I am posting some pictures of the Crazy Patch hangers I make as well as floral fabric ones with a gathered tops.

Both these designs are my own patterns.

Oh my, they're almost too pretty to cover with mere clothes! :thumbup:

I start with a raw wooden coat hanger (they are getting harder to get now days) and I pad them with strips of left over quilt wadding and then cover them with one piece of wadding over the previous padding. I like to make the padding quite firm and it depends on the size of the cover as to how much padded there is to do. I also make machine embroidered covers and old fashioned silk crochet covered ones as well.

Your lovely hangers would add real beauty to the closet! They are very pretty-each of them is special. They would be fun to use. Just a special touch.

Must make you smile every time you open your closet! Beautiful!

Beautiful.

Beautiful hangers.

Very pretty hangers and you are so creative. I don't think I would even want to put clothes on them-I would just hang them up to admire.

red-warrior 01-13-2017 08:30 AM

What a great idea and so pretty!

lynnie 01-13-2017 08:36 AM

Betty, they are so pretty. they'd be the star of the closet!
fantastic work!

GingerK 01-13-2017 08:41 AM

i have many padded hangers (and I agree--plain old wooden hangers are harder and harder to find) because I hang all my tops to dry. Mine are utilitarian. Yours are works of art!!

Aren't you clever and talented! Those would make terrific gifts!

copycat 01-14-2017 03:24 AM

Those hangers are sure to put a smile on the face of anyone who receives them. I could never pick a favorite. I like them all!

coopah 01-14-2017 04:45 AM

Gorgeous hangars! Too pretty to use. Almost.

dinlauren 01-14-2017 05:37 AM

Those are so beautiful... My grandmother used to crochet around the metal hangers and they also not only looked so pretty, but the clothes stayed on so much better. Great designs you have.

orangeroom 01-14-2017 06:35 AM

Absolutely LOVE your antiquey type padded hangers! What a lovely nostalgic feeling I get just looking at them! Great job!

EmiliasNana 01-14-2017 06:55 AM

My grandmother used to do the crocheted hangers, but just did it over the wood. I still smile every time I use them as a remembrance of her. Yours are gorgeous and so clever. You can tell you put a lot of thought and work into each and every one. I'm sure your recipients are in awe!

lawsonmugs 01-14-2017 08:21 AM

These are beautiful. So many styles too. My mother also crocheted over the wooden hangers after padding them. I am going to try to make one .

ladydukes 01-14-2017 10:12 AM

Absolutely lovely! They make great gifts!

ladydukes 01-14-2017 10:14 AM

Is there a pattern to make the padded hangers?

sewingsuz 01-14-2017 10:29 AM

Your hangers are just awesome.
