This DIY Quilt Rack is Simple to Construct
Customize the Size to Fit Your Space!
Are you looking for a quilt rack that you can make yourself? This rack is made from PVC pipe and is simple to construct.
Plus, it’s easy to alter the design to fit your space. Adjust the height, width and even the number of rails.
You can also use this rack for other things. It will be great in the sewing room for organizing and storing pieces of a quilt in process. Or make a drying rack for the laundry room.
Just about anyone who’s handy can put this together. The process involves cutting pipe to size (which can often be done for you at Lowes and Home Depot), and then gluing the pieces together.

The rack can even be painted. That’s best done before the cut pieces are assembled. You’ll find instructions for both spray painting and painting the pipe by hand here at WikiHow.
