I made a quilt for my nephew and his wife when I do the label do I put Kelly (nephews name) and Marilyn or do I put Marilyn and Kelly? Thanks for the help.

either way would be acceptable. sometimes it is thought the (family) member's name is first- then their spouse; some always think the man's name should come first (as in Mr. & Mrs.) and some believe the female name should be first. i have always based it on the same way i would address an envelope to the same couple.

His name, then hers, after all he is your nephew first.
