Always have several projects going at one time. I woud be totally confused if I only cound work on one thing at a time.
My husband tells me finish before hyour start something else. Works for him not for me. Have a wonderful day.

Unfortunately I am a starter!!! Always have several projects going at once. I would guess that a lot of quiters do this...just ask for a UFO count, lol. I would like to be one of those that completes a project before going on...think I would actually get more done that way, but alas, I just start, start, start...and eventually finish, lol.

Getting a project done before starting another? Now that is unheard of. I think I suffer from completion anxioty. Not only on my quilting but scrapbooking, knitting, the house, knitting. you name it and I have it in some form of completed. Yes I do get some projects done but I hate to think of how many of them I have in the works. I tried to take part in the UFO project here in the board but fell short the second month as I had to many other things that were screaming for my attention.
Congrats to you for your method and I do hope you can keep it up. Maybe I should take lessons.

Completion anxiety is a funny one!!! :D
I agree with Scissor Queen.
I'm also one who has several going on at once. Seems I'm like that about a lot of things. Not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing!!
Bottom line- do what makes YOU happy!! :D

i try hard to keep it down to less than 100 at a time :)
everywhere you look in my world you see another project in some stage of completion...and lots more hiding from view. i can grab anything i'm in the mood for to work on
sometimes this is a very bad thing...i wish i could make one thing at a time...that would drive me crazy though...no matter what i'm doing (not just quilting) i am multitasking...you know, paying bills, fixing dinner, putting away, getting out...all at once....i usually have 2 or 3 sitting on cutting table, ironing board, sewing table at one time...and yes, sometimes things get mixed up :(
