I have a small quilt I use for a bath mat. It's draped over the side of the tub when not in use. No mildew problem at all. It's washed about every other week.

Not a bad idea. I have framed photos and children's art work in my bathrooms, but not in the part where there is a tub/shower.

Our guest bathroom is decorated for every holiday/season. Each season has its own machine appliquéd quilt square on display. :-)

My bathroom is so tiny that I have no space for decoration. Jeepers, there's barely enough room for the necessities.

I've always had some sort of handwork in my bathrooms everywhere we've lived.

I've never had a problem with anything mildewing except inadequately sealed wallboard (obviously installed by someone who was not a professional) around the tub itself.

I like that idea, what did you use for backing?

I alway "audition" my hangings in my bathroom. There I can sit and evaluate it as long as I like.

Whenever I visit quilt shops, I always make sure I go to the bathroom (even if not needed) just to see the many little quilts, table runners, etc. Such Fun!
