Topic of the day: Three Small Fall Wall Quilts
Someone asked me recently how I hang my small quilts. I usually switch them out each season, and sometimes hang them right over something else. For example,
This small quilt is now hanging in the front entry:
The size of this little quilt is 17 inches by 17 inches, and the hsts are 3/4 inches square. How did it get there? It is simply slipped over the mirror that is always hanging there:
In the computer room, I have a fall leaf quilt that was paper pieced:
This one measures 14 in. by 18 in. I think it was a kit, but I don't remember. The wooden dowel is slipped into the triangle corners on the back and is resting on a picture hanger/nail in the wall:
The third small fall quilt is propped up in the living room bookcase:
This little black beauty is 14 in. by 14 in. How does it stay there? Here's "the behind the scenes story"
Here's a Halloween pumpkin that I like:
Have you carved your pumpkin yet? If not, what are you working on this week? I love to see all of your pictures and I thank you for linking up with Design Wall Mondays.

Very cute minis. I really like the one on your bookcase. Thanks for sharing how you propped it up.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the great ideas for hanging up mini quilts. I have so many and am always looking for a way to display them. They are all so cute too!
ReplyDeleteLove your small quilts and the way you hang them. I think little quilts are the perfect way to decorate for any season. Thank you for sharing, I look forward to Monday mornings and your posts.
ReplyDeletethanks for the hanging tips for smaller pieces...they are just all so pretty..love the leaves one....hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeletethe picture frame backing is a great idea!....I don't carve our pumpkins. After Hallowe'en I cut them up and cook down the pulp for pumpkin pies. I know that jack o'lantern pumpkins are not as sweet as pie pumpkins but by the time I add sugar and spices I don't think anyone could tell the difference. And I feel very thrifty. (Though last year a squirrel chomped into one of the pumpkins and "carved" it for us.)
ReplyDeleteI bought some vintage wooden topped slacks hangers, with the hanger hook at the top.Perfect
ReplyDeleteLove that little black quilt! Almost looks like tiny orange bats in a night sky! :-) Thanks for sharing your quilt display secrets... I need to start adding those triangle pockets when I bind.
ReplyDeleteNo pumpkin carving here yet this year...maybe this weekend.
How clever you are! I never thought of slipping one over a mirror or picture frame. Thanks for the great ideas. I love all your little quilts!
ReplyDeleteAll great quilts! It's good you get them out for display. My favorite in this group is the black and orange - I'm sure because that's the color mood I'm in every late October. Happy Halloween!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your quilts and how you hang them. I love that pumpkin! Oh so cute.
ReplyDeleteHi Judy, thanks for sharing your hanging secrets. I really like the one in the bookcase also!
