well I did something different! I don't have a wall I use so I put up a design curtain. Dh did end up putting me up a rod and I made this blanket into a sliding curtain. Since it gets moved I do pin my blocks to it but it is working great! I don't have a pic of the rod but here it is while it was tacked up.
