Keith,
You should look at the APQS George machine. It's a sit down longarm-you quilt just like on a domestic machine. You can stll touch the fabric and have a larger throat space!

I'm really interested in seeing everyone's answers. I thought I was getting too many going at once, but I see I fit right in. I tend to work from start to finish on quilts, but I have several going at once for various reasons.
I have three quilt tops in process, one finished and ready to be quilted (by my daughter-in-law), about 3 that I'm "assembling". By this I mean I've done the big picture design work and am working on the individual design items--such as embroidery designs--needed for it and gathering the pieces. Then there are the other 50 or more that I have actually put on an ongoing, ever growing list....probably about 7 actually in process then, and more than 50 in mind.
Gee, now that you mention it, I don't have time to go to work this week. I guess I'll have to call in and tell my boss I can't come to work, I'm too BIZZY! (Ha, just dreaming of course--I DO have to pay my power bill and house payment so I can keep on quilting). Hee hee hee.
Cheers. Betty Jo

I'm embarassed to say how many things I have in progress, but I'll tell how I keep track.
I keep a little notebook and different pages list:
Quilts to finish (bind and label)
Quilt tops to quilt
Quilts in progess (piecing or applique)
Quilts in the planning stages (collecting fabrics)
Quilts to do someday
It's exciting to cross things off or add them to a different page.
I also recently made my "bucket list" with things I want to do in life such as whale watch, see the Grand Canyon, ride a horse on a beach, etc.

I have a project in every car and every room. Yes even the bathroom. It is the project of picking out the next project. If I see a pattern or a fabric I like I put it in the bathroom and look at it while I bath and get ready or what ever else. Plus that is the room with the best light usually (you know vanitity) Right now my problem is all my projects are stalled due to a broken machine. This is very frustrating by the way. I did try a new Babylock the other day. I can say on that machine I just might learn to like applique. :P
