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!
