I print them out on my jet printer. I choose the art I want, insert into my word processing program, type in all the info I want to include. Then I iron a piece of good muslin or light fabric color of choice to a sheet of 8.5 x 11 paper; trim the leading edge for perfection. Then I just print out what I need! I use black, as color washes out. Cut the label to the size I need, leaving at least 1" all around the print and graphics. Let it sit a short time. Iron. Wash in cold water. Iron. Wash in hot water with a dot of soap. Iron. Ink still all there? Good. Stitch to back of quilt with 1/4 - 1/2" seam allowance turned under. If I want color in the art, I use perma-pens
