This is the label of the South Carolina Quilt History Project on Ida Williams’ Trip Around the World quilt. Many of the documentation projects distributed labels for each of the documented quilts encouraging families to add them to the quilts. By labeling quilts, families, researchers, or later owners (sometimes museums or collectors) are able to contact the documentation project archives with the quilt’s documentation number. This type of information is also included in the Quilt Index.
