How To Hang A Quilted Wall Hanging. Since we're swapping mini quilts that can be used as wall art, I thought it might be helpful to give you some tips about how to hang your quilt and get them ready to display. To hang a quilt, start by purchasing a hanging rod that's at least as long as your quilt is wide.
The craft of quilting produces textile art suitable for hanging on a wall. The Pocket Method The magnets on the wall hold the rod and your quilt in place, without having to drill any holes into the wall. You can audition fabrics, or block placement, and you can get a sense of how your quilt top is taking shape as you position each block in its place.
A hanging sleeve allows a quilt to hang evenly, preventing the stretch that nearly always occurs when you secure the project to a wall with a series of pins or other fasteners.
A quilt hanging sleeve can be permanent or temporary and it can be sewn on after or at the same time you apply binding.

Also, easy to adjust by pulling out the extendable rod for different quilt sizes (and to make sure the quilt hangs straight on the wall).
