We recently added a new virtual section called: Sewing Rooms - Ideas & Inspirations

I want to add as many idea there as I can so here's my first tip. :) I want to preface this by saying this is NOT my idea, I'm just passing a tip along that was given to me and I think work WONDERFULLY! :)

Items Needed:

2 - Metal Closet Rod Hangers (From your local hardware store)
1 - A 5 foot section of 1inch PVC pipe (From you LHS)
4 - Screws to mount your hangers if they aren't included
with your closet rod hangers.

Measure the length of your bolt - add 1 inch to that measurement. Then hang your closet rod hangers that width apart. Put your PVC pipe through your bolt of batting and hang.

VIOLA your done! Batting is out of the way, and easily rolled off the bolt when you need it. This project cost me roughly $12.00. :)

P.S. Buying batting by the bolt if very economical if you wait for Joann's to have a 40% or 50% off sale and have it shipped to your home.
