    Thanks so much everyone for all the great comments. It feels so nice to have other people see and appreciate the work I put into my quilts. That is why I make a special effort to notice the work of others. I know everyone likes to feel the warmth of loving comments.

    Dear Bostpn 1954, I just LOVE your "history label." I wish that I had done that from the beginning. Actually I did do it on the first one, but never since. Think I'll start with the next one.

    Dear GailG,

    When I first started quilting, I did not bother putting on labels. Then I remembered something my mother had told me when I was doing cross stitch. She said it will be worth more in years to come if you put on the back who made it and when. Well, I started adding labels to the quilts that I still had access to. The ones I had kept or given to hubby or sister.

    There are a few that "got away" unlabeled, but a substantial number of them are "documented". Also, in my computer I have a list of information about the names and what number I gave them, the size AND I have photographed EVERY quilt I have ever made.

    I have been told that I am very organized. :D

    Anne

    Yes, Boston, you really ARE organized. I do put my name and date on quilts I make. Sometimes I write the occasion (graduation, etc). But your journalling is outstanding.
