Where do you get your labels that you sew in your clothes? I'd like to get some to label that I made it, but also what size the garment is.

I know this is not exactly what you were asking for but it is what I use. I have a Dymo (http://global.dymo.com/enUS/Products/LetraTag_QX50.html) label maker. You can get iron on tape (http://global.dymo.com/enUS/LabelAttribute/Iron-on.html) for it. Nothing fancy but I use it for size lables. You could also print your own iron on labels on your computer if you wanted them to be a little fancier. Gina

That would work. My family is asking me what I want for Christmas. Do the iron ons stay in or do you reinforce stitch it.

I make my labels with heat set marking pens, rubber stamps of cool ladies with hats and my signature. Dorothy |

Bren -- I got the stamps and pens at the hobby store -- Michael's or (I'm having a senior moment here and can't think of the name of the store but it's the same kind of store). You would think you would be able to buy the fabric pens at JoAnn's but all they have in the stores near here are for paper. The heat set ones were not with the stamps in the craft store but on the other side of the store. And as for you Bren, I'm afraid I will end up being an after Xmas elf because I was tossed an extra assignment this week -- and I sure can use the money -- but haven't mailed your package. Dorothy |
