Yes .... they do. What I have done here is .... took one of those Pizza Boxes ..... padded just the top lid portion, covered it in a Ivory colored piece of flannel I had ..... and use it to lay out pieces I am making a block with and get a good idea how the block is going to look (especially when making different blocks each time) .... and like you said, these blocks lay flat in the box also, until ready to be sewn together. Also ... the padded box can lay right near where you are sewing .... so you don't have leave your machine and use a display board in another area.
