What a great find. You did good!! I have one of those wooden clothes racks that folds up flat. It is used to dry clothes on. I use it for strips of fabric when I strip piece, or to hold the strips ina jelly roll after I open it. You can spread them out and get a better look at what you have. They are very handy.

Congratulations! I too use an antique drying rack for my fabric and strips when making a quilt. It folds somewhat flat and can be stored. I really like the size of yours-what a good find!

That is a great find. I love the idea of using it for Bargello strips!

Way to go!! It's great that you will have several uses for it. When you're not using it for quilting you could put it in your laundry room and drape delicates or shirts on it to dry! What a great bargain you got!
