    Wow! You're productive! Start sorting and lining them up, first ones should be the ones that are closest to being done.

    I do know what I am starting with.

    1. Super Fast Pink Jelly Roll quilt for my Great Niece.

    2. Baby quilt, Single Irish Chain, Focal fabric that has Monkeys.
    Sadiemae, that sounds wonderful! And what a great idea to go ahead and declutter your whole house! I've been doing that as well, and wow what a difference it makes. You'll be better and more energized once that's done, and your home will look bigger! Your projects are perfect to start off with, and yes you'll find more as you clear out 'stuff'.
    Blessings,

    Thats what I have found so far...think I will stop looking!! lol
    Yes, michelehuston...you've got a list! Before there's order, there's always a bigger mess, but it will get better. I'd tackle those quillows and baby quilt first, then the rest. If you want to stop at 15, that's fine. You can look for more once these are done, if that suits you.

    I'll get cracking on finding all of my wips & ufos and I'll post a 'before' picture along with my count, and my priority list. Let's all post our lists & count by January 1st, and a 'before' picture would be great as well.

    How does the last day (or last Friday night) of every month sound for an 'all night PJ party?' Or you can pick a better night, just let me know. we'll quilt away the night in comfort!

    Blessings to all,
    MaryAnna
