Although I love all the quilty sayings, I have to handmake my labels with an
archival pen. I am lucky to get the to - from - and date on it. Am I the
only one?

I generally don't worry about labeling quilts, unless there is
something special about the quilt itself. No one in my family has
ever bothered to label a quilt in the past--just make one and use it
until it is shredded then make a new one. The most I plan to do for
an everyday use quilt is sign it and give it a year for a date. I
might use a micron pen or I might do it in embroidery, but it will be
directly on the quilt rather than a separate label. I plan to use the
quilts I make, and I don't want to feel a label sewn to the back of
the quilt while I'm using it.

Howdy!
Nope, you're not the only one.
Every quilt doesn't need a story attached on a label.
The basic facts, who made it, where & when, is usually plenty.
I'm still here so any questions about my quilts can be asked and answered.
The rest of the story -- make it up; fiction is often more fun. ;-D
Cheers!

It's a twin size Weaver Fever. I had to make one after seeing Ann's.
Pictures will be taken this weekend.
