About the label, I just start a new Word document, layout photo (if I am using one) and wording, slide a sheet of printable fabric into my printer, and I've got a label. Since these fabric sheets are pretty expensive (I HATE the inexpensive ones!), I try to do two at once, side by side. That way when I cut off that area, I can still use the other 1/2 of the fabric later on. The label on the right is for the next quilt I'm finishing for a different GD. Hope this helps you do some for yourself.
