Sew a quilted storage bag to keep your quilts, winter clothes, and your best fabrics organized all year long. You could also keep pillows, coats, and stuffed animals inside!
My big storage totes are sewn from high quality quilting cotton fabric, sturdy foam stabilizer, and wide handbag zippers (YKK size 4.5 – the most economical choice is zippers by the yard).
Use basting spray to adhere an exterior fabric piece to a piece of foam stabilizer of the same size. Then repeat to spray baste the lining fabric to the other side.
Quilt the layers together as you prefer. I like to use my walking foot and sew straight or curvy lines several inches apart, starting in the center and working my way out.
