    I don't mind at all. Actually, I'm a little flattered.

    What did you do on the edges of the labels? Did you treat them somehow to prevent raveling?
    I cut the labels twice as long and used fusible web on one half, then folded over and fused together. For the embroidered initials it also covered the back side of the stitching.

    What loft batting did you use? It looks like more than low loft....
    You're right,it is higher. It was something I had on hand and didn't make the FMQ easy. But it did make a nice fluffy quilt.

    What a beautiful quilt. I love your quilting too. That is a great idea with the labels. I'm going to try that on my next quilt.

    Very nice and the labels are a great idea...kind of search and find the messages. Your quilting looks great, as sharonb said it's reversible.
