I have had an enjoyable day in my sewing room making these 2 hangings. Do you have a better / favouraite way to turn your embroideries into wall hangings??? Ta, Lyn. xx

These are so nicely made and framed. It depends on how big the wall hanging is and how much it weighs. Some of the little light weight ones you can use the Command brand 3M Damage-Free Hanging strips. Little loops or tabs or a pocket sewn across the top for a rod to go through and there are some fancy holders available at some of the quilt shops. I hung a crochet afghan for my mom that she made of wool yarn and it was very heavy so sewn in the band across the top and bottom. Had to put a dowel rod in the bottom to keep it from curling.

Very nice wall hangings. I did a wall hanging with the Lords Prayer on it. It was done in 5x7 blocks. I frame each block in dark blue binding then used a 2" ribbon and attached to top an bottom of each block. At the tip I put a ring. This made a hanging picture that my SIL put up in the church office of his church that he pastors.

These are lovely, I made some like this size and little longer and at top bottom like when making easy rod curtains. I put a piece of mini blinds in to keep hanging flat. I hate to throw things away if I can get another use.

I have actually bought stretched canvas for painting pictures and stretch my work over that. After attaching it then I find a nice frame to put it in. Susan
