MadQuilter - My Granty would LOVE that but I don't think those around her would approve!

LOL!
I'll have to tell her that suggestion in person ...
but put something more 'respectable' onthe actual label!

thank you for brightening my morning!

here is what my Aunt had me put on her label...
Made for____________ who shall return to the maker (me) upon her passing. Made in (the year).

SHe has it in her will...of course if my cousins get there before I do...sigh..but I am her executor...

Thank you so much ann31039 and the other two ladies who sen tme a PM - I am quite overcome about how helpful and generous the ladies on this board are ...

I'm now thinking of ...
A white cloth label with a red embrodiered border of some kind and red 'handwriting' embrodiery ...

My first quilt rightfully goes to
My Granty, Ethel Day, who taught me so much.
Sending my hugs to you, and
Collecting your hugs for
When it returns to me.

I don't know how huge a label that would have to be, or even whether it is going to be possible/practical ... but that is more or less what I want to say.
