Hi Aggie,

No observable "project" limitations that I can see. Projects are just
folders in the Eagle directory. Make several, if you want. I have, just to
have a backup of my efforts at a certain level. It turns out that's not
necessary, as Eagle makes 'em for you. Open first one, then another, go
back and forth. No problems that I can see. You can only open project
(board and schematic) at a time. Be sure to close both from the Eagle
control panel (save and exit). Real limitation is the 3" X 4" board size.
Have fun!
