I made this quilt for my SIL as his fish quilt but it had horses also. So I added pictures of him and his wife and sm. daughter. He has it hanging on their wall to the downstairs on a fishing rod. Looks very nice hanging that way. Thanks for looking.

That is really nice! How did he hang it? Are there several short tabs that button over the rod? I have been collecting patterns of fish and fabrics to make my DH a fishing quilt and I like the idea of hanging it on a rod!
