Love the label. My neighbor asked me to come over to look at the quilt her niece sent her to help her find the label. Alma is 90% blind due to diabetes. When she found she was going blind she studied Braille. God Bless her niece! She labeled the quilt in Braille with French Knots so it could be read. She had a friend help her with the French Knots who also knows Braille. Alma's niece also stitched in German the names of all those who helped work on the quilt. She hand embroidered along the quilt lines echoing the information. It's almost invisible because the thread is only about 2 shades lighter than the material. I thought that was very clever. So if you run across a quilt anytime that feels really nubby, it just might be labeled in Braille!

Great idea. Nice quilt.
|
I love creative labels, but it does take planning.
|
I love this idea. I have not been good about labeling my quilts. This method would encourage getting it done. Thanks for sharing.

Darling label. I wondered about adding before quilting but I was afraid (I was going to use much closer quilting) that you would not be able to read it.
|
Great idea!!! I still forget to add labels and I love to see everyone elses.
