Another option is to look for MGI Photosuite, if that's still being made. It was an inexpensive printing program that had the best interface I've seen for letting you size and print things exactly where you want them on a page.
If a quilt is going to get a lot of washing, such as a baby quilt, I think it would be best to get an embroidered label. Permanent inks aren't quite as permanent as we'd like, in my experience.

I remember some complaints about the washability of spoonflower fabrics. One person did some tests and took pictures showing how badly it faded if washed in warm water. If it wasn't for that I would have bought some there too. Hopefully that has improved.

I used to make my own using pre-treated fabric - several different brands and even fabric treated with Bubble Jet set. However, over time, with repeated washing the labels have faded until they are illegible. However, the label where I hand printed using Pigma micron pens is still legible.
