Tutorial: DIY twill tape labels for clothes you sewWhy should you put labels in the clothes you sew?  For the same reason that manufacturers put them in the clothes they sell.  They tell who made the garment, or what size it is, or what kind of fabric it’s made from.  An added bonus is that you can use the label to tell which side is front when you’re putting it on.  Stephanie from Swoodson Says shows how she makes twill tape labels for the clothes she makes.  They’re simple to make and are a nice finish to any garment you sew.
