I am trying to find my wife an enclosed quilt rack, her grandmother passed away a short time ago and left her 2 made by hand quilts.
We have dogs and cats, so she keeps the quilts put away. She doesn't want them to get ruined by the animals. Even tho it bothers her a great deal that she cannot display the quilts for all to see.
Thanks
Damon

Hi and welcome from the sunny state of Florida!!
I'm sure someone will have the info you're looking for. I've seen them at flea markets, craft fairs, and quilts shows. Maybe someone that just went to the Houston show will have some info for you.

Here is one at JC Penney. There are thousands out there. Try googling "glass quilt rack" , "enclosed quilt rack" and "glass quilt display case". You will find many beautiful ideas.

I saw one at the Houston quilt show - it was basically a cabinet totally encased in glass, and the quilts stacked on top of each other. Perhaps go to www.quilts.com and ask them who the vendor was, I'm sure they would be happy to guide you. Happy hunting!!!

I see them at flea markets and amish stores, I have seen them that can hang up to three so you should find one easily. If you are close to ohio there are a couple flea markets that have them all the time made of oak.

This one is beautiful -- I got one twice that size at the Houston Quilt show a couple of years ago and now - ITS FULL TO THE TOP. I think I need to get me another one.

I hope you find one that you are looking for. They are great for storing quilts in and still able to see them instead of them being put away in a closet.
