TOPIC: How many projects?

13 Mar 2009 15:06 #33246

Let's see...
1 & 2 are my sons' graduation quilts, still piecing
3 would be my SIL's med-school graduation quilt, top is finished
4 Bouquets for a New Day-- need to put the blocks together
5 Hexagons (GFG) that is my carry-around project now that I'm done with the applique BOM, it's close to needing to be finished off, too big to stuff in a bag.
6 lap quilt made from cotton upholstery fabrics, it's basted a la Sharon Shamber (?) and ready for machine quilting
7 need to put a label on a finished lap quilt for my little sister, but I'm going to give it to her when she turns 50 so I've got 2+ years to go :wink:
8 I think everything else would qualify still as UFO, they're less-likely to get touched this year, as some haven't moved forward in many years-- one which has possibly been UFO for 100 years already... a collection of blocks found in an attic in 1975, but one of these days I mean to make several quilts out of them!
Still dreaming of finishing...

Good grief, what a question! I'm sitting here counting up in my mind, and have just passed 20. I'm sure I'm missing some.

There are only two in that group that I'm willing to count as UFOs, because I mean to work on the others!

I don't even want to count how many garments I have in the works . . . .

Let me think outloud:

1. Feathered Star with TQS
2. Bouquet for a New Day (in the living room now being hand quilted!)
3. Christmas One Block Wonder (still assembling)
4. Applique of Pam Bono's Transportation quilt from 1977 for grandson (still building the blocks)
5. Ready to bind:
a. Hawiian wall hanging (already quilted)
6. Border Bonanza (ready to sandwich and machine quilt)
7. Moda all over leaf batiq that I'm going to outline quilt onto my old purchased quilt top that is just the perfect weight for hubby and I thru all seasons!
8. Star Block Quilt with Judy Laquidera (on line) with all blocks done and waiting for the border instructions!

Well I guess that makes 8 for me at this moment! Yes, I too get bored and want variety. I think I've achieved it! ha

I also have many projects on the go at once, not all quilting, some embroidery and some embellishing. I have very little in the way of UFOs except things that have not worked out and they are kept, not in the hope of ever finishing them, but so that they are there to perhaps be cut up and used for something else.

Just curious about how most of us work. Reading the Forum posts about the 2009 BOM, there's indication that some are focused only on this one project while others have multiple works in progress. How many projects do you typically have going? Not UFOs, but projects that you are actually working on or will complete this year.

I tend to get bored easily so usually have more than 10 quilt projects in the works. This gives me a chance to work on whatever part of the process I feel like at the time (cutting, piecing, pressing, quilting, and so on). Drives my sister crazy, but keeps me going and I do complete about 10 projects or more per year. I'm not going for a record, but have so many projects I want to do, I just keep starting another one. "So many quilts, so little time" sums it up pretty well.
