Embellished Quilt Label

Materials needed:

• pre-printed fabric quilt label or your own designed label
• Kreinik Iron-on metallic threads: 1/8" Ribbon in your desired colors, and #16 Braid in your desired colors
• Kreinik Adhesive Press Cloth
• Mini Craft Iron or home iron

Instructions:

1. The Kreinik Adhesive Press Cloth keeps the adhesive in the thread from making your iron surface sticky. So if your iron isn't already Teflon®-coated, then apply the Adhesive Press Cloth to its surface while it is cool. Kreinik offers these cloths in various sizes to fit popular irons.
2. Turn your iron onto the highest heat setting and let it heat thoroughly.
3. Use the Iron-on threads to decorate your quilt label. In our photograph, we sewed scraps of fabric to the label, and used the threads to decorate the seams, crazy-quilt style. Simply lay the thread at a starting point, cover with your iron, and press for a few seconds until the thread adheres. Continue working your design this way. The thread does not have a right or wrong side, so feel free to fold, curl, shape the thread as desired.
