I have given all my quilts as gifts. I found some boxes but that gets expensive so my new way is to just wrap them in a pretty ribbon. Does anybody have any other ideas?

I like your idea. They look very pretty. I've always made a pillow case from the same or co-ordinating fabric to use as a gift or storage bag.

I like your idea too. More and more when I wrap presents, I like to use tissue paper, white or colored, usually two layers, with some curly ribbon. I don't like all the waste that goes along with regular gift wrap. We can't recycle it here. Unfortunately, I can only find those small sheets (trifolded) of tissue. I like the way the present kind of peeks thru the opaque tissue wrap.
