Now that the piano quilt is done and on it's way to CA, what is next on my agenda?  I have four quilts that need labels.  I had to do a little searching last evening to find my fabric stamp pad.  After locating it, I was ready to get the labels made.  I cut some scrap fabrics - 2 pieces of white and 2 pieces of cream - and pressed them onto freezer paper.  I stamped each piece with my rubber stamp and then hand wrote the receipent's name, a date, and my name.  The labels were then pressed and the raw edges folded under.  I have the labels pinned on, but I was just too tired to do any sewing.  I sew them on tonight and that will be a good job done!
Two of these quilts are for this weekend.  One is for next week when I go to Charm to work at the quilt shop for two days.  One of the ladies that works there is adopting a baby.  The fourth quilt is for a couple that just had their second baby.  I am going to have to make some baby quilts for my stash.  I just don't have many to choose from right now.  It is amazing how many baby quilts that I give away.  I didn't think I knew that many people.
