fabricluvr.. you can definitely do this yourself with help only on the holding it up. he drilled holes in the backboard before attaching it to the wall. he used anchors to screw the backboard to the wall. here's where you need help. screw through the backboard and the wall to attach the backboard firmly. that never comes off again. he drilled holes in the ends of the front board and drilled matching holes in the backboard, but he didn't screw through yet. at this time we slipped the frontboard inside the sleeve. now you need help again. with someone holding one end, you screw the other end through both boards loosely. go to the end being held for you and screw that firmly. go back to the first end and firm up the screws. make sure you center the quilt as you go.

does that make any sense? one person can do the building, but you need some help in the holding.
