We are putting the binding and hanging sleeve on our church quilt. It will hang along one of the long sides (90"). My question is----Is using about a 3 or 4" piece of pvc pipe and using fishing line at each end to hang it going to give it enough support or do we need to run more fishing line at points in the middle also? I figured line at each end, but others are worried that it will sag once it is suspended from the hooks with only 2 lines. I thought that the pvc pipe would prevent that from happening. Anyone have any theories or experience in hanging a quilt? The quilt measures 70" by 87" and it is viewed from the side--a pictorial quilt. Everyone raved over how good a job the quilter did, and it is a knockout. I'll post a picture of the qork in progress this weekend.
