I am usually in too much of a hurry to embroider the label w/ all of the info I want on a label.
Now that makes sense ... and yes the handwriting does seem to personalize.

However ... I can never seem to get the fabric to sit still even when pressed onto freezer paper and keep it from slipping as I write. So how do others get it to be as "solid" as writing on paper?
