I also enjoy using the Serpentine stitch and adjust the widths/lengths until it works for me. I have used the lettering for labels but actually prefer to handwrite mine with Pigma pen for a more personal feel.
I do like options though 😀
Your mention of labels gave me an idea. Even though I don’t have any alphabet stitches, I could see doing a decorative stitch around the label to appliqué it onto the quilt.

All of you are coming up with lots of creative ideas I hadn’t thought of! Thanks for the inspiration!
