When you have someone else quilt your quilt, do you add their name when you sign your quilt?
|
You can, that is up to you.

I teach a beginning quilters class and occassionally I will quilt a top for them. They usually include my name but I have asked them not to as I feel the recipient doesn't know me and it detracts from them being the giver of the gift. However that said I quilt tops for a friend that is a full time quilt instructor at several of the local shops and she always insists on adding quilted by Victoria to her labels. So I think maybe it's just preference.

I've started to with the last couple of quilts my Aunt has done for me. I usually say something like "designed and piece by qbquilts, quilted by XXXXXX"
|
I would.
:) |
i would too.
many people put labels on the quilts to retain the maker information on the quilt and that includes all people who worked on the quilt. |
When I create my label for my wallhangings etc I say, " Created,quilted and pieced by, Sheriann.... so far I have done my own quilting as they have all been something I am able to do.
My question is: if you are creating something for a grandchild does anyone use their name instead of or in addition to: Nana, grandma, gram, GG... etc etc |

its always nice to give credit where credit is due-
it is also nice to include the name of the pattern/designer- if you used a commercial pattern to make you quilt. the one i paid someone else to quilt had---designed and pieced by--- quilted by--- patterns from--- date, city, state and of course the name of the quilt and the occassion of the gift. |
Yes pls put names of everybody who worked on the quilt. Otherwise you're (by omission) taking credit for somebody else's work.
