The P/L labels are not just given out to anyone. The blankets are counted so they know how many have gone out to the groups / families in need. Once you've been a "blanketeer" for a while, the coordinator might let you make your quilts and label them at home. It just depends on the local group.

They have groups that get together and process the quilts (look for things that might not have gotten finished, pet hairs, etc.). Once the quilt is checked, the group puts the labels on. It's a very fun group to hang out with for a couple of hours each month. I moved and miss my group so much. My new location doesn't have any groups nearby.
