    I just never thought about someone taking my label off a quilt.
    I am going to investigate signing them, I love to find quilts that have their history attached. I think it makes them more interesting.

    I include the quilt name, who it was made for, and the date as a minimum of information.
    I found a web site that has great art work to be used for scrap booking but I use it for binder cover inserts and quilt labels. If I can't get it into this post I'll send it in the next.

    Same here. I can personalize them that way.
