A really good way to store quilts is to lay them flat on an unused bed. Think I learned this at a quilt show in Roswell, Ga. The quilts were stacked on top of each other. If you are concerned about dust, place a cotton sheet over the quilt stack.

Currently, mine are stacked on the extra bed or displayed on a quilt rack.
However, if I could afford one of these...

Think they're beautiful!
And no, I don't work for these people or even know them.

DonnaPBradshaw: Great idea, especially the coordinating fabric bag. If you don't have enough to make an entire bag, sew a row of fabric onto the plain sleeve at the "view end" or simply make a tag with a piece of fabric that indicates the quilt colors inside the bag.

I had a friend who bought a new metal ladder, took off all the stickers they come with, spray painted it to match the room, and used it for her quilts. Looked great.
