Quilts From The Edge : The Label

The finishing touch for any quilt is to have a label affixed to the back containing pertinent information about the quilt. The old "who, what, when and where" formula from news reporting is a good one to keep in mind. Some folks embroider a label, some use fine tip permanent markers to hand write the information. My favourite way is to make the label on the computer and include a photo of the finished quilt there as well. I print it on a purchased fabric photo sheet, or on cotton I treat myself using Bubble Jet Set. This label is a bit lengthier than most as I included the Artist's Statement.
