17 Stunning Quilted Wall Hanging Patterns You Must Try

If you asked people where they think a quilt should go, most would say, “On a bed,” or maybe, “In a grandma’s house.”

Most folks don’t think about quilts being anywhere except on a bed to keep you warm during those cold winter months.

But have you considered all the other places you can find quilts or quilted items?

Today, fellow quilters, I’m sharing another excellent way to show off your quilting creativity — without having to make a massive, king-sized quilt.

The perfect way to “show off” your craft is with a wall quilt!

What Is a Wall Quilt?

Sounds kind of silly, right? Why would I need a quilt on my wall? 

Well, wall quilts aren’t meant to keep your walls warm.

Instead, they are works of art and expressions of your creativity. 

You can create multiple mini quilts to display all over your home or give as unique gifts for friends and family.

Think about it, do you have a few blocks you would LOVE to make but don’t want to make an entire quilt around them?

Or maybe you’ve searched for that perfect home decor item for above your mantle but can’t seem to find something that is totally “you.”

With a wall quilt, you can create exactly the piece you want while expanding your quilting skills. If you search online, there are roughly a gazillion wall quilt patterns available. 

I’ve curated 17 wall-hanging quilt patterns that you are sure to love and can’t wait to try. I know I definitely do.
