This is the enclosed quilt rack my DH bought me. He special ordered it from an Amish furniture maker in Indiana.

P.S. He also bought me the quilt. I'm not good enough at applique to have done one like this. In fact, it is entirely done by hand. I have had thumb surgery on my right hand so I don't/can't do hand work anymore.

Lovely Polly - I can't quite understand how it works. Where does the rest of the quilt disappear?

It's brilliant - very decorative. I should hang on to that hubby of yours. Sorry to hear about your thumb, but don't let it get you down.

What a thoughtful husband you have. The rack is beautiful as well as the quilt. I've never seen anything like that. Hmmmm, how many display cases like that can we use????????

I so love the quilt rack! What a cool idea? The quilt is beautiful too. I think the hearts fitting together in a line like that (the quilting) was unique. That was thoughtful of your sweet husband and it shows how much he really knows you.

I have one of these too! It's actually called a 'quilt curio cabinet'. I am lucky enough to live near the Amish makers of these cabinets. It is glassed on all sides and has 2 drop-in wooden dowels to hang your masterpieces on. Mine holds 2 hand-pieced hand-quilted gems done by dearest Aunt Eva. She is gone now but at least I have her quilts to cherish along with many sweet memories.
