I want to label the quilts I give away as gifts this year... and the ones I keep. I think it's nice for people to know the name of the quilt and adds to the homemade-love of the gift.
I label all of my quilts and so far have always used the printable fabric sheets from June Taylor. The labels are usually about 3" square. I have changed the information I put on the labels over the past year or so to include my city and state. I now have the name of the quilt, quilted and pieced by, city and state and date (for me this is usually the date I finish the quilt pre-labeling). If it is for a loved one I will put a little saying.
See attached pictures.
