It's just like a kite, 4 triangles in the corners and then two dowels to hold it straight.Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17259817742052187914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31791996.post-41332389270816222442011-07-31T22:47:54.395+08:002011-07-31T22:47:54.395+08:00Absoutely Love It!

Then hang from the top point. Can you picture what I'm saying? Can anyone else describe it better?<br />PamPam L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11651815311609876210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31791996.post-80809074798163938362011-07-31T18:30:17.274+08:002011-07-31T18:30:17.274+08:00Helen, it looks great on the wall, but I know from...Helen, it looks great on the wall, but I know from experience that they hang wonky over time when pinned up on bias. Sell it as a great table topper instead! Also, oh, please...don't pass on the opportunity to have quilting show. DO quilt in the white to give the quilt nice stability. Plus, this is the area where the quilting will show best!

Well, it's...Absolutely love it! Very charming.<br /><br />Well, it's a doll quilt, not a wall hanging, so no hanging? Another option, add large triangles to set the quiltlet on point? But that would increase the size too much? De-construct to set the blocks on point?<br /><br />Looking forward to seeing what you decide.Sharihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18308423156191499365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31791996.post-90956624620751057362011-07-31T13:02:10.177+08:002011-07-31T13:02:10.177+08:00Looks stunning.

Another idea rather than the two sleeves on the sides would be to put a sleeve across the centre, point to point, to hold a flat piece of wood.felicityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18175463051620709590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31791996.post-25186377694274221712011-07-31T12:33:21.622+08:002011-07-31T12:33:21.622+08:00Helen, it's so, so pretty!

Hanging possibility: Two hanging sleeves going down the sides from the top that narrow wood dowels could slip into for stability, then put a small circle loop at the top to use for hanging. Does that make sense? <br /><br />Anyway, LOVE the quilt. Great design and fantastic fabric choices!Terrie Sandelinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15059022710352529519noreply@blogger.com
