Where did you even find instrustions for something like that?

That is a really nice quilt rack leatherflea. I like that it is on the wall. Not taking up floor space. Simple and lovely.

Dang I just saw 2 of them at good will! That is where I got mine a few years ago. Guess I should have bought them and resold on here!

I use the railing at the top of the stairs and the chairs that sit in the corners of the room that are never used for sitting!

I have 2 quilt racks and a quilt chest. I bought one of the quilt racks a very nice wooden one for $ 4.00 at a garage sale. The other quiltrack I bought at a shop and the quilt chest I ordered. All are very nice. :)

(hmmm, i should probably qualify that statement.)

I really like your quilt rack.

That's much better. ;-)

The more I look at it, the more I'm seeing a floor to ceiling rack, similar in construction. You could probably fit around 9-12 quilts on that.

Ohhh, maybe use one of those inexpensive Billy IKEA bookcases, stabilize it, and put in some dowels to hold the quilts.
I think I'm going to try that!
