I've hung quilts with the sleeve method for years and agree that it is labor intensive--but a couple years ago I decided to try the wooden clips that are sold for this purpose. They are wonderful. It's 2 pieces of wood. One attaches to the wall and the other attaches to that with a screw that encloses the edge of the quilt. For a big quilt you need 5. I change my quilts seasonally and this is really much easier.
