I quilt my initials into the quilt whenever I remember to do it.

Never and I don't even like to put a label on them, I think they should remember who gave it to them. For a dear Sister Friend I did make a great label using cross stitch fabric and letters. She bought me some smaller ones to sew on, I don't put them on everyone.

I sign, I can't deal with a label too, after all that sewing. I did do labels for some but I sign my artwork so I got the idea of why not?

i try to sign all of mine.i take pictures this last 15 yrs or so.and keep a journal of sorts.'i also put a mistake in each one.sometimes a block inside out-it's never noticable.sometimes a block out of place.when i tell people-and i dont tell everyone-that there's a mistake in their quilt-they spend hours searching for it!!:)
the idea came to me because the quilt is handmade and nothing should be perfect-that's god's job!:)

I wish some of these responses would have posted photos of how they sign or the labels they make. I need visual ideas.
