Pre-Making Labels for Crafts and Quilts

[@deborahcollins5819]

I love this! I have done something similar before. Sometimes I will stitch my lettering onto a 2 1/2 inch piece of fabric, the same size as my binding, then I actually sew the small piece between my binding strips. I will place it strategically before attaching it to my quilt so my label is part of my binding that will show only on the back. I may also include a personalized quote that I love as well. Another thing I have done with my machine lettering is to add a name or quote to the small accent strip on a burrito style pillowcase before sewing the 3 layers together. Thank you, Laura for another great idea for placing labels. I regularly follow your tutorials for great techniques that I don’t see anywhere else. I will add it to this one to my repertoire of ideas to use in future projects. Please keep them coming ❣️

Thanks Laura for such a great idea. I save those ribbons that come quilt bundles and now I have a great way to use them.

I'm with @rebeccaenlow .... I never thought of this reuse/recycle before.... doh! Thankyou, Laura, hugs, Chel 🌸

[@1955rivergirl]

Thank you Laura, this is a wonderful tip!! I always save my ribbons from layer cakes & other precuts! Always enjoy you channel.

[@elainewhite6847]

Good morning I love all your tutorials they make my life so much easier especially the one for the surgical cap. Can you please make a video on how to make a ponytail cap without a pattern

[@lauriepayseur5897]

Thank you I was thinking of ordering labels. I had no idea mine did this. It Does!!

[@GIIG21]

Absolutely brilliant idea

[@lynneschultz316]

Excellent idea! There’s a learning curve when only one label is made at a time therefore I’ve avoided it. This is a wonderful solution. Thanks!

[@pjacksreads536]

Thank you for sharing this information. Very helpful

[@amandastratton8242]

A great idea Laura thank your for sharing your tips x

[@wendyrupp7138]

Great, easy labels!

[@rebeccaenlow7395]

I’m feeling silly for not thinking of this! It’s brilliant, thank you!

[@charlenecastaldo3602]

Thanks for another great idea, Laura! 😊

[@pamcrouse5757]

Just love this video. While my old Bernina doesn’t do letters easily, mass producing these labels once I work out the design would be such a relief! Thank you!

[@dianajones9082]

What a great idea Laura. I wish I had kept the ribbbons from my precuts. 😮

[@kathyboyer4265]

Very cool & Sew Very Easy"!😅 I make lengthwise labels for my quilts & personalize on seam tape. I also tuck mine in the binding. I like that they aren't intrusive to the Quilting. I've never thought to use the grosgrain ribbon. Thank you! Always enjoy.

[@lynnshepard7485]

What a great video, Laura! Thanks especially for the tips for using water soluble stabilizer. 😊 They will definitely up my game.

[@bevcote2357]

Best idea I’ve seen in a while. Thank you! Blessings.

[@kathystewart7152]

I love this. Something I didn't know. Thank you for sharing. She was very helpful .

[@janesprague1]

Brilliant, Laura. Brilliant! (I've wondered what to do with those cute little grosgrain ribbons on jelly rolls.) I'm always at a loss as to what kind of label to make for the quilts that I keep for myself as I generally make some kind of fancier label for quilts I give away. This definitely fits the bill perfectly. Thank you!

[@vallywills9652]

Love this label idea❤

[@lynnleipold2617]

Thanks!

[@SewVeryEasy]

Thank you and thank you for watching

[@catherinebiggs4052]

What is this stabilizer you are using and where can I buy some? Thank you for this video.

[@conchitaquilt3626]

Brilliant as always. I love that idea ❤

[@sewintenseessentialsstudio8476]

Awesome idea - super useful and economical. Thank you Laura.

[@ettakaynickel6148]

Thank you, Laura for such a great idea. You supplied me with so many options for their use. Happy Holidays.

[@deidrapowell8762]

What a great idea ❤😊

[@helenpeddycord2241]

Great tips Laura!💕🧵

[@marshasetering3143]

This is so wonderful. Thank you. I will be trying this soon.

[@lanastewart7310]

Great idea!

[@nancyknight7530]

Thanks love the idea.

[@denisestilling2810]

Can one iron it onto wax paper for the stabilizer? Then peel off the paper after stitching. A great labeling technique . .

[@EsmereldaPea]

Maybe better - freezer paper. I think it would be less likely to gum up the needle.

[@beverlyfarnsworth4684]

I love this! I will definitely do these.

[@jeniselemay2308]

Sew useful! Thank you!

[@loisbailey7393]

[@joharrison7851]

Love this video Laura. I have an embroidery machine. Do I need to hoop it or can I use it like you have done

[@MaryMannion]

Great ideas as usual thank you

[@zeejones4152]

Fantastic

[@magdalenakuhn8781]

Thank for the great tip. ❤❤

[@judyscicchitano7906]

Great idea!!!!

[@gypsygirl731]

Nice if you have that option on the machine. I will buy the stabilizer and give it a try. For monogramming . Well done

[@sandrasaddleman581]

Great idea

[@Recipemazza]

Very nice👌👌👌💝🥰🙏

[@roxywood5278]

Fantastic !! Thank you

[@gincherry]

I need to do this for the other stuff I make like rope bowls or stuffies. I was looking into a way to print my own labels but nothing has worked well

[@nitababcock3977]

Awesome!

[@ncmckinley]

Thanks Laura. Can you share which stabilizer you used?

[@EsmereldaPea]

Good idea! Just a note - grosgrain is pronounced without the S. It's like grow-grain. :)

[@ThisnThat54]

I’m nearly 70 and had to look this up several months ago because... well, I don’t have any jelly rolls so I have to actually buy the grosgrain. I didn’t want to mispronounce it when I asked the clerk where in the store it was located. 😊 Lol

[@tuyettran4790]

Hi Laura Love watching your show ,just wondering if any sewing machine can sew letters? I have brothers sewing machine Thank you have a good day

[@karenneiman856]

Maybe you can find out with your machine's manual or by looking your machine up online?

[@Christie7777]

What stabilizer are you using?

[@sudeshchauhan6575]

Very useful. Thnq laura

[@marcellarodriguez7955]

I’ve never seen this done on a regular sewing machine foot and without a hoop

[@sheilasantiago3715]

Boy I wish the letters on my machine looked that nice and that big. I don't like mine at all

[@jpendot]

Wonderful ideas, Thank you!

[@doreensherk287]
