My studio is fairly small - there is not a lot of storage space and not much wall space to display quilts. I had recently seen some great Quilt Ladders online and asked my very handy Dad to make me one. Dad is a retired tiler and very handy with carpentry, bricklaying and many other trades. Two weeks after my request, my quilt ladder is home and he has done a fabulous job.

With 10' ceilings, I was able to have a 9' ladder built - the ladder is about 20" wide and the rungs are spaced about 17" apart placed on an angle to accommodate the quilts.
I spent this Sunday morning selecting a range of quilts and quilt tops to display - I managed to take a picture of the now tidy section of my room. It will be great to be able to easily change the quilts on display.
Thanks Dad for a great job - I might see if I need any more quilt ladders for elsewhere in the house.
What a great addition to your quilting space. You are very lucky to have a Dad who is willing and able to do such things. Thanks for sharing on your blog.
