Calling my crafty friends....

...do any of you know anything about quilt hangers, are they better than just using a rod and holders or worse, I have this tapestry, see, that I've been working on for over ten years (on and off) and it's finally been finished and ready to hang and now I'm exploring options on how to get it on my wall with the least possible damage or drama. Pictures when it's up, promise!

Museum person here... this technique above or you can also attach wide velcro (again with a loose easily removable stitch) to the back all the way across the top, and then attach the other side of the velcro to a piece of wood (or whatever) which will be attached to the wall. Depending on the velcro or the piece you are hanging you may want to put a piece of cotton or linen between it and the tapestry.

The main thing is for the tapestry to hang from contact points all the way across, and for whatever method you use to attach either a sleeve or velcro to the tapestry to be 100% reversible.

I can provide futher links, or instructions if you want.
