I then use boxes approximately the size of the large-size priority mail box, and store 3-5 kits in each box.
I have most pieces cut and hold off on the border fabric, too. Once I get the main part of the quilt I may want to change the width of the borders.
I bought fabric for backings in the LQS finish the bolt sale.
Have 9 flimsies sewn and 16 kits in zip lock bags!
