Thread: Label info for quilts for sale?

I am getting quilts ready to take to a couple of craft shows and need to know, if I use a pattern, do I have to put the pattern designers name and her quilt name on the label.

Usually I give my quilts away and only put my name, date, city, quilt name and who I gave it to.

Any information you can give me will be greatly appreciated.

The law covers the 'hobby seller' right along with Martha Stewart. Buyers have a right to know what the quilt is made of and it's a simple thing to do.

I could 'follow/understand' most of the requirements if I was making an item - except for the 'country of origin' part - what does one say for that? (Say that the outer layer is cotton, printed in Pakistan; the batting is also cotton, grown in Texas, manufactured in Mexico; but that all the components were assembled on my sewing machine in Minnesota?)
