    I painted my livingroom last month and haven't found pictures that were right. After reading some great ideas here for displaying quilts I bit the bullit and hung 2 curtain rods in my livingroom for quilts. These were both vintage quit tops that I put together and quilted. My mom always said "use what you have". :thumbup: :thumbup:

    I like that! My mom, sister, and I have done that in our homes. I also have mini quilts handing on the walls in the hallway. I like your quilts!

    Those curtain rods were a great idea. They add to the vintage look of the quilts. You have a good eye for decorating.

    I love the quilts and how they are hung...so beautiful!
    I have a wood shelf with a dowel rod waiting to be put up in my family room. I think I will do this soon seeing how nice yours looks.
    Thanks for sharing!

    I agree with your Mom. Your quilts are one of a kind, very pretty & add color. Winners all around.
