Labels Revisited

Was it just last month (or the month before?) that we discussed labels?  Click Here


The days are flying by, but in some ways it feels like 2020 has been around FOREVER, am I right?

After I wrote the September post on labels, my good friend and quilting buddy, Dawn White wrote this post on labels.

Dawn's method  WORKS!  I must say I'm very pleased with the final result.   Some modification was required as I had two labels to print and I wanted different backgrounds.  Using a piece of cellophane tape to join the two pieces worked like a charm.  There was some concern that cellophane tape would gum up the printer....but, it did not.


This quilt is headed off to a Northern destination where they really do have winter weather.

 
Destination, off to a state where they never get winter weather, per se,
but my young, great-grand niece can still cuddle up.


There are a lot of benefits to this method:  The label fabric can match or compliment the quilt fabric.
No special printer label fabric is needed, so we're saving money.
It's attractive.  It looks festive.  Win, Win, Win.

A great method for all future quilt labels.
Thank you, Dawn White.

  1. Thanks for the shout out, Char -- your labels look great! So glad to know your experiment running a label with two fabrics through the printer worked out. I might give that a try myself!
