Default Keeping blocks for WIPs

This is probably something everyone here knows but it was new to me. I often hang my quilt tops over hangers but I was at my sister's and she was showing me her BOMs so far. She uses pants hangers from department stores to keep them. You know the ones with the clips/clamps on them? Works like a charm. Everything stays flatly pressed.

I came home and gathered up four different sets of blocks from block exchanges I did on line and hung them that way. I also had fabric to go with some of them and I hung that on regular hangers beside them so that I didn't inadvertently use it for something else.

I hope someone else can use this hint. It is much better than the PIGS I had before.

Of course, I know I am fortunate to have a sort of empty closet in a spare bedroom to do this with.
