UFOs abound!

This fall UFOs keep popping up.  I'd like to think that alien beings will just drop into my quilt room and finish them, but sadly, that hasn't happened yet.  I am not sure what it is about the starting that just calls to me. Is it the new fabric? A new method of creating an old block? I am not sure.
The current count is 56. That number seems HUGE, but then I subtract the 20 plus tops that just need quilted and 36 doesn't seem so big. Except I have a longarm machine, so it falls on me to quilt them, so then I have to go back up to 56.
I think I will  have to prioritize, determine which ones could be finished relatively quickly and move on from there.  That will be my goal for the fall retreat. . .to determine which projects could become quilts in the least amount of time and maybe even get some quilting done.  I could have a binding retreat and just tack binding down. . .NO WAY! I will sew, sew, sew and work to finish, finish, finish!
