Over time I have learned to make this process easier. I start with a 5 inch square of rather neutral/blender fabric. Fold in half diagonally. I then write on the name of the recipient of the quilt (made for) my name (made by) and the date the quilt was finished. Sometimes I will include a quilt name or the event or reason the quilt was given but not always. I have a little personal logo that I include. (a kitty face) If there is too much open space, I will trim down the triangle. I sew the triangle into the corner so it is secured in the binding. I choose to whip stitch the top of the triangle. I have a friend who does not. Either way, our work is noted as our creation. We all think our work is not that good or not that important and no one will care but in 100 years someone will be wondering who made the quilt. The answer will be in the corner.
