I really don't know. Everytime I count them and put down a number within the next few days I will run across more that I have forgotten. Many of my UFO's are tops that are waiting to be quilted until I know who they are going to, they take up so much less room unquilted. Also when I get an idea I have to at least start it because I am afraid I will forget about it.

OMG! Way too many to bother to count, but I'm working hard on them. I've even given away to Goodwill about 10 I would never finish, but someone else most likely will. I'm trying to get as many done each month as I can, in between the craft items for the booth I need each craftshow. Some of the UFO's are meant to be sold, some are for donations, a few for gifts...just mostly need to get tops quilted & bound on tablerunners & quilttops I've made & just put aside as they were done. I end up making new projects or getting into BOM's & mystery quilts or the pinwheel project here on the board...the tops get forgotten for a couple years or more & then I go looking for something & they get uncovered again...one day they will all get totally finished. I'm sure that's how most of us feel. I'm darn sure trying to get what I have now done by the end of this year...we'll see................

I also have a lot of UFO's. However, this year I am determined to finished many of these. So far I have finished about 4 UFO's and it feels really good. I am trying not to start any new projects but that is hard to do. There are so many neat project out there.

None,I guess I'm kinda OCD like that.Once I have the quilt top made and the binding sewn on I immediately start layering it and quilting it. But I was like that in school too. If a teacher told us on Monday that a report was due on Friday,then I started working on it on Monday. I just can't let a quilt top lay there and not quilt it.

Had my group of sewing friends over last night and did a show and tell of some of my ufo's...and it was only about 1/3-1/2 of them...showed 9 basted ones, and 44 tops...was fun to see them...some I am keeping out to finish...and can't wait to have friends over the next time to see the rest of them...I am inspired again to get quilting...not just piecing.
