I just finished this quilt for a baby boy. My daughter in law asked me to make it so she could give it as a baby shower gift.
I also made a matching gift bag but I am having trouble getting that picture loaded.
Do you think I should sign it??

The pics are all there just fine. What a great gift set! You did a wonderful job.

ontheriver 03-19-2011 05:46 AM

yes, always label your quilts. Maybe put who it is for, who is is from, and then your name as quilter and the date.

Minnesewta-sam 03-19-2011 05:46 AM

Absolutely sign it and date it too. Lovely set.

I forgot to mention where I got the pattern.
I got it from "Keepsake Baby Quilts from scraps"
Designed by/Julie Higgins

Is it precious. And what a great idea for a bag to match.

redquilter 03-19-2011 05:48 AM

That is just adorable. Love the idea of the gift bag. What a wonderful gift. By all means sign it perhaps with the date, who it's for, who it's from and then your name as quilter.

You did such a nice job. This is definately one of the nicest baby quilts I've seen. Cute train fabric.

Ann912 03-19-2011 08:27 AM

Yes, you should put a label on it. It is just great!!

Snorky Lvs2Quilt 03-19-2011 08:41 AM

Yes, do sign and date it. I wouldn't make it too obnoxiously noticeable, but your beautiful work needs to be acknowledged. What a beautiful job you did. Love the bag for it too.

What a wonderful job!

Very very pretty quilt.

greensleeves 03-19-2011 09:18 AM

Very nice quilt, you should label it. Who it is for(baby), from(dil)and who made it(you) and the date or babies birthdate. Doesn't have to be a big label-I like them small.

Tartan 03-19-2011 11:54 AM

I usually label all my quilts, even gifts if I am the one giving them. I might make up a label but not attach it and leave it to my daughter-in-law's discretion to label or not. Very nice job!

Could you please tell us - is Keepsake Baby Quilts from scraps the name of a book?

waladopa 03-20-2011 04:04 AM

Yes, that is the name of the book.

waladopa 03-20-2011 04:05 AM

I think I bought the book at Hancocks or maybe Hobby Lobby

Yooper32 03-20-2011 05:37 AM

Lucky daughter. All she has to do is pick up the bag, and go.

kimscruzer 03-20-2011 05:40 AM

It is such a nice quilt, you should definitely take credit and sign it! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Ziva 03-20-2011 05:26 PM

Beautiful quilt! I love this blue and I am not too fond of blue!

pdunn56 03-20-2011 05:31 PM

this thread made me have to just say this...I am a very giving person, but I too have been asked at times to "make" a gift for someone else to give away.... Really..if I'm making it, with my time and materials, how is it a gift from someone who had nothing to do with it? ? you should absolutely sign it, it's really a gift from YOU to the giver!
and the quilt is absolutely adorable by the way. ;-)

Beautiful !!;-)
