These pieces have no hooks, loops, channels, rods, etc. The quilt and batik have simple cotton lining [sewn only around the outside edges]. The fringed rug has no backing at all. It is delicate, 80 to 100 years old.
I want to make sure not to damage the items with pulls, misshape them or puncture them.
Thanks so much for any suggestions, or for guidance to a website or reference book.
What are good ways to hang tapestry or art on fabric: a 3 x 4 foot quilt; a 15x20 inch batik; an antique rug?
They make "Quilt Hangers". I think I bought mine at A.C,Moore. I got it in the unfinished wood section.
It is 2 pieces of wood that clamp down togather at the ends, therfore NOT damaging the fabric at all.
My antique Quilt looks beautiful hanging in the stair well,
Reply:try calling an oriental rugs store and ask them.
