I used to be able to use a permanent calligraphy pen for labels when I was younger but now I rely on the printer and enjoy using an italic font. For picnic/utility quilts just writing on the backing worked well, also. I’m the current custodian of a circa 1858 indigo and white Oak Leaf Reel and my first quilting task of 2023 is to get my kid (50!) to set up my inkjet printer so I can write a detailed label of what we know of our 19 year old ancestress who made this lovely piece as part of the quilts she brought to her marriage in New York State. As always, Laura, you’ve shared another useful and beautifully done video. Thank you.

I have watched quite a few of your videos, and I just want to say that you are very knowledgeable regarding sewing - anything and sewing equipment - old and new. Not only that, but you are a terrific teacher! Thank you for all of the hours you put in to your "lessons". I have learned a lot from you and expect to learn a lot more as I watch more of your videos - and I have been sewing for years! Thank you again!

Great ideas. I have used a photo of the couple (sometimes with me in the pic) and printed on muslin, and use that as a label. Writing on the white spaces.... I usually print it as a B&W pic.... makes a nice addition to the quilt.

Usually left in the "natural" color, a very light beige, & less tightly woven a quilting cotton fabric is. Clothing sewers often use a muslin made "Pattern" if the outfit, for trying on the person, first. [Instead of a paper pattern.]is Quiltmakers have often use muslin as a backing fabric; mostly in the past. 1st Resource: Muslin is a cotton fabric of plain weave. It is made in a wide range of weights from delicate sheers to coarse sheeting. It gets its name from the city of Mosul, in Iraq, where it was first manufactured. In the 17th and 18th centuries Dacca in Bengal was regarded as producing the finest muslins. Wikipedia 2nd Resource: What is muslin fabric used for? Muslin is a versatile, multi-purpose cloth used in dressmaking, furniture polishing, theatre sets and even medicine. It is a healthy, organic fabric and can be put to good use around the home without spreading chemical residue and, most importantly is reusable and stops the cycle of waste.Apr 18, 2018 www.biome.com.au › blog

I love your idea of putting a triangle on the corner to put a pole through to hang it on your wall. I have been looking for an idea to make a heavyish curtain to hang on my bedroom windows in the winter. I have decided to use your idea and make a lovely quilt to hang over my windows in winter to save heating costs. You are going to help me reduce my electricity bill. Thank you so much.

Very comprehensive. The only other method I can think of is the Transfer Artist Paper (TAP), on which you print, in reverse, and then iron onto any fabric. I have printed my name, very small, many times onto one sheet, and then I can cut them out as needed and iron onto quilt back, front or binding. I really enjoyed your presentation. You are a great speaker and instructor.

I had never thought to label. Recently I came across some old labels that I had purchased meant to be used on the inside of clothes that I had made my daughter. I was thinking that a quilt could and should have a label sewn in. While watching another quilt video, I got a glimpse of this video and heading off to the right and was inspired to watch your video. I love all the label ideas. A hand made or computer generated personally inspired label is definetly the direction I wish to go. Thank you for sharing your beautiful quilts and labels.

Thank you for another great video full of ideas. I do enjoy your videos they are always so welcoming. You asked for our label ideas I have a couple to share, like you said printing your own labels is a good way to make personal labels and putting them in the printer on freezer paper which has been cut to size is another way to print with out spray you just iron it on the paper and it goes in well. Another way I recently seen is a video label, you buy a pack of labels which have a QR code which you scan with your phone, video your message. The receiver of the quilt scans the code and sees your video message. It is called StoryPatches and they feature unique QR codes on each label. I like your corner idea and quilting the message in the quilt I thinks that is lovely idea.Thank you Laura for sharing.

Hello Laura, I found this label making video very interesting. and I love all the different ways you show. to apply a label, but I'm wondering when you say to hit the label. with a hot iron to set the ink? Does the label need to be covered with a pressing cloth. before the ironing? Or do I just hit the label with a hot iron. and the ink will not transfer to the iron?

I have an embroidery machine but most of the time I opt not to use it for my labels. I like the personal touch. I write with a frixion pen what I want to say, it works better with cursive writing. Next I free motion quilt over what I have written. I make sure I secure a little on the beginning and end of each word. Its sill my writing , its still done by machine, but it is more personal :)

I was just told by Bernina that they no longer support the Art Design software and that the Artlink software for my embroidery module DOES NOT have lettering. Seems pretty stupid. Guess I'll have to come up with a plan B that works for me without having to spend a lot of money.

Spray basting didn't agree with my breathing so I experimented. Cut your fabric about five inches wide after starching it well. Lay it carefully on the same size piece of paper for support, no glue, adjust the paper tray to the correct size, and print. A wider piece of fabric tends to jam. Hope this is useful. It is very cheap! Thanks for all these tips, so helpful.

Hi Julie. I don't have a problem with puckering on labels. I spray with Best Press spray and iron it 5 times on the wrong side of the fabric. This makes the fabric very firm. Then I use a medium weight tearaway as the stabiliser. Once embroidered, you can also respray on the wrong side with Best Press and iron again.

Inkjet printing is permanent but you need to let the cloth dry a bit after it’s printed and you must iron with a hot dry iron to set the ink.
@melindaostergren8115
@melindaostergren8115 Жыл бұрын
Laser printing is not permanent AND it makes a big mess if the cloth gets wet. I’m one of others who knows this for a sad fact‼️ Sharpies bleed if they’re not heat set, and I’ve found they can fade over time. Pigmy Micron pens come in varied nib formats. Stabilize the fabric (there must be no starch or other sizing on the side you write on). After you finish your label. Press well with a hot dry iron. I’ve used both inkjet and Pigma inks and 20+ years later they’re still clear and easy to read.

Hi Laura, Thank you for the wonderful tutorial. I don't see a link to "how to make corner pocket-like labels" where would I find that?

I want to sew a monogram and date on a wall hanging that has a self binding. I figured out how to type in the letters and numbers but don’t know how to start the sewing of the letters. I’ve done this before but have forgotten what I did.

Your video mentioned a person could use an ink pen to write on a quilt label. I was in a library group 40 years ago that made a quilt to auction off and each person wrote our name on a block. Many years later we heard from the person who had won the quilt the fabric had deteriorated where we had written our names on the blocks to the point the names were no longer visible.

At 12:30 a blind stitch looks much better than the small whip-stitch. I use a thread color that matches the label and quilt back.

+SewVeryEasy Just wanted you to know I am using this hand sewing technique and it is working very well. A mouse got into my granddaughter's stored quilt and did a lot damage. 53 blocks were chewed, including much of the binding and edge pieces, the holes took out all 3 layers of the quilt. I'm using a blind stitch to sew the patches on the front, and using this technique to sew the patches on the back, much quicker than all blind stitch. I will be putting a new back on the quilt so the repairs to the back will not be seen. I'm also replacing the batting in each block. Thank you for your videos, they are much appreciated.

What kind of printer did you use--inkjet or laser? My inkjet ink runs when it gets wet on paper, will the iron setting stop the running?
@SewVeryEasy
@SewVeryEasy 4 жыл бұрын
you can use a laser printer on fabric and it does hold up well. But any special paper will need an inkjet, ironing it will help :)

On my last quilt, I printed the label on a white square, and incorporated that white square into the blocks on the backing fabric. Easy peasy. It was a 4.5" finished, but there was plenty of room for all the information. First time I've done it that way, I usually print with printer, and put into corner with binding.

I love putting the labels on the corners..that way you only have two sides to sew:) The printer is a great time saver too. thanks for watching

When printing on fabric with a printer, should an ink jet printer be used? Or a laser printer?
@SewVeryEasy
@SewVeryEasy 5 жыл бұрын
good question, store-bought ready to go fabric cannot be used in a laser because of the heat, but a jet ink printer can be used
