the rules about textile labeling is really nothing new- no reason to become indignant about it- the laws were put in place decades ago- to protect us from purchasing things that may be harmful---
and some people have serious allergies to different fibers- would you not feel horrible if you made a quilt and used something in it- did not identify it- and someone died because of that allergy???
i would be devestated!
these laws are world wide (although some countries are alot stricter than the u.s. about it)
if you visit the About.quilting site and search for labeling your crafts link you can read all you need to know- but it is not a new (big brother) being nosy issue===it is world wide safety measures...
