Cost: Members free

Description:
Learn options for labeling your quilts. Always tell the story. Never gift or let a quilt out of your studio without sharing the history of the who, what, where, or why journalism. Remember finding old quilts and wishing you knew what their history was? I will share stories of how to think about labeling your quilts and then options for placement on the quilt back (or front if you are really brave)! This class will be more of a learning "how" to make labels and options than attaching the label to the quilt class.
