Whinnytoo how clever!! I live in a big old farmhouse (stone foundation in someplaces). Anyway mice find ways to get in and my sewing room is no cats allowed. The little buggers got into the closet in my sewing room and had a field day with a bolt of warm and natural I had stored in there :shock: Some little varment has a nice warm nest somewhere. They left the prepackaged stuff alone. Maybe they don't like plastic and will only go through it when after food.

I store left over pieces in a large bag with a zipper that bedding came in.

My bolt stands in a corner.

I honestly don't remember.
I also piece batting, I will pin a sticky note to it with the size, so I don't have to keep measureing everytime I need a piece. I check my notes and if nothing is large enough I cut a new piece. works great for baby quilts.
