I understand wanting to have some type of carrier to put a quilt in. Not sure I would take a king size quilt to someone's home to do hand work unless they have a very large living room.
I also like the idea of making a bag. |

So, what do others use to keep the quilt in for transport? and while you are sitting in someone's home and want to sew binding? Some of the quilts I will be finishing are king size. I could put it in a trash bag but I am looking for suggestions. thanks. |
Could you roll it on a pool noodle? Maybe that's not big enough...

Or maybe a Lamper from Target..kind of like a cross between a hamper and a laundry basket. I use a few in my sewing space.

I totally agree with the "no trash bag". I had a Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt in sections but all the flowers done and lost one of the sections. It really put a hold on getting that quilt finished. Luckily, I do have enough of the yellow material for more centers and more Kona white from the same bolt to replace them but getting the flower part to look right might be fun. I now use white trash bags for recycling and keeping stuff and use black only for trash.

I use the clear bags that king size blankets like vellux comes in from Kohls, with the zipper
