I say there are three phases of DONE in finishing a quilt.
TOP DONE (pieced, applique'd, stitched), is "done". D1
Sometimes, I just have to count it done when the piecing is finished, because I have to add it to that pile of quilt tops just waiting for the quilter (me)!
QUILTED is "done-done". D2
Working on my own projects is a nice way to relax and just quilt-doodle or practice new freemotion quilting motifs. There's something so satisfying in adding texture and dimension to a quilt ~ it brings it to life!
BOUND and labeled is "done-done-done". D3
I have to admit, I love putting on the binding. *Ü* But I'm not always the best at getting a detailed label on my quilts. I figure if I document them on social media, that counts for something!
I'm loving my little Purdy Bird quilt even more now that it's "done-done-done" and I have it hung up where I can enjoy it every day! The Purdy Bird pattern is by Allison Richter, and can be found at her website, campbellsoupdiary.com. See some of my tips when I made mine HERE.
Beautiful, and your quilting makes it just exceptional!!! Love it!! Hugs, H
