She wants to hang it! Now what should I do?

I do this on one wall. The only down side is the teeth in the clips can dig into the fabric so it might not be such a good idea for such a special quilt. If you sew a sleeve on by hand, it's not difficult to remove later. Might be a lot less damage to quilt and only a couple of nail holes in the wall.

I would never use push pins on a finished quilt. I would put a sleeve on the top and on the bottom. Hang from a rod and put a dowel/lathing strip (cut to fit) in the bottom. This should insure it will hang level, square and flat for as long as she wants it to hang. Then the sleeves can be removed or left on , they are not in the way to leave on the quilt.
