Happy Tutorial Thursday! Today I will show you how easy it is mark your blankets!
Labeling your finished quilts is so easy and a great way to pass down the history of a quilt that has been passed down through the generations. I tend to forget this important step, so adding labels after the quilt is finished is my specialty!
