It makes it easier to take down for washing when it gets dusty, or gets dingy from people who smoke in the house.

(they were hanging pictures). its kind of a cool idea and it doesn't harm your walls at all. you could buy adhesive hooks that stick on the wall. their made so that when your ready to remove the hook its not supposed to damage the wall.

It's a wooden frame that you fold and then drape the quilt over. It won't be "on" the wall, but you can put the rack up against the wall. Racks are not as hard on the stitching and fabric of quilts, especially heavy ones as any kind of hanging is. The best way to display a quilt is to buy or make a quilt rack.

A wooden dowel slips through the sleeve. The sleeve prevents strain on the fibers of the quilt. Then place 2 quick release hooks, removable without damaging wall. Place dowel ends on hooks.
