Happy when I have finished the quilt and I know there are mistakes, but they won't be noticed by the receiver

What makes YOU happy?

I am happy when I finish the binding and all the corners are straight and square.

Happiness is working on a scrap quilt , wondering the whole time " am I going to like this?" and then when the blocks are finished , and put them up on a design wall ... stepping back .. and having it better than you ever imagined.

I'm happy when I realize that my chores for the day are done, dinner is planned, ironing is caught up so now I'm free to quilt.

Chuckling in agreement! I know there will inevitably be mistakes as I'm going along, and I'm just sure they will be seen afterwards. I'm beyond happy, pretty much ecstatic, when I can't even find them myself when the quilt is
done!!!
