Default Converting lawn to veg/flower bed

Hi,

ISTR during a discussion earlier in the year about how to get rid of grass
cuttings there was a method proposed for turning lawn into border.

This involved just covering the lawn with compost etc. and leaving it for a
while.

I am considering converting some lawn to beds, and have this years patio
pots of used potting compost to dispose of.

Is now a suitable time to spread this on part of the lawn to convert it into
a bed?

I presume that there is also digging involved eventually to loosen up the
compacted earth (probably in the spring when the soil is a bit dryer :-)

Any other pointers for this strategy?

TIA

Dave R
