    Saw this tutorial for creating a quilt label with your computer printer without special paper (just freezer paper, 8 1/2 X 11 regular computer paper, some stick glue and your fabric) on youtube and thought I would share it. I haven't tried it yet but will need to soon has I have started a quilt for my grandson. Hope my link works!

    I tried that Saturday without the freezer paper - just glued the muslin to printer paper. It didn't work and caused a big jam. It did print a label, but jammed before it spit it out. My printer is the roll feed that needs the 'good' side face down. I think her direct feed would be better. I'll have to try again. I also have a second printer I need to hook up. Maybe it feeds through flat.

    Thank you for the instructions.

    Thanks. This sounds like an improvement over the freezer paper ironed onto fabric method which always jammed in my printer.

    Fantastic! Thank you so much. Tutorial is very good. I never would have found this on my own so a double thanks for pointing me to it.

    Are you related to Crafty Bear? She finds sites like this all the time. Anyway, many thanks for sharing.
