It is important to have the proper apparatus when you plan to hang a quilt. Wood that touches the fabric can cause discoloration of the fabric on a quilt. Improper hanging of a quilt can result in a quilt that begins to sag and causes stress on points in the fabric of the quilt. Here is a good tip for hanging your quilt.

Here’s an inexpensive way to display quilted wall hangings.

* Make a split-sleeve (two-pieces) hanging pocket to produce a center opening.

* Cut a wood piece to the width of the quilt and attach a saw-tooth picture hanger in the center.

* Insert the wood piece through the pocket and have the picture hanger exposed in the center of the pocket opening.

This is great idea when presenting the piece as a gift.
