    I was watching this video...there is a lot of them...but when watching it...thought hey you can staple your quilt top to a picture frame and hang it. Hmmm....I just may have to make a few. when I get bored of the picture or would like a change I can make it into a quilt. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOdh8...eature=channel

    When my DH had his woodshop, he made me frames for my wallhangings. Really miss him doing that. Have kept some of the frames thinking that whenever I make a hanging that fits one, I'll use it.

    Would love to see other ideas...I love to quilt but how many quits do I meed for my beds. I am making some for family members which I enjoy but its not cheap...and people have no idea how much they really cost...I have been asked so many times to donate...I don't mind donating a few small ones with scraps but the backing and batting still adds up to quite abit of $.I am thinking raffles..use some of the raffle money to make another quilt for material for another raffle. that way only your time is free.
