That is what I did for all of my grands.

What a great idea! I love it!!

I machine embroider my labels, adding the name of the quilt, who the quilt is for, my name and the date. If it is a crib or lap quilt for a child I usually embroider one of the embroideries done on the front of the quilt. Then I machine stitch the label to the backing before the quilt is quilted.

I've done this and when the quilt is washed, the ink is washed out. Any suggestions?

Normabeth, I am so glad you asked about quilt labels. I have learned so much today.

When I label I usually do a machine embroidery and name and date, etc. on muslin or sturdy piece of fabric and attached with stitch witchery.

I have hand embroidered a label, but most of the time I like to use a pigma pen-just easier and faster.

I have a quilt label CD on my computer.
Its so handy and has tons of options to
choose from. Betty Lee

I was taught/told to sew the label into a corner and cover 2 sides with the binding and hand sew the other 2 sides under. This makes it harder for someone to remove the label in case of theft.
