I love small projects.  By small, I mean ones that you can finish in anywhere from one week to a month.  And portability is a bonus with small craft.  I would say anything that takes longer than a month definitely qualifies as a big project.  I usually have about three or four ongoing small projects and I just happened to finish a whole bunch!
