If I can remember when I started a quilt, I will put in that date plus the finished date. Sometimes I put:
Made by (my name), (place) in a class taught by (teacher's name) at (quilt store) in April, 2004. Finished May 2010. If I can't remember when or where it was started, I just put: Made by (my name), (place), April 2010. Sometimes, I will put a little story in about why I am making it and who for. But, I always add a label.
