Each one I make has a small spiral quilted into the bottom right hand corner. DH came up with the symbol b/c he said that oftentimes when our lives are spiraling out of control, it's nice to just curl up under a quilt to pray/think/cry. I didn't know if it was a common thing to do or not.

Name of quilt, whom made for if applicable, date, my name and city and state. If it's from a pattern I try to incorporate that into the label, giving designer and periodical due credit.

Every one of my quilts, and every one of my fountains and bird baths has a ladybug hidden somewhere in plain sight. Ladybug Artistry is the name of my small, but growing little artistic business, Seems to be turning more toward the quilt side lately. I also include a label
