That's about it for me too! In other words, too many.

3 currently in progress (one is hand quilting/embroidery for nighttime with DH) and 6 planned for the immediate future. Problem - only actually quilt on F S S.!!! too tired at the end of the workday for anything other than hand work :(

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.

You are going to love your retirement time! The days go so fast, my DH and I say we don't know how we had time to work before:) I actually have time to sew for a few hours almost every afternoon, unless, of course, DGD is here or other things to do for DGSs or other DGKs come from out of town, but we love it. I didn't start quilting until I retired, so I think you are ahead of the game if you are doing some quilting now. I don't want to count how many quilts I feel I want to do for certain people, but I know I'm behind! I made a mistake and bought fabric for a quilt for myself two years ago, this Thanksgiving, it was a big sale you know. It is way back on my list of things to do!

I believe in finishing the last one before starting a new one, but I slipped up and I've got two waiting to be completed.

I have one waiting to be sandwiched, and two waiting to be quilted and bound.
Then there are two kits awaiting. And why I bought them, I'll never know!!

Have two lap quilts to figure out backing for and finish, one baby quilt ready to sandwich, a Sunbonnet Sue Tote to do for a birthday gift in December. And a sewing room to relocate to another room in the house. Shoulder surgery scheduled for Oct. 25 so I will be busy!

Good luck on that sewing all day thing. I've been retired for 4 years and I'm lucky if I can get an hour of sewing in a day.

I have been retired since June and I have, maybe, quilted one whole day once! That was at a retreat! LOL
