I have a embroidery machine and do it on that but some use the computer to print a label and some just use a pen and write it out or hand embroider it.
I am so sick of my first quilt that I have decided not to label it so nobody remembers me for that! I will make another one for my DGD when she gets a big girl bed. I was given flannel (before I had any stash) and made do with what I was given. I wasn't sure if she was going to be a boy or girl so it's pretty generic. Now, I want girly for her...LOL I found flannel kind of hard to work with also. Maybe just because it was my first time ever doing anything like a quilt before. Now I am hooked and know a lot of stuff I should have known making the stupid thing...LOL Thank you Quilting Board!
