    Question looking for inexpensive storage bags...

    I'm looking for inexpensive durable canvas bags with clear tops to store my quilts. I saw a set of two - measuring
    21" X 26" X 10" for $17.99. Is this a good price? oh... S&H is $7.00.

    Cotton pillowcases work well. I dont think its a god idea to use anything with plastic

    I don't like plastic, either, so I just make large pillow cover type things with zippers in the. Works for me!

    You could buy canvas drop cloths from Lowe's or Home Depot and make some. The canvas is good quality and cheaper than by the yard. I'm sure you could come up with a simple pattern, not sure what you could use for a clear top but maybe you could write on the bag or sew a sample on each bag somehow.

    Ikea has different sized storage holders with zippers. Not clear but all material.
