Like the idea of the embroidery hoop as running out of wall space here

My full size quilts I hang in my hallway. The house is bungalow so it has a long hall. I cut a trim board 3 inches wide by about 90 inches long. Then glues clothes pins onto it. Used a strong, sturdy glue and lots of wood clothes pins. Then I nailed the board with clothespins onto the wall at the ceiling. Hang the quilts by clothepinning them. No need for a hanging sleeve. The hall lighting is tracklighting so it is more like an art gallery. And get help and a ladder to hang or take down the quilt.

I have a quilt rack.lol Not many out. My friend however just built a new home with a huge quilt room and spaces all over the house for quilts and she uses the wooden quilt hangers. It is beautiful.

On the bed, and on quilt racks which are in all the bedrooms(for the extras).:)

I have a very large quilt rack that DH made me a couple of years ago. It holds about 12 quilts. Quilts on the backs of my chairs, beds. I have curtain rods on the walls all over the house for wall hangings.
