I'm debating about how to hang my recently completed wallhanging. In the past I've always put a sleeve on the back to hang it. However, I've been checking out the hanger clips sold by Keepsake Quilting and others. Has anyone had any experiencing with the clips? If so, what did you think?
Thanks!
There are a lot of pretty curtain rods that come with (or have available) pretty clips to match. I'm *almost* willing to bet some batiks that you could find an expandable set-up using those curtain rods that would be more versatile and less expensive than something that is specifically marketed for quilters??? It might be something to think about and compare the versatility and price.

Ooh, I hadn't thought of that Leslie. Great idea! I'm going to have to check this out. :-)
Hi Taria,
That's what I was thinking...if I had some "hang ups" then I could swap the wallhanging out for another as the mood hits. This one is rather large, probably @ 4.5 feet square, so I don't think the push pins would work. I'm glad to know you like the hang-ups.
I know what you mean. It's great to feel "done", then realize you've still got to sew the sleeve on.
I use a brass cafe style curtain rod in my hall. I bought the "pinch- style" rings, and clip these to the binding of the quilt. This way I can change the wall hangings with the seasons or whims. It doesn't bother me that the rod is often wider than the quilt, and it allows me to use lots of rings to support the quilt well.
Thanks Susan! I LOVE this idea. :-) I'm glad to hear it works so well. Next week, I'm off in search of a curtain rod.
