    you could hang them on the wall infront of your sewing table....will allow for storage close toyou but it won't take up space on your table.

    If they were mine I would sort all of my bagged up UFO projects and put them in the wire so when I was in the mood to pull one out....they would just be in my line of sight.

    I like this idea. Great place to store items that are put together already.

    I have several sets of these for fabric and yarn storage. May I suggest using cable ties to make sure that it stays together. Fabric can weigh alot and I had the set I put into a closet collapse after I had neatly folded and stored all my fabric. I had to pull all the fabric out and put it back together. The cable ties really work!
