I don't know about the rest of you but I have a terrible habit of picking up "my next project". For me, I have too many "next projects" sitting around.
Last night I was working on some pillow case kits and started wondering why I was doing them when I had other things I could and should be working on.
Oh the avoidance tactic because the pillow cases are quick. So when I went to bed I thought, "how can I get this back under control?"
Made the decision to bring all "next projects" out and see what was there and start working!
Here they are (all 18 of them):

I have four WIP all different stages on my design wall. And what do I do? I saw a cute wall hanging pattern and started on that. I hate EQ7! I see a picture of a quilt project and I can redraft it perfectly in EQ so I want to make it right then.

Girls, don't fret! Just think of all the creative juices that just keep flowing. If you weren't an artist to begin with you'd only have one project going at a time. How boring! Just remember we can't help it and it's a sign...and not of ADD :)
