This step by step tutorial of how to build a homemade blanket ladder quilt stand is a simple DIY project that not only organizes your favorite quilts but showcases their beauty. Do you have some precious quilts that you or someone you loved has made ? Most of us probably do and know how hard it is to put away our hard earned quilts away in a closet to be unseen. Especially during the cold months, we want them close at hand in case we get cold.

Granted, most of us will probably keep folding them and putting them away in this manner because we dislike the cluttered look of blankets and quilts draped over the couch. If your house is like mine, each one of our dogs take a quilt left on a couch as a sign that it was left there for them. A slight dusting of dog hair can be avoided by placing your quilt upon a quilt ladder rack.

Just like a folded ladder, you can make this stand with just a few pieces of wood, some screws, and a few other odds and ends. It’s just a great addition to any room where you want to hang up your quilts and blankets and have them on hand when you need them, especially on those cooler nights.
