    We pin them up to the curtains or to the design wall. If it's really small, one of us may hold it, but otherwise, wherever works best to pin it up!

    My son is almost 6 foot tall so he holds up mine.

    My fav picture is still of (can't remember whose hubby) was asked to show the other side of the quilt and turned it around with his "other side" in front of it! Loved his sense of humor.

    I usually hold my own since I am 6ft tall and have someone else take the picture, or I lay it on the couch or hardwood floor and take it myself.

    The last few years I hold mine and daughter takes the pics. I email pictures to a Sister in TN and I want her to know it was made by me. DGD boyfriend held up the quilt in my avatar.

    I usually lay mine on the bed and stand on a step-stool on my tip-toes to take the pic. Sometimes I use my Mom's clothesline.

    My son, sometimes. Usually they are just laying on the floor. DGD isn't tall enough to hold them.

    So who holds your quilt? I have my hubby & adult son hold mine.

    A big thanks to all you anonymous hands & feet we see everyday! Be sure to make them a quilt!

    Oh how funny!!! I was seeing this also :) what great loved ones :) :) :)

    me... I end up laying it on the floor and getting a horrible camera angle. I need to get hubby to start holding them for me I guess
