Method of attaching label?

[Linny]

I've typically sewn the label on the front of the bags but I was wondering if I could fold the label in half (or even leave it unfolded) and secure it in a side seam sort of like a tag but visible on the outside? It's no problem if you'd prefer that I continue with the sewn flat method. I was looking at some of the fabrics I have for bags and was thinking the tag would get lost in the chaos of the print.

Hi Linny. There used to be a pod in Tokyo who experimented with sewing the label into the seam so that it stuck out like a tab. See http://www.morsbags.com/phpBB2/viewtopi ... c&start=60 Page 5

Personally I prefer it flat on the front of the bag - I find it doesn't get lost visually even in quite strong patterns, and the idea is that it should be pretty prominent - it is the most important thing about the bag, really. We want people to be able to see the web address clearly. What I occasionally do - particularly if there is a suitable piece of material left over - is to sew the label onto a pocket which could be plain or contrasting material and sew that onto the front of the bag (sew round sides & bottom, leave the top open to receive shopping lists). Does add to the work & time involved though.
