I do have a 2' x 2' quilted piece of art in my BR. I'm getting kind of bored with it though. It's been there a few years. Time for a change. Realistically though, I've got quite a few quilts to make before I make another for the BR.

Think honor system. Hopefully no one takes what is not theirs.

How about a room with a view. (something like a window frame with critters (birds, cats, butterflies) and a view of distant hills, or flowers. (I can see vineyards if Italian restaurant, parrots if Mexican, etc.)

As long as it's in a frame it wouldn;t be too easy to conceal unless it was small enough to fit in a purse. I'm thinking maybe a 12 x 12 or 16 x 16 size.

While the wooden barn quilt block certainly has merit, it lacks the warmth of a traditional quilt. Given the previously mentioned concerns of theft and lack of cleanliness, I'd just study the bathrooms in question. Look at the floor & wall tile colors and patterns. No tiles? - what other decorations are already in place, flowers, brass knob cabinets, wooden cut-outs of children, . . . ? Remember, one of the objectives is to make the bathroom look good, so take photos, then study the pictures. It'll come to you.

I have had a wall hanging in my (large) bathroom for nearly 10 years now and other than some fading it still looks good. Imagine the double stick tape is the same

I wouldn't have a problem displaying a quilt in my bathroom at home, but it would be something that would have to be able to go through the washing machine on a somewhat regular basis. I love the looks of buildings where quilts are displayed on the walls, but I personally wouldn't buy a quilt that's even been displayed in a restaurant. After all my years of working in a restaurant and seeing the accumulation of dust and dirt attracted by the grease, I wouldn't want to expose something that took that much work to the filthy air. I would want the works of art framed to protect them whether it's in the restaurant bathroom or out in the eating areas.

I use a quilt as a shower curtain in my guest bathroom with a plastic liner. Visitors are amazed. However, I have reservations about using even a small wallhanging in a public restroom.

My old LQS (I've moved) had quilts in their restrooms, but those are used by quilters. I don't know about hanging one in a restaurant.

I don't have any in the bathroom but must admit that I love going to the quilt store in Freeport, ME and using their bathrooms. They change out the quilts alot and they are beautiful.
