Wall Hanging Swap for March - June 2017
#141
I have a question for those participating. What type of hangers do you prefer? Corner triangles that you can slip a dowel into and hook on a hook or a nail, a sleeve with open ends, or loops extending over the top. I don't want to make something unusable. And maybe there are other ways i don't know about. Thanks for your input.

Here is what I have been doing on the last few WHings. I noticed that on some whith triangles, if they aren't big enough they have a tendency to drupe in the center. So I came up with and idea of a sleeve with a cut out so it can be hung with one pin or picture hanger.

Another idea is to use one or more of those curtain hangers that have a gripper, like a cloths pin on the end.

Ube I like your ideal, did you create it or do you have a pattern, you know me I need a pattern for everything. what are the measurements width wise I know I would have to make it as long as the WHings. what do the curtain hangers that have the gripper like a cloths pin look like? I don't really use curtains in my home.

Here is a picture of the curtain hanger. There are different sizes and colors. They come in a package of eight at the store that begins with J. They cost about $8. I think they are perfect for small quilts and will hang with just a straight pin in the wall.

I don't know what got into me today, busy, busy, busy.
Here is a quick tutorial on the hanging sleeve.

There is apart 2 that just shows cutting the back off to make it lighter and less bulky for smaller quilts.
hope this helps.

I did another tutorial for attaching the sleeve to the quilt. Hope it is helpful.
