I've sewn sleeves on for shows and then had to take them off to sew a different size on for other shows. It was never a problem and didn't leave marks.
They also have those clamp curtain rings, but I'd be concerned that they'd leave marks on the edge of my quilt.
Could you fold over the top edge and pin it along the length with straight pins? Just a thought.
How about putting temporary 2" vertical strips of matching fabric every 8" or so that the quilt hangs from over the rod? You could easily sew those in and take them out later.
