Not much quilty news from me lately. I have pulled out my red and white SBS swap quilt again, and have quilted about three threads over the last week, but that's all.
I have finally gotten a rack to hang some of my quilts on!! Back in September I saw this post on May Kristin's blog. On Tuesday I had a dentist appointment, and since I had some of the day off, my Mum and I went to IKEA and picked up this (towel) rack:

(Ok, they were on sale, so I got two, but have only assembled one). So now, rather than having my quilts folded up in a closet they can hang on display in the living room - happy me!
Have a wonderful and creative weekend!

The quilt rack is great, I like how you can see parts of all the quilts. You have such lovely quilts, you don't want to hide them.
I just looked at Ikea's online catalog and couldn't find anything that looks like your towel rack. Do you know what the "name" of it is? I'd love to find one!
They look great sweetie, much better than folded up in the cupboard!!
Big hugs xxx
If that's the rack I'm thinking of, please be careful. I think the finish is some kind of oil rub and you should protect your beautiful quilts. I covered each rung with a piece of canvas because it left a faint brown mark on some towels that I hung on it. I love your blog.
This is great.
It's so much more fun to see our quilts hanging on racks than unseen while they are in drawers. I have a rack right here in the family room plus the two quilt ladders and I enjoy seeing the quilts displayed.
Beautiful, indeed ! Will have to pay a visit to that "Swedish Uncle", one of these days... ;>)

Denne var smart. Skal ta ein tur innom IKEA neste gang eg er forbi. Takk for tipset. Helsing Jofrid.
Å så lurt! Takk for ideen :) Quiltene dine er nydelige der de henger. God påske!
Klem.
This is funny. Quilters in The Netherlands are also talking about the very handy towel rack from Ikea !
Det var smart! Fint å få vist frem litt av de flotte teppene dine - det er jo for galt å gjemme bort!
Jeg var på Ikea i går, og så faktisk slike stativ! Men jeg var mest opptatt av å få tak i SKAP til mine stoffer, så her blir stoffene flyttet inn i Billy-skap med glassdører ila helgen :-)
God Påske!
Whatever would we do without Ikea!
I think the towel rack is the perfect way to display your beautiful quilts.

Oh man, so now I need to go to Ikea too!!!!
Your quilts look great on the rack!
I think it is clever, but the best of all...it's cheap!!
