I use a $1 gift bag from the dollar store.

When we gifted quilts to the nieces and nephews for Christmas, we made matching pillowcases and tucked the quilt (top) into the case. They got to keep the pillow and pillowcase while we finish the quilts. I think they all liked it.

The local quilt guild's raffle quilt this year comes in a quilted bag with matching blocks. It is really stunning. They had a few extra blocks so they made them into the bag. That might be kind of a fun way of presenting your quilts. They can take the bag everywhere they go and remember you and your beautiful quilts.

I have a friend who wraps hers like you do but with the label up.

I either make a pillowcase or two for Queen size or a big stuff sack which is what I call those bags with the round bottom and draw string closure. I use my biggest pot lid (think preserving kettle) to trace a circle for the bottom and make the sides (diameter of circle X 3.14) for the length of the fabric needed. Most of my stuff sacks are then big enough for the quilt and a pillow. You then have your own nap time in a sack all packed ready to go. My kids like them especially for sleepovers.

That is a great idea to make a coordinating pillow case to package that. Anyway, the quilts as so beautiful, a bow is such a pretty addition. Can't find any paper that is any prettier than the quilts.
