Suzanne's Tip of the Week - Storing Quilts

Suzanne's Tips

When storing quilts keep away from bright light and dusty areas. While quilts folded in a cupboard are charming, make sure that the quilt is not touching raw wood or wood with an oily polish. Wood sealed with polyurethane paint is fine. If quilts are stored folded, refold them differently from time to time to avoid wear on the folded edge. Acid free tissue paper is nice to use between the folds to cushion the area and prevent a crease.

Avoid storing quilts in plastic bags and plastic boxes, which might cause yellowing. Your quilt needs to breathe. Cotton pillowcases are a great replacement. Acid free tissue paper and boxes are super too!

Quilts can be stored flat stacked up on beds or raised platforms. Cardboard tubes from decorator fabrics or rugs are great for rolling up a quilt for storage and will prevent creases. Make sure your cover the cardboard tube with some muslin before rolling your quilt. The acid in the cardboard is not good for the fabric.

Happy Quilting,

Suzanne
