Now, if I could figure a way to sew the label ON with the machine....I can't hand sew worth a darn and I know the label will come off after a few washings. Right now I sew it on a corner, anchored in the sewing of the binding but I don't like leaving the one edge unsewn.....it's a real ""toe catcher"!
I sew mine on entirely by machine catching the raw edges with attaching the binding and then use matching thread or invisible thread to straight stitch the rest. Most of the time it blends right in with the quilting and you don't even see it without looking for it.
