Hand is a four letter word.
I completed this quilt including the label with out hand stitching anything!!!
I hate hand stitching!!
I was going to machine sew the label into the corner of the quilt on 2 sides and then i would only have to hand stitch it down across the angle but as I was pinning it on I had a great idea. I just faced the back of the label with fabric so when it fits in the corner it makes a small finished pocket.
No hand stitching!!!
I think this is how I will attach labels from now on. I have been having good luck printing on fabric with my ink jet printer. I have been able to just tape the fabric on the paper and run it through. I had read that all you have to do is iron it and it heat sets it but today I soaked the label in white vinegar for 5 minutes rinsed it and then ironed it dry.
Lots of help from my grand cat "Draco"
