When I first started quilting, I came across an article that said that the Amish started selling their quilts when they would return home from their Sunday meetings to find that their homes had been broken into and their quilts were stolen. The article cautioned quilters to label their quilt in ink or attach a label BEFORE quilting so that the actual quilting held the label in place. Then, it couldn't be torn off later.
