How to hang a quilt on the wall without a sleeve.

I have seen quilts totally ruined because they were hung from separate clamps clips rings etc along the top edge. They are available in styles that match just about any decor. Laura from sew very easy has an easier way. Quilt found on petra prins.

There are lots and lots of other quilt clip hangers for the wall. These clips fasten onto the edge of the quilt and get mounted on a nail in the wall. A dowel rod is then inserted in the tube which can either be hung on a couple of nails or in conjunction with a nice looking wood quilt wall hanger. Hem each edge of the 8 strip by turning in the edges a and then another.

But if you don t want a sleeve on the quilt use a full bar clamp in order to evenly distribute the weight of the quilt so it doesn t stretch. Slip the dowel over cleats attached to the wall and you have a safe nearly invisible wall hanger that makes your textile the star of the show. Sew as close to the edge of the folded fabric as possible. They are good to use if your quilt doesn t have a hanging sleeve.

An easy way to do this is to simply stitch a tube shaped sleeve across the entire back of the quilt and then run a dowel through it. There are many ways to hang a large quilt however most involve hand sewing a sleeve on the back. Use quilt hanging clips. The wood quilt wall hanger attaches to the wall and is a permanent fixture and will allow you to change out your quilts using the sleeve hanger on the back of the quilt and a dowel rod.

Trim the long strip down to 8 x 54. Iron the creases flat and pin in place. Here is a set of traditional wood hanging clips. Her simple method is quick easy and even provides scraps in case the quilt ever needs to be repaired.
