I am famous or is it infamous for re-dos! If I don't like it in whatever stage, yes even after it is bound, I will take it apart.

I also will rip apart if I do not like how it looks. That said, I always sleep on it overnight, and/or have a trusted friend look at it before I rip it apart. Sometimes after sleeping on it I find that I like it better than I thought. Also have to consider the personality of the person I am giving it to. Sometimes I cannot like a quilt that the intended receiver will love.

yes I redo if I am unhappy, just recently undone a queen size quilt I had almost finished because of puckers in the back. Requilted it and looks a lot better no puckers.

I'm a "re-doer" too. I'm ripping the quilting stitches out of a wall hanging now. I don't like the way the stiches look and I don't like the batting. Luckily its only a wall hanging, not a king-sized quilt LOL!
