I just recalled that I blogged about it.... It's worth a try and I think you will be very satisfying....

Wow, wish I could "doodle" like you, lol! Can't draw a stick figure with a ruler. :cry:

So, using the same method (freezer paper ironed onto muslin or light fabric), I tape stabilized fabric onto a light box with computer generated message under and trace it with a Micron pen. That way, the lettering looks nice and is straight, etc. Works like a charm!

If you type in (YouTube making quilt label) you will find,
How to make your own fabric labels for FREE, by The Crafty Gimini's. Its easy,good, and uncomplicated.

If you have an embroidery machine you can whip out 22 labels quickly. I do my own and put lots of info on them plus a graphic of some kind, usually a needle and thread.
