    I have one of those husbandos, too! Funny... I wait until he's out of earshot and then pound away.... your idea would make him a happy camper... I'll give it a shot...

    Very pretty! I do the same thing with those removable hangers on my closet doors.

    Another way to hang small quilts is to measure the width of the quilt and divide by 3, ie: 15" width, divided by 3 = 5" Cut 2-5" squares and fold them in half, corner to corner to make a triangle. Before you put your binding on place the triangles in the top two corners and baste them down. Then bind. Cut a small dowel to just under the 15" length and put it through the triangles. Then use the removable hooks on the wall. I also don't like putting holes in my walls.

    Lovely quilt. That's a great idea for hanging the quilt and for adding a bit of color to a room that way.
