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.

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 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.
