    Diy Quilt-Hooks

    Hi!
    I have not been as active here on HF as I use to be. I am about to start my own small company, so I have been busy for a while.

    I saw that our friend Dutch have developed a new product called "Quilt Hook". I Can not understand where he gets his bright ideas from but i just know they're excellent.

    I've had some spare time between projects, and then it hit me why not try making your own quilt-hooks.

    This was a fun project and they work great.

    What you need are:

    cutting pliers,
    small file,
    lighter
    four mitten hooks.

    Good luck with your own project, whatever it may be.

    Very clever. The pics really make it understandable.

    What I've been doing is sewing the center of an 8" section of gutted paracord where you would normally sew on the quilt hook onto the hammock. Then I just tie a bow around the UQ bungee to capture it.
