I have made some lovely labels using those purchased panels and my embroidery machine. I have several and can use thread to match the colors of the quilt.
You have to shop carefully, though, since many of those panels don't have very big labels. Sometimes, you want to include alot of information.
I have just started using my computer to make labels. My hand writing is not very neat. For the memory quilts, I took a photo of some applique flowers that were on clothes and couldn't fit into the quilt. Then downloaded it to my EQ6 and used the text to make a label. I'll put a photo of it on my profile. I also framed the label with material from a pillow the mom had. Cheryl
After many years of quilting, I still stall on the label issue. Anyone have ideas? Do you have a signature label - that is, a style you always use? Do you print it out, fancy it up, or just write on the quilt? I would welcome any cool ideas. Thanks.
