    Default Need suggestions

    I have made an approzimately 26" X 26" medallion that I have sewn together and quilted and want to attach to a 100% cotton shower curtain. I need suggestions on what would be the best way to position and attach the medallion so that it is level and does not sag. I did not use batting so that it would be lighter. This is for adonation to raise money for Michigan Basset rescue and I want it to look good. As usual I have embarked on a project without a clue how to do it.

    I don't think it will sag....because of the way a shower curtain is hung - the hooks are only say 6 inches apart - so there is no "sag" allowance. I made my cotton shower curtain with a large (24") appliqued Texas star in the middle and it doesn't sag. As a suggestion - why not pin it to the curtain - hang the curtain - and see if it sags....IF it does - i'd just add button holes and double the number of hooks/hangers.

    you can put it on point or square and sew or applique well on all edges. it should hang fine.
