stitching your name on a finished piece?

I initial and date all my work using small back stitched letters. I also fix a business card sized label on the inside of the frame with a small note about the piece and who it was stitched for.

I never thought about signing my work, but it makes sense, my daughter signs her drawings and I even sign my scrapbook pages...  I will look on how I can do this

On my large pieces I stitch the name and the year/s in which the work was completed. I hope that when I'm long gone some of my work might be treasured, or at least be a nice historical talking point

I have always stitched my initials and year.  At first I placed near one of the lower corners.  Then I started hiding it in the pattern if I could.  It depends on the project and who the owner will be.  Good luck!

I always put my initials and the year on the lower right corner, I think it's a nice nice to do!

I always put my full name and the date I finished it on every piece I do. I use very tiny letters.

Every great piece of art work should have a signature of some sort.
