Hello, my name is Luggage
February 19th, 2012
I’ve either made a super mini-quilt or I’ve made a super-colossal, gargantuan nametag. Lots of nametag making going on at guild (Portland Modern Quilt Guild) and I couldn’t wait to get started on one myself. Ever since I saw Faith’s nametag on her flickr and part of her Mini Quilt Monday series - I knew I wanted one too. I love everything Faith does and makes. Faith pretty much could have quilted a little “Dentist appointment, 9:45 on Monday” tag and I would have loved it - she’s THAT rockem sockem brilliant.
I started on mine - and what started out to be nametag size…
… has now grown to cafeteria tray size. How did that happen?!
I’ve added a zippered pocket to my nametag’s back… now I’ve practically made luggage.
Oh well, at least it makes my butt look smaller than a regular nametag. Diet tip: Surround yourself with over-sized objects.

February 19th, 2012I love it. Nothing like a functional name tag. (I laughed out loud at the diet tip.)

Love it!
February 19th, 2012It’s the best name tag ever with your zippy fabric and a zipper!
You’ve done it again! Adorable!
February 19th, 2012Agree with everyone upthred - you are so totally cool - the Prom Queen of the quilting world! :)
February 20th, 2012Good tip! Unless they are giant cakes. That will have an opposite effect I think…
Gorgeous tag btw :-)
February 20th, 2012I LOVE that it has a zip pocket on the back!!
February 20th, 2012So stinkin’ cute!
February 20th, 2012Wow! Your nametag is so wonderful! It matches your Happy Zombie logo perfectly!
Your creativity and talent never cease to amaze me - who else would have thought to add a zipper pocket for Altoids?!?!?!
February 20th, 2012I absolutely love it! And your site. It’s so perky and fun with a touch of old fashioned thrown in. It’s great!
February 20th, 2012So kind of you to make your name tag large enough for the seeing impaired to read it.
It is adorable.,
February 20th, 2012So that’s what I need to make my butt (and everything else) look smaller - a ginormous nametag!
It’s adorable, even as luggage. Or a cafeteria tray.
February 20th, 2012I love it! How cute is that? Thanks for introducing me to Faith - I live outside Chicago. She looks a bit familiar…
February 20th, 2012Wow that is so darn cute! Love all the little details like your cherries. ??? u xo
February 20th, 2012You’re too funny! That nametag is AMAZING. Soooo, so cute!!!
February 20th, 2012Please post more often, you crack me up every time.
February 20th, 2012Hahaha i love this!
February 20th, 2012Fantastic nametag! By the way, where did you find Altoids with Curious George and The Abominable Snowman? Super cute!!!
February 20th, 2012My favorite diet tip…lol! And a very cute name tag, bet you can get your iPhone in there too…especially brilliant!
February 20th, 2012Love it and good advice…off to look for oversized objects. ~Kelly
February 20th, 2012Oh how cute! I LOVE it!!! A great idea for when I send off miss 18 to Tokyo this summer- she’ll be sure to find her luggage with a super sized nametag like that!
February 21st, 2012That nametag looks like alot of sewing fun, the kind that satisfies the creative soul!
February 21st, 2012Looks great but maybe you should call that a passport wallet instead of luggage tag?? Looks like that might work. :)
February 21st, 2012lol, it is beautiful! ;p
February 23rd, 2012OH. MY. GAWD!
February 24th, 2012I just can’t stop chuckling. Too cute! :-)
