I like to put labels on my quilts, but I don't have a way to do that by myself. You have gotten some good ideas. I have done 2 different things. I ordered some small satin labels from Jennifer's Jewels
http://jjlabels.com The are about 1.5" x 2" with a little picture and my name. Then I mark the date on them. The price was pretty good and the labels are nice. There is a lady here on the board who makes very nice labels. I have gotten 9 or 10 from her and I am very happy with them. Her id is sewnsewer2.
