There's a lesson for all of us. Perhaps we should put grommets in our wall hangings, or if we put sleeves on the backs then we should also give a rod of some kind and brackets for the sleeve to be used with, and put small labels on the front of the wall hangings. After all, original oil paintings are signed on the front, so perhaps our quilted items should be also.
