Where Do You Put A Quilt Label?
When it comes to adding a quilt label to your treasured creation, we recommend attaching it to the back of the quilt before completing the hand-stitching of the quilt bottom. Once the quilt top has been machine-stitched, you can prepare your custom label for placement.
A popular choice for positioning the label is in the lower-left corner of the quilt back. Align the label with the quilt edges, pin it into place, and then secure your custom quilt label. This traditional method involves hand-sewing the label, ensuring a personal touch and a secure attachment.
If you're concerned about the label being removed from your quilt, consider attaching it through the quilt backing fabric, sewing it right through to make removal more challenging. This approach offers added security while preserving the label's integrity and appearance.
What Should Be On A Quilt Label?
A quilt label is the perfect canvas for showcasing essential details about the quilt, its maker, and any other relevant information related to its heritage or care. With a custom woven label from Dutch Label Shop, you have the freedom to include any details you deem significant. Custom quilt labels often feature the following information:
- Name of the quiltmaker
- Name of the quilt
- Quilt design or style
- Year of completion
- Location where the quilt was crafted
- Name of the recipient
- Occasion for the quilt's creation
- Personalized message or sentiment
- Special care instructions
- Any additional information that’s important to you
As a guideline, all quilt labels should contain at least the quiltmaker's name and the year the quilt was completed. Additional details such as the quilt's name (if applicable), the location where it was made, and care instructions can further enrich the label's narrative.
With Dutch Label Shop, creating a personalized quilt label is a seamless experience, allowing you to share the unique story behind your treasured quilt for generations to come.
How Do You Make A Triangle Quilt Label?
A popular method for creating a triangle quilt label is to take a square label then fold it diagonally down the middle, creating a triangle shape that can be used as a label in the corner of the quilt. Dutch Label Shop makes it even easier to make the triangle quilt label of your dreams with our woven labels that are made to order with custom shapes and sizes. While ordering, you can let us know what shape and size you are looking for, and our team of label experts is ready and waiting to help you with any special request.
What is the Ideal Size for a Quilt Label?
When considering the size of a quilt label, the decision ultimately depends on your preferences and the amount of information you wish to include. At Dutch Label Shop, we recommend a size of 2.70" x 0.90" as the optimal dimension for quilt labels. This size provides ample space for your personalized details while maintaining a balanced look on your quilt.
For those seeking a more compact option, our most popular label size is 2.40" x 0.80", which is suitable for 1–3 rows of text. This slightly smaller size still allows for essential information while keeping the label discreet and visually appealing.
With Dutch Label Shop, you can easily customize the perfect quilt label with a maximum size of 7.85” x 7.85”.
