Labels

On Monday October 19, I am teaching a class called “Digital Fabric Labels” at the lovely shop, Darn Knit Anyway.  It is a quick-and-dirty hands-on class focused especially on making labels for your handmade items.  This is great just in time for the holidays!  Make a quilt label with the name and date that you can stitch to your quilt; a care instructions label for your hand-knit sweater or even hangtags for when you want to sell your work.  You will learn the digital design skills to set up the file you need and then we will talk about ways to get it printed on fabric, paper, sticky vinyl and more.  This is a “beyond the book” class, based on a project from the Spoonflower Handbook.  We show a basic quilt label in the book and this class will show you variations and ways to adapt that idea to work for many different projects.  You need to bring your laptop for the hands on part, but otherwise there are no other materials you need to bring.
