    I keep a few going at once. If I get bored with one, I just pick up another. :)

    Opps I guess ones that are waiting to be quilted count too so I have 6-8 more. Don't ahve the money for quilting, backing and batting. So they are still sitting folded up waiting for the $$$.

    But they are done in my books.

    I have made a pact with myself to finish one before starting another. I am always planning the next one or the one after that. There are, of course, exceptions to every rule.....

    Me too. Is it what it says it is?
    I think it is put on the casket instead of flowers but don't know for sure. If that is what it is does it go in the ground?
    I thought maybe in the casket instead of purchasing a liner...?
    edited with new info:
    My grandmother tells me that Native Americans are wrapped in a quilt when they are buried, even when a casket is used. This quilt is made by the mother and/or wife or oldest daughter/DIL of the deceased.

    Google tells me these can be draped over the casket instead of a spray, or under the spray AND can also refer to a quilt used as lining of the casket. Sometimes this lining is made in parts - the lining, which stays in the casket, and a matching piece for the inset, which is removed and given to the family.

    I've lernt somethin today :)

    I just finished the binding on one, have one I am currently binding one, have 3 tops completed, one to put the border on and one I have to finish piecing ( now that I have the pictures the she wants in it). That doesn't count the ideas I have currently being worked on in my head.

    I probably have at least 8 going, but that doesn't count the "long term" quilts I have been "working on" for 8 or 9 years. Then you have to add the ones in my brain, and I think I have to live to be 500 to get them all done. Of course that is considering I stay out of fabric stores!Too many quilts to do, never enough time.
