Yes, you can use scarves. I have done it before but can't find a picture. I was given pictures of the person as well, many of which she was wearing the scarves. I used stabilizer and surrounded some of the pictures with the corresponding scarves. For my label, I did not put my name. Instead, I put "When this you see, remember me." then the person's name, birthday, and date of death. Or just simply 'Mom' after the phrase on the label.
As a side note, if any of you have loved ones who have dimentia or Alzheimer's, I have placed that person's hand on a permanent ink pad while they were still around then made handprints on both pretty card stock and also muslin. Using the same phrase from my label, as mentioned above, made handprint Christmas cards from the card stock handprints, and then once they are gone, I incorporate the muslin prints into memory quilts and everyone loves them both.
