I haven't done this yet on a big wall quilt yet, but I"m thinking about it...
I usually put a hanging sleeve on the back of my wall quilts. And I Was thinking of putting a metal rod in a sleeve and using magnets on the wall.

I did a similar thing on a couple of small letter paper sized quilts. I put a metal thumbtack in the wall. and stuck my quilts to them with a magnet buried inside my quilt. I made these little quilts to go on the fridge so I quilted a little magnet into the quilt. I put the magnet in before I quilted the layers. I stitched around the magnet to hold it and had to remember not to quilt over it and break my needle. Anyway I just put the quilts on the thumbtacks to hold them up because I didn't like them on my fridge. A nail didn't have enough surface area, but a thumbtack was perfect and it doesn't leave a noticeable hole either.
