    Way to go...........and you even tag yours? Looks great!!

    Where did you get your tags? I have thought about doing that.

    What does it say?

    I have a few different tags:
    Made Especially for you by Jean
    Made Especially for you by Gigi (for the granddaughters)
    Jean Calderon Creations (I used these for some purses I was making and selling)

    I really don't remember where I got them, but I'm running low, so I did a search today and found them cheapest at Miles Kimball.com.
    They cost more than they did the last time I ordered.
    They are $12.99 for 20 labels.
    They have a few options - you just add your name.

    Thanks Jean...........yeah, after I posted that I was thinking that one of my catalogs 'used' to carry them.......homesew.com but I checked and didn't see any.......they have a 'sister co.' that I can't think of the name right now and they carried them too.

    Would be nice to have some for certain items. THANKS!!
