    Over the years we've bought specialty dishes for holidays that we store in the attic when not in use. The Boxes & cardboard inserts are getting pretty ragged. Just found this great quilted storage solution that's going to the top of my to-do list!
    Here's the link for the free pattern

    My grandma used something similar and she also put fabric in between the pieces of dishware.

    I made these to hosue our dishes in the motorhome during storage and travel... they are easy to make up.....
    I used pinked edged felt for between the plates....
    I have seen ppl use coffee filters between the plates...but I liked a bit more cushion..
