You are the most creative folks I know...please help me with a design or idea to use pieces from a quilt made by my great-grandmother. Granny King made a number of quilts and when they were passed down (after years of use) from my grandmother, several of them were just "cutters." And I ended up with one of them. Most of the colors are still nice and I would like to do something with them and display them in my sewing room.

They are too fragile to make them into something to use. I thought about framing them but I live in a humid coastal climate and don't think they would do well enclosed in a frame.

My current thought is to set them somehow and make a wall hanging. I have a perfect spot for a long narrowish hanging in a place where there is no direct sunlight.

What are your ideas? For anything I could make or do to display these pieces????

Two pieces each roughly 13 x 15
