quilt storage ideas
#5
That's what I do. ^^^^^^^^
I hang them on a pant hanger, cover them with a clear kitchen trash bag (cut a small hole). I make a descriptions of the quilt in the 'package', written on a bookmark blank, punch a 1/2" hole and put that over the hook and hang them. Everything is there nice and safe, away from critters (or all shapes or sizes or species).
This is also how I store my finished tops that needed to be quilted. Since they are usually thinner than the quilts, I use the hanger that holds several pairs of slacks. Then the tag lists every item that is stored in that hanger. Works well for me.

If you get any of these bags don't get the large large ones because after you pack them if they are to long you don't have a place to put them. That is a mistake I made.

I lay a sheet in my old suitcase, lay them in with breathing room, and slide the closed suitcase under the bed. I do wrap the sheet around the quilts. When house cleaning comes around, I air them out, refold in a different way, and tuck them back in. I wish I had enough wall space to display them all.
