.
