How do I hang this?
 

It's just the top but it shouldn't take long to finish. I have no clue how to hang this on the wall. I want it in my foyer for all to see but the only thing I can think of is to use the 3M strips. Is there another way I can hang this on a wall?

Two sticks ie pieces of wood one vertical one diagonally from corner to corner fitting snugly in triangles fitted into the corners. Now put a hook at the top .
I have used sticks some times as I live in a small village and a walk to the woods with the dogs is easier than go into ton. A flat pice of wood is easier to put a hook in than round. But could use either.

It is spectacular! I will be watching to see what others say for hanging suggestions.

Is that a OBW or what is the pattern? It's lovely!

it's a lovely quilt. with dottymo's suggestion, i'd be afraid that the top two angled edges might sag. i would put two sleeves on the backs of those top two edges and put 'sticks' through the sleeves from top corner to the side corners. then i would put a cross brace from side corner to side corner. the bottom 'triangle' section would hang free. if you put your label on that bottom corner, you could then flip it up to show the label.

It's an embroidery design from Secrets of Embroidery. Each block took 2 hours. I did it in between other projects. I like the idea of the wood, I'm gonna try it. Thanks

I use small push pins. They leave tiny holes that can be filled with paint when we move. We are renters.

Here is a graphic that is similar to Tartan's method.
In the graphic you are looking at the BACK of the quilt - the blue is the color of the "house insulation foam board" found at Lowes. The board is cut the size of your quilt.

Beautiful workmanship! Thanks, Jan for the information provided.

I'm interested in the notion described a few months ago for hanging large quilts on the wall; I cannot locate the prior thread describing this product.

Beautiful wall hanging, you did a fantastic job. How about mounting it on 1/4 inch plastic core board, like the stuff they make for organizing your fabric. The boards that you wrap your fabric around and can then stand them up on a shelf. This would give the quilt stability without adding weight. Attach a 3M hook on the back and then hang. This would display your work, wouldn't weigh a lot and shouldn't make a big hole in the wall.

Or - thin sticks like you would fly a kite maybe

Like DottyMo suggested- put them together just like one does when putting a kite together. Looks great.

I actually use the command picture hanging Velcro strips, cut two in half and Hans so ew the bottom half onto the top two corners than put the other part one and stick it on the wall

I use this on all of my small quilts and when you want to move them you just pull it off the wall no damage

Believe it or not I just staple my quilts to the walls. The staple leave such a small hole it is barely seen. That way I can staple the corners down so it lies flat on the wall.

Command Strips are a great idea! I never thought of it.

A friend of mine has a company that makes a hanging system especially for quilts like this. Check out : www.gonesleeveless.com

I have a wall hanging I modified from a Christmas tree skirt. I had a flat top, but the points would sag. I sewed a small piece of velcro on the offending corner, then placed a piece of Command strip velcro to the wall. It won't hold up a whole quilt, but those points stay flat!
