These are the absolute best quilt labels! Laura works with you to create personal touches so every label is as unique as the quilt it is displaying. Everyone asks me, “Who created your label?” I have a special quilt that needs this special touch”. I highly recommend Heritage Labels and will be back!!!

Embroidered Quilt Label Customized on Quilt Cotton

I previously published a review about Heritage labels which was not favorable. The platform I published on will not allow me to edit or delete it.

Heritage Labels, however, did contact me and was very good about making my experience very positive. I will and have used them again. Laura was extremely helpful with my 2nd label. We went through multiple iterations and she made the perfect label for my new grandsons quilt label!

Thank you Laura!

French horn player

The labels look exactly as ordered! I originally wanted embroidered labels but because of the french horn logo could not get them anywhere, so went with the printed. They will be satisfactory, Im concerned that the ink may wash off and will have to replace them.

Items transferred to fabric appear to be of high quality and exact to photo. I like the quality of the fabric. Packaged well with thick envelope that prevented wrinkles. I would use this service again.
