UFO Sightings!!

I walked through the house tonight and was a little surprised (and embarrassed) by the UFOs I found scattered about.

• Penguin parts in the living room.
• A dishtowel requiring three rows & blocking until complete.
• A cowl that just needs the ends woven in and trimmed off.
• The quilt blocks that just requires the top half and bottom half (one seam!) be stitched and pressed.
• The two snap bags that are halfway complete (hidden under the January 2012 BOM).  

And that is just what is plainly visible!  It doesn't include the WIPs stuffed inside a closet or sewing basket like:

• The quilt top that needs pressed and mended before I call to schedule long-arming.
• A skirt that needs a hem (not that it would fit now anyway--2004?)
• "Footprints in the Sand" cross stitch (easily circa 1993)
• A flower needlepoint (likely to end up a pillow
• The second in a pair of tea towels
• A Care Bears cross stitch Christmas stocking
• I'm sure there is at least something else that isn't done!

As much as I want to look forward to what to start next (like my knit-along or crochet-along or the two twin quilts I have planned with the Moda Independence Trail fabric line pre-cuts I have), I suppose I should finish a thing or two (or three) before I start anything else.  

Any ideas on a good incentive plan?  Am I the only one with this kind of problem?
