I label all of my quilts. I started out with labels on a purchased label panel and a pigma pen. Then I started making labels on my computer and printing them on Printer Treasures fabric. I love these labels as I add a picture that goes with the name of the quilt. Will my labels fade? Probably. I have been quilting only 4 years. So far, none of my labels have faded and my daughter washes the quilts I have made for her foster children many times.
