I have a big problem with hanging quilts using the ring clips and a rod. A sleeve is really easy to add to the back and will provide equal weight all along the rod. The clips don’t provide the proper hanging weight and could very well stretch the borders. I’ve been doing quilting for 40 years come this September and was taught to always provide equal hanging across the whole quilt. In the other hand, a small quilt with c,iOS and rings would be just fine. A large quilt is really heavy and I sure wouldn’t want to damage the edges. Thanks for listening to my humble opinion.
