I try to label all the quilts I make, because as much as I would like to say I would remember which quilt I did when and for whom, but that's not true. I make a simple label "made with (love, in the shape of a heart) by Margaret Dabrowski, Lowell, MA for a special person, baby or more often than not, "made for the Sarringar-Larson Family Reunion, July 4, and the year" - I make one every other year, and it gets raffled off to some lucky family member, although no one in my immediate family has won, I'd like to win one too. I keep it simple, as I don't have a fancy embroidery machine, but I want to make a record for posterity, and hopefully in some small way, I will be remembered too. I guess that's a selfish reason, but I'd like to know that somewhere, someone is sleeping under a quilt that I have made.
