Placement and use questions
Where do these side labels go?
The catalog says they are designed to sew perfectly into side seams and pockets. That makes them a detail for garment construction rather than a label you add after finishing. If you are making a top, dress, or pair of pants, plan the label into the side seam before you sew it closed. For pockets, decide whether the label sits on the pocket edge or inside the pocket opening before you attach it.
Can I use them on quilts or bags instead?
The supplied information only describes side seams and pockets. It does not confirm suitability for quilt backs, bag linings, or other applications. If you want to use them outside those described placements, treat it as an experiment and test on a scrap first. The labels are small, so they may be less visible on a large quilt than on a garment seam.
How many labels come in a pack, and what colors?
Each pack contains 8 labels: 2 each in blue, green, pink, and yellow. That gives you a small range of blooms to match different projects. If you are making a set of garments in one color family, you may find yourself using one color faster than the others. The multipack format suits sewists who want variety rather than a single uniform label.
Are these labels pre-folded or flat?
The catalog does not specify whether the labels are flat or folded. The product name says "side" labels, and the description says they are designed for side seams and pockets, but the supplied information does not confirm a fold, end-fold, or any particular attachment style. Check the physical product when it arrives before you plan your sewing step.

Sewing and attachment questions
How do I sew a side label into a seam?
The catalog does not provide step-by-step sewing instructions. As a general sewing approach, you would typically place the label in the seam allowance before sewing the side seam, so the label is caught in the stitching and faces outward when the seam is pressed. The exact method depends on the label's construction, which the supplied information does not describe. Test on a scrap of similar fabric first.
What sewing machine settings should I use?
The supplied information does not include machine settings, needle size, thread type, or stitch length. Those choices depend on your fabric and the label's material, which is not specified. Use the settings you would normally use for a woven label of similar weight, and always test on a scrap before sewing the final seam.
Can I sew them by hand?
The catalog does not say whether hand sewing is recommended. If you prefer hand sewing, a small running or whip stitch may work, but the supplied information does not confirm this. Treat hand attachment as something to test on a sample first.
Do I need special thread or a special needle?
No specific thread or needle is mentioned in the supplied information. The labels are woven, but the fiber content is not given, so there is no confirmed recommendation. Use standard sewing thread and a needle appropriate for your fabric. If the label feels stiff, a smaller needle may help, but that is general sewing judgment rather than a catalog instruction.
Washing and care questions
Are these woven labels washable?
The supplied information does not state whether the labels are washable, nor does it give washing temperature, drying, or ironing instructions. The product is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, which relates to harmful substance testing, not to washability. Because care instructions are not confirmed, treat the label as you would any unknown woven trim: wash a test piece first, or choose a cool, gentle wash setting and avoid high heat until you know how it behaves.
Can I iron the label?
Ironing instructions are not supplied. If you press the seam, use a pressing cloth and test on a scrap first. Avoid pressing directly on the label with high heat until you have confirmed how it responds.
Will the colors bleed or fade?
The catalog does not provide colorfastness information. The labels come in blue, green, pink, and yellow, but there is no confirmation about bleeding or fading. If you are sewing them into a garment that will be washed with light colors, test a label in a small bowl of water first to see if any color releases.
Buying and project planning questions
How many packs should I buy?
Each pack has 8 labels, 2 of each color. For a single garment, one pack gives you plenty of choices. For a set of matching garments, count how many side seams or pockets you plan to label. If you want all labels in one color, you will get only 2 per pack, so you may need multiple packs. The multipack is best for sewists who like variety across projects.
Are these labels good for handmade gifts?
They can add a small floral detail to a handmade garment or pocket. The catalog describes them as a pop of color for side seams and pockets, which suits gift sewing where you want a visible but subtle finish. Keep in mind that care instructions are not supplied, so if you are gifting a garment, you may want to include a note that the label's washability is not confirmed.
What is the price?
The catalog price is USD 8.76, with a comparison price of USD 12.00. That is the only pricing information supplied. Price may change, so check the current listing before you buy.
