Oh, there are always UFO's in my house...right now there are 10. On top of that there are over 10 piles of fabric already picked for quilts! Why do I have so many? I lead a group of quilters that make quilts for people in need.
ReplyDeleteI have at least 21 ufos, there may be more but I stopped counting (It is actually my goal for 2012 to finish as many as possible, I have 14/35 done!!)
ReplyDeleteI'm a follower
ReplyDeleteOh - do I really have to admit how many UFOs I have? Okay, well, 5 at least that I should do and about 100 in my head that I wanna do... Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI just signed up to follow :-)
ReplyDeleteI currently have 0 unfinished projects. I'm about to start one so if you had asked me tomorrow I'd say 1!
ReplyDeleteOh, I have way too many UFO's. Ones currently on the pile next to the quilter are 7 or 8 quilts.
ReplyDeleteThe number of UFOs/WIPs I have? Oh. Um. Probably 10. And that's not counting the stacks of fabric that have mental "I know I should do something with that" notes attached! Yikes. ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for hte chance to win!
I think about 15, counting knitting, crochet, cross stitch, and sewing/quilting projects. I do work on them, just not all at once!

I have 2 projects I'm working on this week so they won't remain UFOs for long; one more in the closet that's been a UFO for about 6 years now! Thanks for chance to win this book! (EMAIL: marshudson at comcast dot net)
ReplyDeleteUmmm I don't know. 10 to 20!? But I do love to bounce around with them!
ReplyDeleteI think I have two..one has the binding on...I just need to sew it...the other I haven't done much with...so it sits. =) Thanks for a chance to win.
ReplyDeleteSadly, I have at least 30. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
ReplyDeleteI have 3. One is at least basted. :) Thank you for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI have at least 5 wips currently...
ReplyDeleteI have 4 or 5 very very unfinished UFOs...some with only fabric and a plan...i should work on that...
ReplyDeleteI just went on a UFO rampage so technically just one - I have to find appropriate stuffing for a floor cushion but other than that, I'm looking for my next project.
ReplyDeleteI am a bizarre quilter.. I start a quilt, finish a quilt, then make another quilt. :P Weird, huh? So right now I have just the quilt I'm working on. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting a giveaway!

I've been making my way through my UFO's so i think my total is around 5? still a bunch but much less than it was!
ReplyDeleteAt the moment there are 9 ufo's in my basket. Hopefully those will be finished up in the near future!
ReplyDeleteI have a little notebook to keep me on track with my UFOs - I think I have 21 on the go at the moment, but I want them all finished by the end of 2012. At the top of the list is a quilt I started for my own bed about a year ago, a baby quilt for a friend who is expecting (I better hurry up) and a lovely Tula Pink Granny Square quilt for another friend. This book would add to my UFOs, but I am already mentally picking out some perfect fabrics...hey, on the up side - at least it would help me use up some stash!
ReplyDeleteHello, I'm not doing too bad at 6 UFOs. Thanks for the chance to win. Linda
ReplyDeleteThank you - I have at least 4 or 5 UFO's!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, how many UFO's. I'm doing better but I have...hmmm....9. Ok, that's not so bad. I think I need to get on those seriously though.
ReplyDeleteI'm now a follower!!! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI think I have about 8 UFOs waiting to be finished. At least 7 more than I want but I don't feel too bad after reading some of the other comments. Thanks!
Deleteunfinished-- too many!! Most are garments I cut out for my daughter and never sewed together. I am guessing 12 or 13....

I believe I have only 2 UFOs, one quilt that needs binding/washing and one that needs basting/quilting/binding/washing..
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance !
I have just 2 UFO's! And I plan to make that 1 by the end of June! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI'm not actually sure how many UFOs I have, but it's more than 20. Maybe I should finish some of them?!!!
ReplyDeleteI think I have about 7 unfinished projects right now, yikes better get working.
ReplyDeleteI definitely don't want to count all my UFOs. I know for sure that I have blocks completed for 3 quilts, and I have 2 QALs that I'm way behind and only half was finished on. Other than those 5 big ones I have several embroidery pieces waiting to be made into something, and a few garment patterns cut but not sewn... so I could safely say maybe 10?
ReplyDeleteI have to count? Ummmmmm, at least 8, everything from quilting to clothes to crochet. Some are over a year old...
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness - I can think of 6 without stopping to really count (because if I stop to count, it could get scarier!)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the chance!
lwghosts at yahoo dot com
I have only 2 UFOs at the moment because I spent the first part of the year trying to get the number down to 0.
ReplyDeleteCan I just quantify it as a storage tub full so that I don't have to get depressed with counting?! :)
ReplyDeleteI currently have about 7 UFO's in a bag waiting to be finished
ReplyDeleteI'm a new follower
ReplyDeleteI think I have around 6. I have vowed to myself I won't start something new til they all are finished. I doubt the ALL part will hold up but maybe I will get through 3 or so.
ReplyDeleteI just started following you :)
ReplyDeleteI have some many UFO's that I'm not able to count them (several quilts, pillows, even bags - lots of unfinished goodies). I'm terrible with finishing my projects:(
ReplyDeleteI have 3 UFO's on the go. . .one should be finished tonight though. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI'm not telling you how many UFO'd I have on the go, it's too embarrassing. ;-) More than 10 is all anyone needs to know...
ReplyDeleteThanks for this giveaway! I have 3 UFO right now (I hope only 1 next week:-)
ReplyDeleteCheers

cyrile.saura(at)gmail(dot)com
Ah only 5 UFOs at this particular time. That's pretty good for me!
ReplyDeleteI only have 1 UFO because I try to finish one thing before I go on to the next. If I don't I find I lose my enthusiasm for the first project. Its quite hard to keep to this but at the moment its working!

Too many to count! Definitely a two digit number.
ReplyDeleteI love Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks magazines and haven't got the newest one yet. Thanks for a great give away.
Oh dear, I don't even want to think about how many UFOs I have! At least 15!! Ugh!
ReplyDeleteI usually finish one project before starting another but for some reason right now I have THREE UFOs!
ReplyDeleteI have too many UFO's which I should do and not start new ones
ReplyDeleteReal ufos, or the ones in my brain (like, oh,I want to make that and that and that...) At least 7 big quilts and maybe 10 smaller projects.
ReplyDeleteOooo...about 10-12, but I worked on three of them today. Does that make it less scary? And here you are offering a giveaway to add to my pile. THANK YOU!
ReplyDeleteI have about 7 UFO's right now. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeletefive.
ReplyDeleteI think I have around 12 at the moment, but I actually work on them every now and them, so I would call them work in progress instead!, ha,ha. Thank you for the chance!
ReplyDeleteOh lovely! Those magazines are just great!
ReplyDeleteI just starting quilting so I only have one UFO - the quilt I'm currently working on. However, I knitted for years and I have a ridiculous number of knitted UFOs around the house.
ReplyDeleteUh oh! So many haha, about 5 right now =/ x
ReplyDeleteOh, what a mean question! Let's see...I have...3? Wait, surely there are more! That doesn't sound right at all..LOL, well anyway, thanks so much for your giveaway -- I've been eyeing that magazine forever!
ReplyDeletePut me on the spot. I can think of 12 right off the bat but I know I'm not remembering all of them
ReplyDeleteI think I have 5 UFOs right now - ugh.
ReplyDeletei have around 5 ufo now
ReplyDeleteMore than I care to admit! At least 5 that I am admitting to :)
ReplyDeleteI estimate I have at least 10 fabric-related UFOs. I love starting projects!
ReplyDeleteI stopped counting after 23...
ReplyDeleteLike Fabraholic before me, I stopped counting at 15!
ReplyDeleteHaha! I am doing okay, right now I only have five. Two of them are big quilts, but hopefully they will be finished this summer.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid to count but I think it is 6...aghhh. A couple of quilt tops and no backs plus two bee blocks. Of course this doesn't count my knitting UFOs:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great giveaway!
jodym7atyahoo.com
I only have 3, not that bad...
ReplyDeleteOh, that would be a great resource! If I counted correctly, I have 9, 8 quilts and 1 scarf. I have 5 projects not yet started that I hope to finish this month.
ReplyDeleteThanks for offering this magazine!
(hrmaris at yahoo dot com)
OMG I'm afraid to count. I'm guessing that I have at least six quilt tops folded up and in need of sandwiching to quilt. Add one wall hanging on my design wall and two garment projects... OK well at least it's not a dozen!
ReplyDeleteI have 5 ufos right now... 2 pairs of kids pj's, a shirt for my son, a quilted pillow and a lap quilt that needs quilting. Thanks for a chance to win this great quilt magazine! :)

ReplyDeleteI have about 7 ufos at the moment.
ReplyDeleteHave a kreative week.
Hugs from Norway
I only have about 3 UFO's and they should probably be called "will never be finished". Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI would say too many to count... Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI have five UFO's; finished one up yesterday, on to the next! Thanks for the chance at your giveaway.
ReplyDeleteOnly 1! But I am going to change that very soon ;-)
ReplyDeleteI think I have about 5 UFO's. Not too bad!
ReplyDeleteamyd14_1999@yahoo.com
I have dozens of UFOs. They might all get finished, someday.
ReplyDeleteI only have two -- an embroidery-to-go bag that got pushed aside and a quilt that made me frustrated because it wasn't colorful enough for the summer! I know I'll get them done eventually though - I hate UFOs!
ReplyDeleteOnly one right now, but a few more in queque
ReplyDeleteProbably 7 and hundreds in my head!
ReplyDeleteUFO's - about 5 and WiP's about 10... I keep starting stuff but I do have a good turnaround - those 10 are a rolling 10 :) The 5 on the other hand will probably remain on the UFO list for a little while longer!
ReplyDeleteUFOs - 2 and WIPs - 1 Two of these will be done... no, really! They will!! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI am a new follower - thanks for the extra chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI have two UFO a purse and a quilt. buggystevenson@aol.com
ReplyDeleteI think I have 6 UFO's right now...there are most likely more I've repressed. :)
ReplyDeleteI think 6 or so??? I try not to count them
ReplyDeleteI couldn't even tell you how many UFO/WiPs I have going. I am terrible about starting projects & never finishing. I've been working on finishing things up the past few weeks, but the list doesn't seem to be getting any shorter still. O_o
ReplyDeleteI'm a new follower
ReplyDeleteI have three ufo's right now.
ReplyDeleteI have too many UFOs to count right now.
ReplyDeleteI hate to admit this, but I have no idea how many ufo's I have I have so many. I was hoping to clean some of them up this year, but new projects keep getting in the way.
ReplyDeleteI am a new follower.
ReplyDeleteYikes! I have 6 or 7 UFOs right I think. If i looked around my sewing room i might find more...Wait I just thought of 2 more. Eeek! ;)
ReplyDeletekirkwood0419(at)hotmail(dot)com
UFO's ...um, too many ? What's really bad is when your child outgrows a project by a few sizes before you finish it ! (Yes, I've experienced that !)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
10 + is all i will admit to... stand back as i get struck by lightning
ReplyDeleteYikes...I have at least 6. 3 quilts, 2 baby bibs, and one stuffed animal dragon (3/4 made).
ReplyDeleteI probably have more than I can count, but 8 in various stages of almost being finished! Hooray!
ReplyDeleteI honestly have no idea how many UFO's I have sitting around. I lost track a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway! Let's see . . . I think I have 5 UFO quilts. I'm not sure if that's exact or not, but that's what I'm able to count a this point!
ReplyDeleteI have 1 unfinished project at the moment.
ReplyDeleteMaybe 3 or so? Not counting the ones that I am working on right now. But I just cleaned house last month and gave 6 quilt tops to the charity because I knew that I wasn't going to finish them.
ReplyDeleteI have too many UFOS to count. Well, not really, but if I stopped to count them, I would probably cry. Let's just say I can think of more than seven. I'd love to win your giveaway- thanks for participating!
ReplyDeleteI have about 7 UFO's at least. But I only just started quilting last year and probably that is out of 8 projects that I have done. All in various stages of completion. Even my first quilt needs to be quilted.
ReplyDeleteI have 2 sewing-related UFOs currently. If we include things involving yarn, however, well.... yeah. D:
ReplyDeleteI have a good handful of ufos and another handful of work in progress-es.
ReplyDeleteI have about 6 UFOs right now. Thanks for the opportunity to win your giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how many UFOs I have, but I guess there's more than 10. I'll try to finish some in between new projects.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win!
at last count, i had 15 UFOs.
ReplyDeletei am a new follower :) Thanks for the chance to win
ReplyDeleteI can honestly say that I do not know how many UFOs I have around here. If we add together the knitting, sewing, and painting it would be a scary number.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your generosity in this Giveaway. I have 8 UFOs i.e. projects already started, at the moment.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless

They are all over the place here. Maybe 8?
ReplyDeleteI'm following too.
ReplyDeleteI think I have over 20!
ReplyDeleteI am a new follower!
ReplyDeleteI think at this time I am doing pretty well with my UFOs. By my last count, I only have six! Thanks for the chance to win. :)
ReplyDeleteTo be honest I am pretty good, I only have a couple and I am definitely going to finish them this year....!!
ReplyDeleteI try not to let it get out of control & at the moment only have one UFO & it's mainly because I'm waiting on more fabric to finish it. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteHmm.. I think at least 10. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI have about five to ten unfinished projects; I haven't counted them recently. Thank you for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteAm afraid to count them up lets just say 10+ okay.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win.
More than I'd like to admit. I've gotten a bit of sewing ADD lately.
ReplyDeletemy UFOs: 7 coasters, 1 throw pillow, 1 kid quilt, 1 tee for me, and 2 curtains! lol.
ReplyDeleteCan I plead the 5th? Too many! Less than 10 so that's good, I guess! Most of them would only take another hour or two so what am I waiting for?!
ReplyDeleteMore than I want to admit too!
ReplyDeleteProbably over 20!!
I have at least 3 that are WIP's, but I also have a bunch of fabric pulled for future projects that I haven't started yet.
ReplyDeleteI think I only have 2, but many WIPs.
ReplyDeleteI have a draw full most of which have been abandoned. Only 3 that I'm actively working on.
ReplyDeleteI have 6 or 7 quilts that are works in progress. One just needs the binding hand stitched on the back so we'll get that finished soon!
ReplyDeleteJust 2 at the moment.
ReplyDeleteBut soooo many things I am itching to start!
hannah dot kitching at hotmail dot co dot uk
At least 3.
ReplyDeletesntbosch(at)msn(dot)com
So I really have to admit that? At least 12. Maybe more. Eep!
ReplyDeleteI have 2 finished quilt tops with yet unsewn fabrics for their backs, 1 finished quilt top with no plan yet for the back, 1 almost finished quilt top, 1 jelly roll quilt started, 1 Christmas sampler quilt with fabric cut and bagged by square, 1 potholder that needs binding, so...at least 7.
ReplyDeleteOh, I can't count them all!
ReplyDeleteI am following you..
ReplyDeleteI have about 5 WIPS
Oh dear, I'm not sure how many I have. I think around 3 crochet wips, 6 sewing wips, 2 embroidery wips, 1 cross stitch, 1 jewellery and 1 glass, so that's 14. That does'nt sound so bad, I@m pretty sure there's more
ReplyDeleteno sewing ones but i have about 5 knitting ones ;) raineoc@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteCan I say like...more than 5? I have a container of UFO's but... to be fair, I have also finished some (even this year). 2 steps forward 3 steps back. Thank you for this giveaway.
ReplyDeleteOh boy, at least 5 that I can think of! Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteI don't really have any UFO's, but about 8 WIP's. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteNone that are quilts, but other sewing/embroidery projects? At least a dozen or so.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance!
3 for right now! christina112358 at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteufo's that funny. I have a quilt I am getting close to done with and a couple I want to start but haven't yet so I guess they are not UFO's.
ReplyDeleteI have 7 that are UFOs currently. I'm feeling really good though because I just finished 3.
ReplyDeleteLet's say 20 UFO's - definitely more than I'd like:) I haven't purchased this magazine yet. Would love to win a copy! Thanks for your generous giveaway!
ReplyDeleteUgg, maybe 6 or 7! And I had said I wasn't going to start anything new til these were all done. But Of course I was not true to my word! I would love this magazine! I've tried to win it other times. Almost bought it the other day. Maybe one more chance....and if not...I'm off to the store.
ReplyDeleteHmmm. Define UFO! Seriously, I don't even think I could count. I have several quilt tops that need quilting, but I just want to start other projects!
ReplyDeleteTwo. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI have 11 UFOs on my list... but about a million other things I've been playing around with or thinking about starting. Thanks for the generous giveaway! akmajor(at)gmail(dot)com
ReplyDelete• • • What's a UFO?
ReplyDeletekidding... I have a bunch in all different stages. I would have to say about 15.
Er...um...How many? Well, I, uh, hmm...I *think* it's 9? Could be more. I'm just not sure :( Thanks for the lovely giveaway
ReplyDeleteI have 3 tops waiting to be quilted....and two more in the piecing stage.
ReplyDeleteFollowing, following:-)
ReplyDeletea million i would say . we just moved
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
I have 5 WIPs: 1 knitting, 2 quilt tops, and 2 bags. Not as bad as I thought! Thanks for participating in Giveaway Day!
ReplyDeleteI've currently got 9 UFOs on my list, but I'm pretty sure there are more that I've lost track of.
ReplyDeleteI'm a follower.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a lot of UFOs -- maybe 4. However, I have a lot of projects that I want to start. Too many quilts in my mind, but not enough time.
ReplyDeleteI have about 10 ufos right now, not including the kits I haven't started yet.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteOnly got two projects more WIP than UFO
ReplyDeleteI have 3 UFO's. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteHow many UFO's I have .. geesh, it's well over 50 maybe even 100 .... Shame on me!!
ReplyDelete1. A set of day of the week embroidered dishtowels, two days left to go.
ReplyDelete2. 16 nine inch granny squares (12 more I'm swapping for another 12)
3. 8 five inch Half Cabin blocks
4. fabric for a not yet cut-out panel quilt
5. Untold number of little knitting projects, mostly hats.
I have at least 8 UFO's.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to say only three but one of those is six years old.
ReplyDeleteFor a change, I'm not too far ahead of myself. I only have 5 projects on the go. They're quite different from each other, so I move between them depending on my mood and how sharp I feel.
ReplyDeleteI'm embarrassed to say, let's see if I can even count that high :) a needle point that I've been working on for 10 yrs, a latch hook, 3 knitting projects and one crochet afghan. I'm hoping to ad a quilt to the list. . .should be down to 2knitting projects before bedtime tonight :)
ReplyDeleteI have probably 5 or 6 and depending how deep you dig in the closet and drawers in my sewing room you may find more!
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing I have about 10 UFOs here.
ReplyDeleteI prefer not to know..
ReplyDeleteanabelsu@yahoo.es
I just finished a lap quilt tonight I think I only have 2 or so left that tops are finished just need to quilt and bind.

ReplyDeleteI now follow your blog
ReplyDeleteI don't have any UFOs at the moment. I do however have absolutely loads lined up for me to start!
ReplyDeleteI'm a brand new quilter, working on my first ever quilt, so I don't have any quilting UFOs (yet). But knitting? Oh boy. Socks, a blanket, a sweater, those gloves I'd forgotten about...
ReplyDeleteI followed you, too :)
ReplyDeleteOh dear, do I have to? Well about 3 baby clothes projects, 6 aprons, a quilt and maybe some other things as well. Sigh. But I love them all!
ReplyDeleteI have 4 tops that need quilting. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI refuse to count my UFO's. However, I did find one the other day that I started in 1998. Think I should probably get on with that one.
ReplyDeleteAt least three...but my to do list is as long as my arm!
ReplyDeletesntbosch(at)msn(dot)com
Ooh, I want to make that matryoshka block! I have around (without running out & looking at my list) 21 UFOs ranging from a quilt to bind to some little purses cut out but not sewn.
ReplyDeleteUgh I have maybe 7 or 8 UFO quilting projects alone! Not to mention all the other clothes/accessories/jewelry things I have in the works and home dec projects! I keep on crafting!
ReplyDeleteI have about 15 knitting ufos and 2 sewing ufos.
ReplyDeleteOMG...do I really have to confess....mmmm. I would say 10. gasp! 2 quilts I am working on hand quilting on. One quilt top I am still sewing. Basting a small one for mothers day right now. And the rest are WIP knitting....but THEY WILL ALL BE DONE! promise. soon.....
ReplyDeleteDepending on which pile of fabric I'm looking at, there are so many projects I want to make!
ReplyDeleteI'd hate to put a number to it but around 10, yikes.
