Guild Nametag
#2
Our guild gives us a piece of fabric (the type that goes through the printer) with the guild logo and your name that is the center of out name tag.
1. I just took my scraps from a quilt that I was making, sewed them together like a crazy quilt,
2. Cut strips from that as borders and sew them to the center
3. Put a "backing " on it and pinned a strap in place
4. added a "binding" ans VOILA! done
One think I wished I had done that several of the ladies had was add a small pocket on the back.
Have fun! Hope that you enjoy it.

I made a teapot (paper-pieced) because I just love my tea! I embroidered my name on it and get many compliments. I would suggest for you to try to make a fun nametag which represents you and what you like.

I've seen all types of name tags from really fancy to fairly simple. A lot of ladies make pin on name tags instead of the ones that hang around your neck. Most of the simple ones are just a square with a white fabric in the center, quilted and bound and pinned on.

I just joined a guild, and was given a beautiful quilted name tag that had a yellow bow in one corner, a small button flower and a little bee applique in the bottom corner. The background was a light blue check and had a white rectangle stitched on the front to write my name on it.
