    Oh quiltncrazy I didn't mean that y'all would actually yell at me. I just know a couple of people who would have teased me that I was trying to make my numbers look smaller. I wish they were less but I am horrible about getting ahead of myself. I usually find a pattern, technique or fabric I really like and start buying for it. Some of these I didn't even realize I had everything together for it until I started thinking about it. It is very true though that the projects for others will get done first. My DH is always asking just when I am going to make something for me :wink:

    Oh my! Oh my! After reading all these posts, I clearly do not have enough fabric. :lol: :lol:

    My WIP list is short.

    1. Winter Wall hanging ( Taking Home the Tree - Applique)
    2. Queen Quilt (pattern is a Flying Goose derivative with a Flying Goose border)
    3. Advent Calendar (Paper Piecing)

    That would be it!

    The more fabric you have, the less painful the fall. lol

    I like this-- I guess if I keep throwing it all over the floor when I'm trying to "match" scrappy quilt fabrics, then I'll have quite the cushion.
