Remove the freezer paper and then I usually sew leftover strips from the quilt top around the outside of the label, before hand stitching it in place on a lower corner. If it was pieced by one person and fmq by another, I'd include those names as well. So far I've done all my fmq myself.
You can draw lines, w/ permanent marker on the paper side, of the freezer paper, before before you iron it to the muslin. Then when ready to print, I'll place it on a window in the daylight, and the lines will show thru, so you can print straight. You could place it on a light box instead if you have one of those. I also plan out on paper the order and placement of the words, so don't mess up on the fabric and have to start over.
