Sewing labels

I've had some woven labels made here: good service and quality, imo.

Thank You Kay I will have a look at those when I get more than 5 mins to myself. i am off fabric shopping this morning, still hunting down that elusive Basque fabric!!

Thank you both. I have had a long look and have ordered from this firm

price seems right and the postage is the same for the whole of Europe for once. I was pleased with my fabric trip this morning I managed to get some stripped fabric which while it isn't the Basque fabric was after is a very good fake/ generic look, and much cheaper than I was quoted by the one company that deigned to answer my query. Mind they are still deciding if my items are suitable for their fabric before they deign to sell me ant!!! I want it to make shoulder bags, while I was there I got some good plain red, orange and fuchsia pink for lining the bags and some much needed iron on vieleene( sigh of relief) now it the making!! Hooray.

Here in the USA I can purchase iron on paper used in making t-shirts. I use this 'paper' to print out many labels per sheet using my computer, cut them apart and iron them onto the finished garments or, when that is not practical, a length of grosgrain ribbon that can be sewn to the garment.

Yes, I am a semi-professi>I don't know why I have never used them before, but I have just realised

Just ordered me up a P-Touch label maker, the kind that USB's to a computer so it can use any fonts. I think there's a fabric label option...will post my findings.
