    Default Saw great idea to store FQ's

    A friend went to the local goodwill and bought one of those disk storage units, the kind that turn. Hers is about 4 feet tall. She painted it to match her sewing room put some cute decals on it, and has all of her FQ's folded in it. You can see each one and the little storage unit only takes up a few inches of floor space. Thought it was worth mentioning here.

    It is a great id. The CD holders are the right size, I have been looking and haven't been able to find any used and the new ones are expensive. I was looking at Idea and they were more than the bookcases I got.

    Love this idea!! And it's just in time - I'm working on getting my new sewing room set up and was trying to figure out how to store fat quarters. I think I know how I'm going to do it now!! Thanks!

    I love this idea. I will look for one as soon as I can. It will free up some of my drawer space.
