They don't have to be fancy! Love the corner triangle - simple and gets the job done. I make sheets of heavily lined freezer paper and lay my label fabric (I almost always use muslin) over it. I can see the lines thru the fabric so it's easy to write straight. I hear occasional anecdotes about lines from fabric pens reappearing after several years, so I don't use them for gifted quilts. I'm testing with a personal quilt.BJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17270771929445396338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554378824181841688.post-71482060674535977452015-04-14T04:35:11.039-07:002015-04-14T04:35:11.039-07:00thank you for this tip!!!thank you for this tip!!!Cocopatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07985551316022705766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554378824181841688.post-8053826900471849612015-04-14T04:17:50.508-07:002015-04-14T04:17:50.508-07:00Sorry... too many typos in my comment, so deleted ...Sorry... too many typos in my comment, so deleted and here we go again... <br />I do like the idea of tucking the label into the corner like that.

I have had her sign the muslin and will fill in the details as we figure them out from her quilt scrapbook. Trying to get my siblings to do the same, but I don't know that they consider it a priority. I've given them the muslin squares with freezer paper attached, along with a sheet of simple instructions. We'll see if it happens. I may have to do them all.Janet O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05083607398709252597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554378824181841688.post-66867981371676741142015-04-13T10:42:04.689-07:002015-04-13T10:42:04.689-07:00This is so funny!

I just sat down to make the label for my Faithful quilt and opened your blog to find out the date your quilt-along was started, and your blog is about making labels! I'm taking it to my guild meeting this afternoon and one of the members always wants to see the label to make sure we put one on, so I wanted it to have the label on it so I would be scolded. Hee Hee! I'm going to try to get my other quilts caught up on their labels real soon.

It's not considered finished until the label is applied. I just came home from a quilting retreat where we all made the same quilt in different fabrics with the same background. The results were varied and fun! I collected bits from my buddies' trash receptacles and made them labels for when their tops are quilted. No excuse for no labels on these quilts! <br /><br />When I make my labels, I use the frixion pens for lines too. However, I use blue painter's tape instead of freezer paper if I am just writing the label or using a preprinted label. It was a tip I picked up in a class from Pat Speth. It provides a studier base than the freezer paper, and doesn't slip. I use freezer paper if I am tracing a design.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10544757598004565474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554378824181841688.post-68862507184372645062015-04-13T08:23:36.132-07:002015-04-13T08:23:36.132-07:00I'm in your camp when it comes to labeling qui...I'm in your camp when it comes to labeling quilts.
