Labels for quilts

One lesson I don’t want to learn: to add labels to my quilts. I have never paid attention to this detail. Probably because the permanent markers I have are not so permanent…I think that after washing the writing will fade anyway.

But my friend Mihaela helped me to become a serious quilter. A few weeks ago I received from her a beautiful box and inside of it I was so surprised and excited to find a few embroidered labels. Exactly what I need!
She made them even similar with my logo, in my favorite colors.
Did I say surprised? Excited? Well, it was more than that, but I don’t know how to say it in English! Doing happy dance? Something like that…

For those who have machine capable to do embroidery I think these labels are fantastic.
Thank you, Mihaela! I am grateful for all the work you put in them.

We have a new kitty- Tina!

Which means I have now two assistants to test my fabrics and my work!

  1. Those labels are beautiful. Did you use printed, then iron on labels? Those seem to me quite resistant.

  6. I use Jetset, which is a solution that I treat fabric with and then iron it onto freezer paper and it goes through the printer and design labels on my computer and print them on the fabric, then iron it and it is permanent. But those labels look fabulous!!!!
    Cheers
