I'm in the same boat (or is it a ship by now?). I'm finishing the quilting on a throw for MIL, have fabric ready for DH's throw for next Christmas, and a couple of wall hangings started. I've also started cutting 2.5" square scraps for a throw for the living room and want to make a different one for the Wreckroom downstairs. I also have ideas for several more I want to do. See, you are not alone by any means!
Oh, and my parents are coming up from Texas in June so I'm thinking I can get that summer sampler wall hanging done by then, right? It will probably be only 9 blocks, set in a 3 X 3 pattern, with sashing and one border. Easy, peasy, eh? Meanwhile, I am about finished with the homework from the quilting class I'm taking. All of this is in addition to the three knitting projects, one of which needs only a couple more rows actually, and the two books I'm reading. I wonder if other hobbyists have these problems - too many great ideas and not enough time (or energy some days). DH is a wood worker and he does only one project at a time. What a concept. |
If it is an addiction, then it's a great one to have! Relax and do whatever makes you happy!

I'm going to make everyone feel better about having too many projects going at a time and post a picture of my sewing room where I had at last count, 5 active quilts and three active garments as well as a new purse/tote bag. This is when you have too much going on at one time. I'm going to clean it all up and start working on one project at a time because I no longer know what to work on when I walk into my sewing room. So until you reach that point, just enjoy the ride!

I have already passed that point. It's so bad you can barely get in the room. Spring cleaning is a must!! But I would rather do something else, ANYTHING else.
