    Default Fabric envelope to use for labels

    I found this video on how to make a basic fabric envelope. I plan on making them to put on my G-grandmother’s quilts I have. Then inside the envelope I will write up what history I know about them. I had to turn up the volume in order to hear it.

    You lifelong sewists might find it too basic, but it was just what I needed!

    Be sure that if you write with pen/ink on paper that it is archival quality acid free. OR you could embroider or print on cloth that has fusible interfacing on the back then fold and make it look like a letter.
