Door Hanger Sending A Quaint Message To All Who Visit
Door Hanger Now We Know Who The Quilter Of The Family Is
Nobody can resist reading a message on a door hanger because everyone wants to know who’s behind the door! It would give a quilter great satisfaction to hang their own message out there for all who visit. Besides it looks very quaint.
The next problem is that everyone wants to see inside but thats a story for another day. The door hanger message could say “Quilters Only”. This message is as simple as “Quilter At Work” .
Well honestly…besides shopping for fabric, what else would a quilter be busy with ?!!
Make a door hanger and use this message, or make one up. This could get quite fun.
Here are a few I could think of. Add your own…
