Sure. I took out my name and inserted "name goes here". If you look in EQ7 under help (type in label as the search word) you get concise directions on how to make labels.

Thanks so very much, dunster!! :thumbup: I'll do just that later today. Looking so forward to being able to do this in EQ7. :D

Your label is absolutely wonderful!! Do you use purchased fabric sheets or make your own? The clarity of your daughter's pic is wonderful! Have you had any problems with ink fading over time? Do you use a particular printer or certain printer ink? Are you just heat setting your label with your iron after it's made? Hope I'm not asking too many questions, but with something as important as a quilt, I'd like to do the best job with the label that I can. Thanks again for all your helpful information! :thumbup:

I am by no means an expert on printing to fabric. I don't know how well it holds up, because I haven't been doing it that long. I bought the Printed Treasures fabric sheets at JoAnn's and followed the directions. I have an older HP printer. I have been told that there are some printers that give better results than others, but I don't know which ones.

Very nice label. Thanks for all the info.

Thanks, dunster. I've only made a few myself over the years and haven't heard from the recipients how they're holding up. I have an old HP printer, too and an inexpensive Canon one, too. I actually liked the label I printed off the Canon better this time. Ya never know. So many variables.

I've been using EQ Printables because I heard they were the best a couple of years ago, but now I'm hearing a lot of good about the Printed Treasures ones.
