I am about easy and inexpensive. I tie fabric bundles along with patterns with salvage strips and stack on a shelf. Once blocks are cut, I lay them out on pieces of fabric backed vinyl tablecloth cut to accommodate the size of the unfinished block. This works especially well for sampler blocks and applique. For chain piecing I place cut pieces in shallow plastic food containers. Either way you can place them near your machine when you are ready to sew. Can even use them as leaders/enders Bonnie Hunter style.
