Most items for quilt shows will require a hanging sleeve. See the directions below to make a nice permanent sleeve with optional bound buttonhole. Or, see tips on making a temporary sleeve that can be pinned on.
HangingSleeve bound buttonhole.pdfCut the sleeve a bit deeper if it's going to be pinned on, because it may not be possible to place the pins as close to the edges as stitching would be. We want the sleeve to fit loosely around the hanging pipe, so don't want it too snug. Follow the sleeve directions for permananet sleeve, but cut the sleeves about 11" tall (instead of 9").
