Hey Barbara,
Save this Bash script to a file here:
~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Scripts/
#!/usr/bin/env bash
read -r -d '' asCmdStr <<'EOF'
tell application "BBEdit" to set fileList to file of text windows whose on
disk is true
repeat with i in fileList
set contents of i to quoted form of (POSIX path of (contents of i))
end repeat
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to linefeed
set fileList to fileList as text
return fileList
EOF
fileList=$(osascript -e "$asCmdStr");
shCMD="bbedit --project $fileList"
eval $shCMD
Give it a keyboard shortcut or run it by selecting it from the script menu.
Only windows that have been saved to disk will be placed in the new project.
The windows will NOT be closed after the project is created. At this time
that's an exercise for the user, although it's doable.
The project will NOT have been saved anywhere, so you'll have to do that
manually.

You can drag files OR BBEdit windows into a project using their icon proxy.
