Pinning up quilts to take photos
#11
LOL, that's called the special touch and only the maker would really notice that it was a mistake, anyone else would say it was unique. :)

i pin them to the drapes over the sliding glass door, that usually works. we do not have rain gutters, but my mom does, and i would be afraid of pulling them away from her house. i have been trying to figure out a way to fasten a quilt to the garage door for pictures, but so far have not figured out the perfect tool for the job. my next finished quilt i think i'm going to really splurge and take it to a photographer :)
