My parents were just here for a visit and I ended up sending four quilts home with them.
One for my dad:
One for my aunt:
And two baby quilts for a charity auction:
But, before I sent them, they all needed labels. I love the look of hand embroidered labels, but that was not going to happen. So I tried stamped labels.
I ordered the fabric ink online and I got the letters and the clear acrylic press at Joann's. It feels good to get quilts labeled with more than scribbling with a Micron pen.
I didn't get a picture of the stack of four folded quilts that my parents had to haul home. We had to loan them a piece of our luggage for the plane ride. But now I have more room to make more for the stack of quilts to stay here.

Gorgeous quilts! Does this mean you need to make more for the 'staying' pile, now?!
Beautiful quilts! The stamps look brilliant!
The stamps are great. I am going to look into that!
I love the one your dad took. And your little labels! I have to say it feels special to give someone a quilt, even though sometimes it's really hard.
Love the stamps; I should try that!
