I have a huge bon of UFOs and some of them will never get done. I am trying to work thru the bin slowly. No idea how many. I have slowed way down on starting new projects and since a few years ago I do finish my new projects.

I do agree it is nice to work on more than on thing because it mixes things up a bit and keeps it from getting tedious. 

I don't "love" to but borders on either.  Those LOOOOONG seams are soooo verrrrrry borrrrrrring!!!

I don't use them. I found I always messed them up and it made the quilt wavy. I didn't need the extra hassle. I make mine edge to edge.  ¯\_(?)_/¯ Hey, I figure we all get to choose our own way! I'm with you!

I on the other hand feel almost physical discomfort leaving something before it is completed, even if I don't like it. 

I can leave most things unfinished or a piece held by the needle in the machine but I was trained that you ALWAYS make the bed!!  Even leaving a hotel room I fluff the bedding so it looks sloppily made but not in bunches and hanging off the end or pulled to one side!  NOPE

Probably about 8-10, but that's down from around 40 from two years ago.  I've been mostly trying to get my UFO's under some sort of control for the last couple of years.

I need to finish more and start less.

Way to go!!

we all just need an assembly line of quilters. each doing the part they love and passing the work on!!! completed quilts at the end of that line!

Yes! :D 

I found a lady at a nearby nursing home (friend of a friend) who was willing to take fabric...but thse's super picky. Only quilt store fabric, no batting, nothing that's backing, nothing cut up...oh boy!
