    Is there anyway you could hang a clothes line rope and hang the small quilts with clothes pins ?

    I doubt it. I have only seen the room and not exact placement. I am not sure if they will even allow anything taped to the wall. Mostly windows around. I also have to drop off my crafts and such and then park across a street.

    Hang several chains (from Lowes) from the quilt stand using large S hooks or plant holders shaped like a big S. Then pin your pieces to the chains. You can also screw an eye into the ends of dowels and and attach between chains with small S hooks for hanging table runners.

    I live near Amish and I got a handmade rack that was much taller than what you typically see. It was well made and I hung a lot of items in a small space. But, I still ended up covering things up it's very hard to display lots of things.

    No, sorry it's put away right now. It's the same as the wooden clothes drying rackj that you buy but about 4 1/2 feet tall of so.

    They all over the place; Walmart etc. and You could find a really pretty assortment of baskets from thrift stores for some. Lay some in basket and draping over sides and hanging on the handle if there is one. Show a display of how one is folded for storage on the bias.[QUOTE=ukdame;7305946]Nice idea but do they still sell those things. Reminds me that I have a newer lightweight metal clothes dryer
