I have my already "sandwiched" UFO's on my son's bed. They used to be on the treadmill in the family room (where I sew) They may end up back here again. That treadmill makes a great place to store the "to be quilted" projects! It even adds color to the room! The almost completed tops are folded and stored in a clear rubbermaid tub (66 qt or larger size) some of them have a ziploc bag with them with the fabrics to finish the tops. My blocks are in ziploc bags in a second UFO Tub. Sad that I have 2 tubs. I need to get to work!!!

IMy plan is to finish them all, but first i need to be able to find them with their attendant pieces. I do work on them, there are not that many. I had pieces, and fabric and other stuff piled on every flat surface....and walking was a hazard :lol: The strips, I am still thinking on that one :wink:

Yea, Ruth. Nothing like getting all tangled up in pieces that are "piled" up on the floor. Last week I got hung up in a bunch of binding that had been cut the wrong width. It was waiting to be wrapped around a piece of cardboard to be used in another project. Yikes. I did catch myself before I hit the floor. We quilters can be experts in making piles. :lol:

I also like using the 12 x 12 plastic containers you use for scrapbooking.. they are also fairly flat, (hmm about a 3 inch height to them) they are see through and keep your projects flat.

As for the strips - how about putting them on some hangers? They won't get too wrinkled up that way. |
I am trying to finish what I have started before I start another one. I have the train quilt in the frame still! Plus a baby quilt that I am machine quilting. And like three others started. So I want to finish these before I start another.
