What You Need To Know About Quilt Wall Hanger

By Kristen Baird


Unless you get the full image of and entire piece of art, you cannot grasp the totality of its look. For artists, the need to see their final output is necessary not only for satisfaction purposes but also for professionalism. Any final check before presenting it in front of the public should be done with the full image in view.

It does not matter what the purpose of the quilt is. If the end goal is to make it look appealing to people, then you must first verify yourself the beauty of the whole image. A quilt wall hanger is a good aid to do this. If you plan on bringing the design somewhere else, this could provide you easier means to transport the entire piece.

When making one, the first step you need to do is to measure that width of your design. Find a cloth that will serve as the rod sleeve and cut it exactly the same width as that of the design. Attach it to your design, fold and stitch the edge to the end of the quilt. This will create a space where you will insert the rod later on.

After this, find a rod, something of good quality that will not easily break when you hang your quilt. It will carry its weight and should therefore be able to withstand it. Get one that has a longer width than the original quilt measurement you have earlier.

Some prefer it to be portable. Others go for the permanent one. You can make this at any vacant surface of your house. In fact, other just make use of nails and hang the rods in there. Those who want to get rid of the hassle prefer to buy one. There are commercial hangers that can easily be attached to walls.

Having a portable hanger is a better choice when you are on the move. This is also preferred by those who are joining competitions. Since they move a lot, they want to have something which can easily be placed anywhere. If you are just working at home, having a permanent one, meaning something that you attach to a vacant wall can be ideal.

Be reminded that even hangers can be important part of the art already. If you are joining a competition for instance, it will be great if you couple your gorgeous design with a good looking hanger. Since it is on top, this is likely to be seen first by the judges. Something which blends well or complements the image that you have is a great choice.

Lastly, consider the manufacturer of the product. A trusted manufacturer is sure to give you satisfaction on your purchase. They can even offer you tips on how to maximize the use of the material of what type suits your design well. There are many of them, but not everyone offers quality service. Be choosy.

Be free to express your creativity but be critical in polishing your craft. Hangers are valuable in the kind of work that you are doing. Take time to choose a good quality one. If you do not know where to start looking, feel free to ask some of your closest friends.
