I put the dates on the label and no information about myself...I make the quilt about that person and no reference to me. I've had several people like that I don't put the birth date and death date front and center. I use sleeves and every part of shirts.

They may have some special momentoes they would like included too. I also like the idea of adding pictures. I think the name, birth & death dates added somewhere is a must. Just my thoughts....
