    What computer programs or web sites do use to make labels for completed quilts? Do you use self made freezer paper backed fabric or the purchased paper backed fabric?

    I use freezer paper backed fabric. I use different fonts on my computer and print out what I want on the label - who made the quilt, who it is for, occasion, date, etc. Just make sure your printer ribbon has permanent ink so the info on label won't wash off. This way I can coordinate my label with the quilt.

    How do you know if it's permanent ink?

    they had some awsome permanet paints for these at the ohio quilt show.
    She used a water brush to bring out the pigment.
    She only had large sizes left as she had sold the smaller ones the day before.
    I think she said theywere from england.
    I haven`t googled yet but the name is
