 3 members like this. Date: 11/21/12 10:59 AM I just wanted to share the labels that I had made! I had a friend do the design; I had some pretty specific qualifications. I wanted it to be "gender neutral" but colorful so I could use them for both my sons and daughter. I needed the design to be able to be rotated, so I could put it in side seams OR vertically at the neck. So we went with a few different variations of Paisley (3--one for each of my kiddos)

Then I ordered them from theCustom Couture Label Co. Dianne was an absolute dream to work with! They were $40 for 100 sew in, no fray labels. (NAYY) -- Edited on 11/21/12 10:59 AM -- ------ http://www.seamstressintraining.blogspot.com |

Date: 11/21/12 3:11 PM Thanks for posting this. I have always been put off by the high cost, but this looks doable. 100 labels will last me for a while. ------ Taking in is happier than letting out.

Date: 11/21/12 7:49 PM Nope! I would compare them to twill tape. Not quite as soft as satin labels (these are just a tad thicker), but not in the least bit irritating. ------ http://www.seamstressintraining.blogspot.com |

Date: 11/29/12 3:32 PM I have made a few on soft grosgrain ribbon but found it tedious on my 430 doing the lettering. These look great. ------ Joan
