I have a 25 gallon crock that the cuddle quilts get thrown into. When GK are here--often the some quilts get tossed and one of them curled up in the crock watching TV!

I'm very fortunate in having a husband that is just as creative as I am. :) He's made a few pressured quilt racks for me that I just LOVE. The best part...he altered my collection of Polish Pottery knobs to be the pressure knobs!

I have a piece of antique wrought iron fencing that is turned on end and used just like a ladder to hold quilts I have made. It is painted white, so I don't get any residue from metal on the quilts. I wish it was a little longer/taller. I have 8 quilts on it. Guess I should take a picture, so maybe I'll do that tonite and post it here. I also have a traditional standing quilt rack in my living room that I use to display my vintage quilts.

What is "pressured"? Never heard that term before.
It "clamps" the quilts without hurting them, there's a little notch for the binding to set into without getting squished. He calls them "pressure racks"...it's two pieces that clamp the quilt I think is more accurate. :)
