"As an award-winning quilter and author, I’ve spent over 25 years understanding that a quilt is never just fabric—it’s a piece of history, a memory. After winning 'Best of Show' at the International Quilt Festival, I realized that the most important part of a quilt isn't the technique; it’s my reason for making it.  We don’t just make quilts to keep people warm; we make them to celebrate a birth, to comfort a grieving friend, or to leave a piece of ourselves behind. I created Quilt Story Labels to ensure those heartfelt reasons are never forgotten.

Why Traditional Quilt Labels are Not Enough

Traditional quilt labels barely have room for a name and a date. But what about the memories incorporated into the quilt? What about a meaningful message to the recipient or the personal story behind the quilt? Why did you choose those colors? What was the reason for the quilt? 

Quilt Story Labels provide the infinite space your quilt’s narrative deserves. By using a discreet QR code, you can link your quilt to a digital sanctuary of photos, voice recordings, and written memories. You no longer have to worry about running out of room on a 4 x 5-inch piece of fabric; your quilt’s complete story travels with it for generations.

Lost Quilts Don't Have to Happen

A quilt is an investment of time, emotion, and history. The thought of a quilt being lost—whether during a move, while traveling to a show, or through a shipping mishap—is a source of genuine anxiety for every quilter. Beyond the sentimental, there is a practical necessity to protect the quilt. 

My custom personalized labels double as a digital return address. If your quilt is ever lost, a simple scan of the label can provide contact information to help your precious heirloom find its way back home. It’s a modern security feature for a timeless tradition, ensuring your hard work stays where it belongs: with family."
