Prepare the Quilt

• 1). Wash the cotton fabric and tumble dry in low heat. Iron the fabric.
  
  
• 2). Measure the width of the quilt on the side to be hung. Cut the cotton fabric 2 inches tall by the width of the quilt.
  
  
• 3). Fold 1/2 inch on the top and bottom of the cotton and iron, making two creases. These will be the seams facing down.
  
  
• 4). Place the cotton, iron seam part down, on the back of the quilt. Pin in place.
  
  
• 5). Carefully hand-sew the cotton backing to the back of the quilt. Do not sew the sides; the quilt rod will go through them.
  
  

Make the Quilt Hanger

• 1). Buy a wooden pole 1-1/2 inches thick and as wide and long as the quilt, adding 3 inches. Sand the pole.
  
  
• 2). Measure the wall on which you will place the quilt. Mark places for the nails with a pencil.
  
  
• 3). Hammer the nails first. Remove the nails. Insert the nail anchors.
  
  
• 4). Place the curtain rod over the nail anchors and insert the nails securely.
  
  
• 5). Slide the wooden pole through the back of the quilt like a curtain rod. Hang securely on the curtain brackets.
