I have heard that you shouldn't store them in a cedar chest. Over time the cedar will cause color damage.

I have my quilts in various places. One small one is on a wall. Will be making more for other walls later on. The bed quilts that aren't in use are in a barrister's bookcase in my living room. I even put my finished tops with the backing rolled in them in that bookcase. It is colorful and attractive. I put my FW on top of the bookcase. Anyone who enters my home should know right away i am a quilter.!
Wanted to buy a really nice barrister bookcase at an estate sale but instead of holding it for me they sold it to a dealer. Bummer, that. So I did what I could afford: ordered online from Office Depot.

I have some folded and stored on bookshelves..Some are hanging on walls and some on beds...I keep them out so they can be seen and used..I also keep throw quilts on a rack so when its cold we can cover up while watching tv or reading...

I have an older wardrobe in the sewing room and I have been hanging the wall type ones in there, the Christams one is in with the Christmas decorations and the last one is under our bed in an open plastic tote.

I can't give them away because the first one was my FIRST one, the second a Christmas quilt for me and the third is the tumbling blocks and want to use it as a summer quilt on our bed. Just give me a few suggestions, please.
Thanks, Rita

I quilt just for fun and have all I need. Now I'm concentrating on making quilts for kids. There are organizations who will see that they reach hospitalized children who are really love getting a beautiful 'blanky' they can take home with them. It doesn't have to be for kids, even a teenager will appreciate the kindness of being given their own quilt. My grandson sure used his alot!
