How do you store your WIPs and other projects that you have kitted up?
I store my WIP's in large ziploc bags. I keep the floss, pattern and material in the same bag if they all fit and the WIP is not too large. I keep my floss on floss cards or in small bags. For the Fortunate Traveler, I keep the floss in marked envelopes standing up in a gift box and the material is in a large ziploc bag. I have a copy of my pattern on a clip board and I keep all this inside a large navy Avon bag. (not the box of floss) lol The Avon bags I bought from my daughter and they are perfect for stitching projects. There are several pockets and it is very sturdy. I bought several of these bags and I have other kitted projects stored in these. Sometimes I just want to start something new and all I have to do is pull it out of my bag. The bags are also very handy to take places. My Rocky Mountain Christmas floss is stored in a small 3-drawer box. The material and pattern are in a ziploc bag.

I used to use the zip-loc bags for storage, but now I use Zippered Mesh bags. They are way more durable than the zip-loc bags. They come in various sizes. Some of the larger ones will hold more than one project. I think I have about 5 in one right now. There are some smaller ones that I carry scissors, extra needles and other little accessory things in. Then I just take that small bag and transfer it between project bags and I am ready to go.
These should be available through your LNS. Suppliers are Yarn Tree and Norden Crafts.
