    Here are some pictures of the wheeled batting rack. I do keep extra rolls under my quilting frame (its a Gammill with a metal bar for batting) However, it is so convenient for me to pull from the rack behind my cutting table, measure and slice it off.

    Mine leans in a corner behind the door in my sewing room. Out of the way but easy to get to.

    Great idea, I have something similar that hangs from rafters.

    I have limited space so decided to attach mine to my rafters above the cutting table. This way when I do need it I can just pull it down, measure the length I need and cut. I have a very long metal ruler nearby that I clamp to either side of the cutting table to keep it straight. My cutting table is 4' x 8' so can't cut in one swoop of the rotary cutter. Here's a pic of my setup. I'm showing the bracket I'm using and how I keep my clamps nearby. And yes, they came from my workshop out back. The metal ruler is from my workshop too. Its taller than me.

    When my sister and I go in together on a box of Warm and Natural, she lets me keep the box for my half. I have the box under the sewing table. The cats dent it a bit because they like to sit on it, but it keeps it from getting dusty.
