Help needed . What stitch to sew label to back of quilt ?
I have my label made and borders around to frame it. Now what ? How do I sew it to the back nice and neat? Hand sewing is not my thing. Thanks for help I know is coming .

I agree, sew it on the backing by machine before you put the backing on the quilt. It will possibly get quilted over so you might need to think about that. But if the quilting is already done I'm not sure there is another choice but to hand stitch it.

I usually machine embroider the information on the quilt backing before making the sandwich. Then the quilting goes overtop all the embroidered information. No label for a thief to remove.
On the rare instance I do attach some sort of label, I turn the edges under and hand stitch it like an applique, with invisible stitches all around, again, preferable before the quilting.
