Yes I try my best to label my quilts. I have my name, date, where I made it who it is for if that is the case and some sort of name or whose pattern it is too. That's about it. Thank you for the chance to win. NYC Sounds like a fun time.

I label my quilts with my name and date. If it's a gift, I also include the recipients name. Sometimes a message, like "Happy Birthday". Or "With Love". Maybe a little flower doodle. The years go by fast and my memory doesn't last☺️ So it's nice to have the label as a record. Sure would love to see and hear Kaffe Fassett keynote address. Thanks for the chance to win the swag!

I try to label every quilt but have gotten behind in labeling the latest ones. I usually put my name, city, state, year, and possibly the quilt's name. If it's for a certain person I'll include that too.

I label some of my quilts with the name of the pattern, designer, and also the person I'm giving it to. I sign my initials and the date.

Yes I label most of my quilts especially the ones that go to others. I usually put the name of the recipient, the date, my name, washing instructions. I have a rubber stamp that I always use as part of the label that says "One who sleeps under a quilt is comforted with love." I think that says it all.

Most of the quilts for myself I at least will initial and date the back (right on the backing), sometimes I make a little tab with my name and date. If a gift I will do a label of some sort. Thanks Carrie and Moda for the blog and a chance to win!! Love coneflowers and scrappy!

yes I label my quilts, - name of quilt, the year made, washing instructions, who made it, if it is for special person or occasion that is put on it also

Yes, I label my quilts. I think it is very important. I have some from my heirs that do not have labels and I so wish they did because I would know more about them. I include a little message for the receiver, the name of the quilt and the date it was made and the occasion it was given for. It is a must!

I write my name and the year I made the quilt with a Micron pen, until I decide who I am giving the quilt to. Then I put a label on top of that information, which includes who the quilt is for, the reason they are getting the quilt, the date, and in some cases a short message to the person.

I label some of my quilts...mainly quilts that are a gift. On the label I include the date, who it was made for, the occasion, and my name.

I know I should, but I haven't labeled my quilts.

Yes, I label my quilts. My Sweet Man says I write epistles! LOL In my handwriting I use the Pentel fabric gel pen in black to write my full name, city, state and dated finished. Usually the designers name of the pieced pattern, what number quilt completed on my long arm, fabric, thread and batting used. I think I do all this documentation because out of all the antique quilts I've collected, only one has initials and a date October 1, 1895. I wish I knew more. So, to compensate I over label for future generations of quilt historians and collectors. Allison C Bayer, Plano, Texas USA

I do! I have 2.5 inch wooden buttons embossed with my name. Sew cute. Then I sign and date the quilt by the button. Cute. Easy. Quick!

I label some... esp the ones I give as gifts. They usually have my name, year, and why I gave it to them:)

I do label my quilts and I like to have fun with them; for example, I made my nephew a quilt with dog blocks and then made a white dog block for my label. On my labels I include the name and usually my relationship with that person, date completed, and the pattern used. And sometimes a funny story about how long it took me to complete it.

I've been trying to get better about labeling them. I'm hoping to figure out how to make quilt labels on my embroidery machine *fingers crossed*. I include my name, the date and any information I might want to remember - the swap name, the occasion (for my mom on her birthday), who the quilt was made for, etc. Thanks for a chance to win!

I do try to write my name, year, location, recipient, recipient location, and reason for quilt

I label gift quilts with name, date, information Many that I keep I don't. Will need to change that

Who the quilt is made for - The reason the quilt was made ie Wedding or Birthday - the date - MADE WITH LOVE - and my name.

I do my best to label every quilt with at least my name, but usually I also include the name of the quilt, and year it was made, too.

I never label quilts made for myself. For quilts made for others, I prefer to send a card with the quilt explaining the when and why. I find labels obtrusive and prefer not to use them.

Yes, I always label my quilts, including the name of the quilt, year made, my name, and my city/state. If it's a gift, there will be some personalization for the recipient, too. I draft my labels in Word and print them on treated fabric sheets. On donation quilts, I write my initials, year, and city/state unobtrusively in Sharpie on a corner of the back.

I used to embroider "made by ____ for___ " and the year. That was when I made a quilt every couple if years. Now I just sew in a small woven label on my big quilts. With two new grand babies, I've been making a lot of small quilts, so I've been using the " P.S. I love you " tags ( available from Moda). I intend for my quilts to be used up, so I don't fret too much about documenting.

Yes, I label my quilts with name, date, my location and who the quilt is for.

Yes, I do label my quilts. It includes, depending on the quilt and recipient, a variety of information. Basics are what I decide to "name" my quilt, my name, the date completed and to whom I am giving the quilt (if I am). I might also write a sentiment if it is for a wedding, birth or a memory quilt of someone who has passed. My labels can be small or large, depending on what I want to include in them. Thanks for a chance to win but even more so the opportunity to see what others put on their labels!

I always label my quilts with my name and date. If it is for someone else and there is a special occasion involved, I include that information also. I feel it is important to document this information as I expect my work to be around long after I'm gone! Thank you for the opportunity to win!

I put my name name of pattern month and year and the name of person I am giving it to. And if there is a story about making it or the reason I am giving it for my grands I usually say something about it being a hug for them.

I don't label my quilts because I make small things like wallhangings, table squares, mug rugs, etc. If I ever make a full size quilt, I am sure that I will label it so my children and granddaughter will know that I made it.

I am hit or miss on labeling quilts. If it's a gift I get it done and include my name and year. If they are living with me, not so much! Thanks for the fun give away!

I don't usually label my quilts. I do label quilts for my grandchildren with their name, my name and the date. I like the idea of "hiding" your initials and date during the quilting process. Thank you for the chance to win.
