What about using a hockey stick as a hanging rod? Just a thought.
I have a Christmas wall hanging that I hang on a dowel that is longer than the quilt is wide. I painted the too long ends gold and hang ornaments over them on ribbons along side of the quilt. Looks nice & I can use the same dowel the rest of the year under another wall hanging that it fits nicely under.
Love yours with the fishing lures! I may have to come up with a take-off from your idea. If I do I'll post a pic. What a way to have even more fun with quilting!
