    Looking for a nice way to hang a bunch of quilts

    I recently moved from a house with a room dedicated to my backpacking gear into an apartment with very little storage (by choice). I have no closets to use because they are busy with everyday clothes and there is zero floor space. Does anyone have suggestions for hanging them in my bedroom? My wife has given me the OK to do this but I don't want it to look crappy. The ceilings are 11 foot and I would rather hang them as high as possible and as close to the wall as possible.
    I have 12 quilts that I need to store. I don't need them to be super easy to get at because they don't get used everyday and the 0F stuff will never be used in the summer. Maybe a rack of some sort.... any suggestions?

    I hung up a closet rod and have mine hanging from the hangers with clips along with my down jackets and rain gear.

    I certainly appreciate function over form but remember this is going in my wife’s bedroom. Anything more......... elegant?

    Maybe similar to what they have at a place like REI? Does anyone know where I could find something like that?

    If you got the square footage, would an Ikea wardrobe work? I dunno if you could loosely store 12 quilts in one though.

    I bought some of these hangers that I plan on doing something similar with:

    I also picked up some of these command hooks in case I decide to just hang them in their storage bags:

    You could bump the aesthetics in this scenario with some custom designed / colored storage bags... but that would be some extra $$ and possibly work.

    Vacuum clothing bags, just slightly compressed and stored under the bed.

    I know I’m being difficult but unfortunately I have zero floor space so any type of armoire would not work.
