Fold them in 1/2, and make several in a pattern. These can really change your walls, best wishes, J.
Vickie, make sure you take pics of your finished projects. These are all gems, so take care of them.
I guess it depends on how many and how big they are. I love quilts and have several. An old ladder placed on a wall is a wonderful place to hang and display blankets/quilts.
Pinterest has a ton of ideas, I really like the idea featured here a couple of different ways using ladder rungs:

build or buy a quilt stand
Another ideal is take pictures and put them in a frame and hang them in one area of your home for viewing.
I don't know what size you have, but some use theirs for table cloths and curtains. Just tryin' to help. Do you have quilts stands? The Amish have their ways, but some don't have phones or electric. It would be going in their area.
You are sincerely welcome. Even if you put clashing colors of diff. quilts on the same wall, this would add lots of conversation to your friends, and company. Just lay them out, and see which one would look diff., as you would hang them up. You can hang them up on a latter, or even a roller that you can get at a lumber yard. This would add lots of color, and harmony to your rooms. One idea, is to have a darker background and then make a red area, and print or sew letters on it, so it will be very fruitful as others look at it. Think of a powerful thought, and make your letters, and even use felt for the material will stick to it. Lots of ideas to think about, ok? We can chat anytime, Best wishes, J.
