Video 15: Quilt Hanging Sleeve

Wow … what a busy week! I had to drive to Florida to help Mom and Dad last week and this week we’re getting ready for the Cabarrus Show on Friday and Saturday.

But we did have time to film our next video …

How to put a sleeve on the back of your quilt so you can hang it!

I know it’s a long title but Marc insisted on shortening it up: “Quilt Hanging Sleeve”

Normally I use a 10″ width of quilt size for my sleeve, unless its a really small quilt or a wall hanging then you can go with a 6″ sleeve. It all depends on how big the hanging rod is.

Nothing magical here, just top stitch the sides and sew the sleeve (raw edges) to the top of the quilt, then hand stitch the bottom part just like you would your binding. I sew the binding and the sleeve at the same time. If you’re having problems with your binding, check out my “dreaded binding” video.

Viewing Videos

If anyone is having difficulties viewing any of the videos on our site, try going directly to our YouTube channel. Or, you can change the resolution of the video by clicking on the number (360p, 480p or 720p) in the lower left corner of a video.

The lower the number (lines of resolution) the lower the quality. The lower quality video will stream quicker, since the file size is smaller.

Confused? No worries … contact me and I’ll help you out!
