    I have 2 tops that need sandwiching. 5 pizza boxes of quilts in different stages of work. 3 pizza boxes of crafts in progress. 3 piles of fabrics for future quilts. Then two notebooks/drawings/writings of projects I want to work on in the near future. Then there is all the stuff floating around in my head of things to sew and craft and write. My hubby knows all this and has learned to live with it all and not say anything unless it's something nice. If he brings up the subject of my UFO's and WIP's, well I can show him the basement of his UFO's, plus the deck that needs doing, the windows that need finishing, there is that floor that is waiting for the flooring and we HAVE the flooring for it, and I have a list of major Honey-Do's. So I don't worry about what hubby thinks and yes, I do allow him to think. After all he is my sweetie!

    I do one quilt at a time, the reason is that I get frustrated if I have too much happening, and I know me, if I put one aside I will never return to it, and possibly not finish the one I put it aside for either. Which just compounds the problem for me. Sorry, but you don't have to tell hubby, I'm just an oddball.

    I'm quilting one, in the process of cutting out another, piecing another, have another with the binding sewn on the front side only. Those are the ones that I do a little bit every day on. Then I have at least 10 other projects in the partially cut to adding borders stages. And probably another 20 that fabric and patterns are stored together waiting on me to begin.

    I have more unfinished than finished plus a hugh box of patterns that I bought a few years ago. One on my new year's resolutions is to start more and hopefully finish the unfinished ones.

    I have at least 4 quilts in progress and half a dozen other projects (pot holders, handbags, etc.) that need to be finished. As long as I'm happy, he doesn't mind at all. :-P
