I had a friend's hubby make a quilt box. It is made of Oak, but can be whatever wood you prefer. It had glass on the sides and top. It holds many quilts and I have had many compliments on it. I love it!

Do you have a dining room hutch, curio cabinet, or hutch? I think quilts folded on shelves behind glass look so charming year-round.

You could do this and put them in a large Umbrella type basket in the corners of your rooms or like tall wicker hampers.

If you have to put them away from the sunny CA sun, you could fold them in half and put them under your mattress. Also, you can use a sheet in a suitcase and fold the quilts in the suitcases (or trunks). I would not let them touch the wood. Good luck

I store mine on my guest room bed one on top of each other and change them monthly to a diff . design. I store about 10 that way. when company come i place them in the closet exceot the one i leave on the bed according to season, ie christmas, easter etc. If i am not going to use the room for awhile. I will spread a king sheet over to keep the dust off. cmaras1234

I do the same as CMARAS. It works and nothing to buy or store for later.

Quilters...you're such a resourceful bunch! There are so many great ideas here. Thanks, so much! I don't know how I'm going to store them yet. My cat would just love it if I stacked them on the guest bed...LOL...So comfy and cozy. But, he also sheds like crazy, so I'd always be washing them. Great idea though, if you don't have critters. I like the idea of putting them behind glass, so that you could see them, but they'd stay clean. I also like the idea of a corner shelf unit because it doesn't take up as much wall space, which is very limited at my house. Rolling them up and stacking them is good too.

I would love to have a ladder against the wall to hang quilts on -- but I think my cats would run up the quilts and sleep on them!

I saw this and had two built; one on each side of my French Doors. Takes up very little space and one holds 9 quilts. Actually, one could hold 12 quilts easily if you just put the rods closer. Cheap and easy to make. I used wooden closet rods from Lowes and 6 inch pine boards. (Tried wider boards but they were too deep. Used a keyhole saw-the tool for drilling out holes for door knobs- which fits the dowel rods perfectly.) I also have a small cot with multiple quilts layered up on it, and an assortment of quilted pillows on top. I love my racks!

This also keeps them fresh smelling especially when you change them from season to season or even on a monthly basis.
