    I don't label stuff that's meant for 'daily use' like mug rugs and place mats. I treat those things as strictly functional.

    I do label nice table runners and small wall hangings because they're decorative and intentionally made to be 'art'.

    I do a lot of Project Linus quilts, and was told not to label them with name, date, etc. So instead I had tiny red and white labels made from a company on E-Bay that simple says " You are loved" and use these. Seems to say it all.

    The only quilts I put a label on is for the wedding quilts I make for family members or baby quilts. I am ashamed to say I certainly don't put labels on any quilts that I make for myself.

    I use a pigma pen to label things I take to my mom at assisted living. I just write my name and date on it.

    I think we should all label our quilts just for history's sake.

    I put my name, location and year on the binding with the programmed letters from my sewing machine. I do this on gifts that I think the receiver will feel are more special because they have the label on them. It could be done with permanent marker as well.
