    I found some "collapsible" non-woven containers at the Dollar Tree. They are only a $1 and hold a lot of folded fabric, sewing notions, etc. I use mine for fabric. Lines up neatly and easy to view the patterns and colors. You will find them in the regular aisles not with the plastic baskets, etc. They are folded flat when you buy them. Then you put them together and "viola" cheap easy storage. Our store has several different colors so you can hopefully find something that goes with your decor. Hope some of you will find this helpful. I'm always excited to read you suggestion. I love this board. I could do a lot more quilting if I didn't spend so much time here. HEE HEE. Happy Quilting and God Bless
