Default Wall hanging to cover some of my FQs

I made this kit from Moda using Kansas Troubles fabrics as a celebration of their anniversary. It languished in the "to quilt pile" and I finally got it done and hung. It replaces another, but hides some of my fat quarters above my cutting/ironing table in my sewing room. My DH screwed about 1/2" cup hooks into the top of the purchased CD cabinet and cut two 1" x 1/4" slats with equally spaced four "screw eyes" in one of them. I made two hanging sleeves (top and bottom) with the top one having buttonholes for the two middles screw eyes. The two end screw eyes were about 1" from the end and stuck just outside the hanging sleeve. The bottom sleeve holds the other slat to weigh it down and make it easier to flip up when I need to view the FQs. I thought this might give some of you another idea for storage or decoration.
