From weeks to decades. That's why I have UFOs, WIPs, and PIGS.

I don't make simple patterns as a rule. I don't want to just crank out quilts for the sake of cranking them out. I usually work on 4 to 7 quilts at the same time. I'll have one or two in the cutting stage, and the rest in various piecing stages. Right now I have 6 in progress and I think I may need to start another twin size square in a square quilt. I have a niece in law that may be getting married and I think her intended has a young daughter.

Baby quilts are the only ones I generally work straight thru on. Nobody I have made a baby quilt for so far has known in advance if it's a boy or girl so I have to get them done quickly after the baby is born. I always make pinwheel quilts and just change the colors.

I work on multiple projects at a time, but can make a somewhat complicted quilt in a week or two if motivated. Then there are the ones that years later i will pull out to finish.
I have a mid-arm no computer stitch out. One, not interested at this time and second no $$ for one.

I have some quilts that have taken a whole year to piece because they were blocks of the month.

I guess I really am slow. I moved 14 years ago. A few months ago I found a box all nicely packed. Guess what, it was a quilt I had started before I moved and sort of forgot about. I am now sewing on it. I usually figure close to a year per quilt. But I am all hand pieced and hand quilted. I piece some on the machine that are for church projects, but for me or family it's hand. And I work on several at once. Right now am working on 5, not counting 2 that I am quilting.

I only get a little time to sew. I usually take one of my days off for sewing. Therefore it takes me a little longer to do a quilt. That's OK for me cause I like watching it take shape.

I usually try to do the piecing by all the way through until I'm done. It's the quilting part that takes forever. I hand quilt a lot of my quilts, machine quilt STID, or send them out (rarely, because it's expensive). I have many that have been waiting for awhile waiting to be quilted. And we won't even talk about all the quilts that are in my head, fighting to get out!

I have multiply projects going all at the same time ! Definitely slows things down when it comes to finishing them :oops:

When I first started to piece I did a block of the month. Then I challenged my sister to do a block each month. I bought her the same book that I had, so we could do the same block, or a different one. That was a real good way to challenge each other to do something different.
