How to invisibly hang a quilt to photograph.

I know I mentioned in my giveaway post that I have been keeping these quilts top secret until they were featured on Moda Bake Shop.  Well...for the most part, that was true.  Ok, so I HAD to share them with a few people so an ulcer wouldn't set in, but I only showed a few people, I promise!  When I showed my friend Lindsay this picture.....




...she had a few questions for me.  I figured if she had questions, others might also.  Here is what she wondered:


Linds: Where did you take the pic?

Val:  I took the pictures outside of my parent's shed.  We actually call it the Taj MaShed because my Dad has spent month$ and month$ and month$ building it.  I think it even has hard wood floors inside!

 




Linds: How did you suspend them?

Val:  I used these little clips that I had in our basement that we have hanging from a thick wire to holds the kid's art work.  Now, the sad part about this is, neither my husband nor I can remember where we got these clips.  I think I probably got them at Lowe's, but I can't promise you that. 



 



I used fishing wire to looping it over the top of the door slide.


Since I couldn't remember where I got those little clippies, I thought I'd test out the black clips (pictured above) that you can buy at any office supply store.  I tested it out and it does work just fine!!!




Linds:  Did it take forever to set up!?

Val:  It took me about 15-20 minutes and I was able to set it up without any help.  It was really pretty easy!




I hope this helps if you're looking for a fun way to hang your quilt to photograph.
