Go to your local supermarket and ask the fish department to save those long, flat containers they get filets in. You will have to wash them really good with a lot of soapy water, but they will be free and will fit under the bed with no problem at all. As a matter of fact you can even stack them a couple high under there.
BY THE WAY EVERYONE, I got the book "Country Christmas Quilting" yesterday through Amazon.com. I paid $1.85 plus shipping which is a steal because there is NOT ONE THING in this book that I don't like. Also, it was so neat to see Sandra Hatch right on the first page in her beautiful Holly Jacket.
Way to go girl!!!!!
