    I finally finished a quilt for the battered women's shelter. Does anyone have an idea as to what i could put on the label?

    I also finished a table runner that went to my sister-in-law as a birthday gift.

    Gotta say I love the table runner .. very creative use of charms!

    And great job on the quilt!

    As for your label question, I don't know how detailed you want to get. Perhaps your name, city/state, date presented to the shelter and then something like "To comfort and give you warmth and strength as you move forward"?

    Just a thought....

    Great job on both of them!

    As for the label, how about 'never stop believing'.
