I use a piece of muslin, iron down a hem, use my vine design on the sewing machine, in a contrasting color and hem it and make a finished border. Then I use my disappearing ink pen and draw lines and put my message on it; who to, little saying (my last one said "Thank you for everything, friend and neighbor", my name address and date. Then I pinned it down to the lower left backside and whipstitched it down and VOILA! my label. Of course, I did buy some labels not too long ago------"It took forever", but those are going to go on my quilts. Edie
