Just recently I was finally able to figure out the software program for using the embroidery features on my computer. Now I feel like a kid in a candy store! I want to make labels for my quilts using this feature. Without having to "recreate" the wheel, I am wondering if any of you have a favorite font/style you use for the wording on your quilts. I have only used one so far, and it seemed a little big. By asking this question, I thought it might save me some time and thread. Thanks for your help!

my machine's software does not name the font, but i like the one that is like Comic Sans MS. It allows me to make the words smaller and I don't really care for the fancy scripts so much... personal preference

Thanks, I will give it a try. I just wasn't sure where to start on a smaller, less dense font.

Is this software you downloaded or bought?

Here are some alphabets that are made for quilt labels. You would have to do your own layout, but they stitch out nicely.

Thanks for the link. I took a quick look at it and it looks like something I may be able to use. Don't mind doing my own layout.
