How do you store your quilts?

![Question](/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Not that I have many quilts that need storage yet (mine area being used all the time
), but I am wondering how you store your quilts from season to season or for any other reason.
I happen to come across an idea on the internet that uses a swimming noddle to roll the quilts around. What are your thoughts about that idea?
Thanks for your responses.

Put them away??How do you have quilts to put up?? It seems I can't make them fast enough for the people that want one!! I am actually hoping I can keep the one I am making right now..I have a Walmart quilt on my bed!! (sham

The noodle thing is a good idea. Just remember to cover the noodle so the quilts don't come in contact with the noodle. They may get discolored if they touch over a long time. I have some of mine layered on my guest room bed with a bedspread on top of them to keep dust and light off them. I change them out every once in awhile so I can enjoy them. Others I keep on cardboard tubes.
I visit the local upholstery shops and ask them for their empty fabric tubes. I use a sheet rolled onto the tube a few rolls and then lay the quilt on the remaining sheet and roll the two up together. The sheet rolls around the quilt on the outside a few times and is totaly protected by the sheet. I slide them under the bed to store.
peace
