    So it looks like the cubes are on point. I think I would find the fabric storage bins that would fit the cubes. You could put your folded fabric in the storage bin and put it in the cube. It will be at a 45 degree angle but it wouldn't matter to the fabric.

    Fat quarter storage, especially if the fat quarters are rolled.

    if the measurements allow set this on its side and make a base for a cutting table or ironing station or sewing table? just use a couple of file cabinets and a piece of sturdy plywood for the top. seal the wood with a good primer and use a sprayer (makes the job easier) does this make sense?

    Yarn or rolls of stabilizer. You might roll fq and small pieces of fabric instead of folding.

    Very cool....a coat of paint and voila....perfect for rolls of fabric, batting, or even towels. I don't store my towels flat I roll them...looks great on a shelf.

    My first thought was to use it to store batting and batting remnants in. :c)

    That would make a fantastic storage for yarn or putting 1 color in each opening. Easy access and looks like it would hold a lot.

    Anything tube shaped. Rolled up pantographs-I'd like one like it. Rolls of stabilizer. Batting

    I need storage for panto's and was thinking of something like this. You've started me thinking. Thanks.

    A nice coat of paint, and then put in things you want to see, or out of the way, or,,,,, your choice!
