I don't think it matters if you finish them or not - have fun occupying yourself with a relaxing and stimulating hobby. It is far more rewarding than idle gossip.

I am working on 4 (one should be finished in the next few days), plus I have lots of completed tops stored in boxes. Because my quilting and machine embroidery are hobbies, except for the occasional snarky remark from DH about finishing "his" quilts, I am not concerned about WIPs or UFOs. I'll get them done when I get them done. I am apparently VERY slow because I am amazed at the speed with which some of you complete a quilt.

I've been sewing 7 years, and have always finished the one I'm working on before beginning another. That is, until this spring. Lately I've been working on a queen Straits of Georgia (waiting for the last border fabric), an on point Rail Fence and 4-Patch and Furrows. Just this week finished the latter two, and have started on Patience Corners for a comfort quilt.

I am working on Hawaiian applique, a purse, a baby quilt, a Frank LLoyd Wright wall hanging and a quilt for my nephew and his wife. I guess you are not alone :lol:

No idea. Too many? I have many stuck in the just before basting phase as I do not like the quilting on too big a projects.

I do not have any I give them all away. I'm sorry I do have 3 one that was made by my great grandmother and one that was made by my grandmother and one tht was made by my mother and those I WILL NOT give away. I STARTED IN THIS TO GIVE TO OTHERS AND THAT IS MY BAG. Now that I am a 20 times a grandmother I figure it is time for me to make one for myself. My husband does'nt care for them as he says thay are too heavy but since all the new fabric and light batting is in he thinks it is time..LOL oh well...Think I will do a lone star in the size of a king for the bed and we will see? HA HA HA
