I've been creating labels for my quilts for years- every one- even if it's just for the kids to use for forts & picnics...there are a wide variety of ways to create your labels-- in *my book* the least amount of information should be-name of quilt, your name, city, state & date. I've written special messages on labels, acknowledged special occasions, special people, if I use a commercial pattern I include the pattern designers name; if I have someone else quilt it I include that name- I make quilt labels by designing them on the computer-then printing them off, writing them onto fabric with permanent micron pens, embroidery, I've printed special pictures onto fabric-then written the label over the image...your creativity is your only limit- sometimes my label is large, sometimes small, sometimes hidden behind a hanging sleeve- or written as part of a block or design on the front- even written along the binding so a *story* goes all the way around the quilt. it does not matter how you choose to make your label- only that you do.
