I always have several projects going at once. Most days I sit on here reading or staring at my fabrice because I don't know what to do next. I definitely have quilter's ADD or ADH...I don't know the difference but my initials are ADH and that is how I label my quilts, the adh quilter.

Ahoi, matey! I recently started to focus working on one thing at a time. OK - it turned out to be two but only because I didn't have the right color thread, so I made some blocks while waiting for the store to open.
IT FELT SO GOOD when I FINISHED the small wallhanging yesterday. I mean FINISHED. Binding on, label on. Now I am on to the next UFO. Gonna kill me some Sunbonnet Sues today. lol
Just pick one of your UFOs. If you thought it was worthy to start, it is probably worthy to be finished. If not, pack it up and pass it on. Even that will make you feel better, and admitting that you fell out of love with a project is not a bad thing.

I know this one too. So many ufos, plus projects I haven't started yet. I realised a while ago that I was feeling so overwhelmed that I wasn't doing anything and hid all but one project out of sight. Worked quite well, but then I needed the space where I'd stored the others, they came out again and now I'm back to feeling overwhelmed. But - as I wrote this, I just realised that I now have a bed with storage space underneath - hmm, may go and hide those ufos again, and see if just having one out will focus me again..
I also joined a ufo challenge this year and that's encouraged me to finish 3 or 4, but I'll be nowhere near 12 by December.

I was feeling that way when we got back from vacation and had a rough time getting motivated. This morning I'm happy to report I finished three traveling checkers games and started collecting fabrics for another table runner. My pattern (french braid) calls for three fat quarters and I have plenty of two fabrics, but the other one is scraps & I'm trying to figure out if I have enough to carry it out. My brain is tired at this point, so I'm taking a break.
