I am presumingh a WIP is what we call UFO's here in Australia... an UnFinished Object? I felt the same as you, and I STILL prefer to finish then start next project, but since I started quilting, other than my first ever quilt, I always have a UFO!!
Don't apologise, just enjoy :-D

Irishrose was asking about "cheater" needles, and whether you can get them in machine needles. Yes, you can. A friend of mine has them. Just ask at your LQS. I use the ordinary hand needles and I wouldn't use anything else. Even been known to use them for hand quilting!

They now have self threading or easy threading needles in Joann's plus lots of threading helpers some that are decorative.

There's a new needle on the market ------- called a cheater needle, that tiy can thread with ease - no trying to find that timy hole. Do a search on Google by typing in "cheater needles".

Gee, if I would read the entire post before opening my mouth ................................

Ditto!

You are forgiven! I didn't realize I had WIPS! Then I came across a bin pushed into a corner that hadn't been opened in a while. 7 quilts at difference stages! I'm not down to 3 that just need quilting. Oh, but I just pinned a new one on the board. DArn, back to 4!

LOL

Let's just face up to it people....We all suffer from ADD to a certain extent :roll: After all we are artists....and our mind just races with ideas. I end up with WIPs because some glitch comes along ie when I was working on the silk quilt I had to order the silk velvet backing and the silk embroidery floss so I just HAD to be doing something while waiting. So on comes the seashell quilt. Then I ran out of blue thread during one of our snowstorms and couldn't get out to find more. So another one was started. Then I went back to the silk quilt....and on and on and on and on it goes...... :roll: :lol:

DH asked when I was going to finish my WIPs. When I responded I would finish them someday his comment was, "MY dear, you're running out of somedays. Cheater needles are great for working those little ends of thread between the layers.
