Display Your Quilts In The Style They Deserve

By:


Quilting is a unique art form with an illustrious history. Exquisite works of precise stitching and design make quilts valued heirlooms to be handed down through the generations. Quilts tell the stories of their eras as well as their creators with the fabrics that are chosen and used in their designs. Often quilts have been made from articles of clothing worn by family members that are re-purposed in beautiful patchwork quilts as a loving memorial to tie the family together for an eternity. Others "paint" pictures with fabric and thread as glorious works of artistry and skill.

Though most think of a quilt as a beautiful bedding item, they are also used displayed as the works of art that they are. Due to their size and weight, hanging a quilt for a wall display can be a challenge. Attention must be paid to hanging it both attractively and safely to avoid damage to the valuable quilt. It also needs to be taken down periodically for cleaning to preserve it for many years or even generations of enjoyment. A most attractive quilt wall hanger is made of wood, designed to firmly and safely clamp the edge of the quilt for hanging. Some are available in sections to be used for smaller quilt art or joined together for even the largest quilts.

Many take their quilts on the road to be displayed at craft shows and exhibits, presenting a whole new challenge. For this purpose, portable quilt display towers are an ideal solution. Unlike the heavy wooden tradition quilt display stands of old, today's modern stands are designed to be lightweight, quickly assembled, and truly portable. They are made to be fully adjustable in both length and height to display any size quilt beautifully and safely, easily assembled by one person without assistance. Accessories increase the versatility, allowing for displaying quilts with or without sleeves.

Economical portable quilt displays have other uses besides displaying quilts at shows and exhibits. Because they are so lightweight and easily assembled, they make ideal dividers or backdrops when used with standard drapery. They are an excellent addition for business or craft shows to separate the booths between vendors in an attractive way. They can be used to excellent purpose by displaying a custom designed banner for highly visible advertising.

Quilts are more than bedding and deserve to be displayed with the style they deserve. Whether hung from the wall or taken on the road, quilts should be enjoyed and appreciated for the magnificent art form that they represent.
