I always embroder my name and date on the back of my quilts. It stays forever. I made a beautiful on for my sisterback in 1987, and she still has it, and I was so happy that the writing on the back was still there. It will out last the quilt I think. Have a Happy Day. Gerry
Thanks Anne!
This is such a great idea for Christmas. After all, who doesn’t love their signature displayed as a custom label on their clothes or luggage? So cute. Thanks!
