I have not made a hanging quilt pocket (or whatever you call it). I have a
wall hanging I want to hang and I was just going to make something and hand
stitch it. Is there any special way to make these or should I just guess?

Hiya Jan

Do you have the Fons and Porter Quilter's Complete Guide? There is a
section in that on how to make a hanging sleeve. Otherwise you can just
make a tube about 2" less wide than your wallhanging and stitch it to the
back of the quilt. That's the easy way - I can make it sound a lot more
complicated if you like!

heres the google result page with a whole mess of links on making a
quilt sleeve.
http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=quilt+sleeve&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8

at the houston show yesterday the really big/long quilts had to have
two sleeves, one in usual place, one about a foot down from the top.
they'd use the lower one and fold the excess over the back of the rod
inside the sleeve to hang it so it wasnt puddling on the floor.
hope this helps,

Now that I know it is called a sleeve, I am on my way!
