Thinking outside the box...

I found an old orchard ladder on Craigslist that I am going to sand & finish so that I can use it in my sewing studio to display quilts. I'll have to post pictures when I get it done.

Has possibilities.

I have an orchard ladder that I have my grandmother's quilts hanging on in my bedroom. It stands up in the regular fashion though.

I've also seen the second pic done with pillows hanging from the rod, they were tied on with tab ties, which would be nice for reading in bed at night and your pillows wouldn't shift down under you. Both of these are very nice ideas! I love inspiration pictures, thanks for sharing them.

Ive seen the ladder used upright but not lengthwise I like it..we have a nice large quilt over our bed as the headboard

Love the ideas !! Thank you so much for sharing ... I like not have to ad a sleeve to old quilts before I can hang them and that I can fold and refold them and change them on a whim. Ladder on it side - Great idea. I have an orchard ladder that we use at a local show that is way to tall for my house but it works really great !

Love the ladder! I see a yard sale shop in my future! Time to look at 'things' outside their box again. :)

I have a ladder similar to the first picture, but I have mine standing on the floor. This way I can hang a quilt on each rung.
I have 5 lap size quilts on it. I posted a picture several weeks ago under 'How do you display your quilts.' I would post the picture again but have since deleted it.

I don't think I would do anything to it other than seal it! You'll take away from the antiqueness.

Rose Bagwell 05-18-2011 06:41 AM

I like.
