Labels & Finished Quilts

Look what arrived in the mail Friday afternoon! Labels!

I ordered some custom made cotton tape to be used as labels from Lilla Lotta. This Etsy store has wonderful quality cotton tape/ribbon which Anna from Lilla Lotta, is happy to customize to your needs. I can highly recommend Lilla Lotta, Anna's communication was excellent, the service was speedy and a top quality custom product.

I immediately put the labels to good use. (I am notoriously lazy when it comes to labeling quilts!). I have finished the three baby quilts, label and all!

Baby Quilt - One

Baby Quilt - Two with Red binding

Baby Quilt - Three

The quilts are all the same size, measuring 25.5 inches x 35 inches. Baby quilts One and Three have the same binding, a green Micheal Miller dot called Heuvos. The backing of both these quilts is a lovely soft pastel blue monkey flannel fabric.

Baby Quilt One, Two and Three - Backing Sock Monkey by Erin Michael for Moda in blue flannel, and yellow cotton

Baby Quilt two has a Red binding with White polka dots. The backing is also a Sock M0nkey fabric, but this time just a cotton fabric. All three quilts have a top quality natural cotton batting by Matilda's Own.


These baby quilts have been added to my Etsy store or feel free email me if you would like more details.

  15. That is exactly how I label my quilts! And it's one of my favourite parts ... I feel quite posh having my own label ;-)

  24. I am also thinking of putting the same kind of labels. The quilt I'm working on for a friend who has been diagnosed with breast cancer, the label will be there. Btw - I have just put your blog in my google reader. Wonder why I have not found you earlier.
