I made the squares with Sue on them and then penciled my lines on the completed top. I cross hatched up to Sue and then stopped. Here's a pic of the back of the quilt.....the area where the name is is the back of a Sue. I did it this way instead of a label cause this one was going to the nursing home for my Grannie. There may have been a better way to do it but I did it like this cause it seemed most reasonable to me. Like I said this was my first and I taught myself as I went.
