GREATER CINCINNATI STASH POT PIE
WHY YOU SHOULD NOT STORE IN PLASTIC:
When plastic degrades, that is when it destroys the fabric. The degradation process releases chemicals into the fabric, and that is how it can harm fabric. However, a heavy-duty plastic bag will not degrade enough in six months (if stored away from direct heat and sunlight) or a year to do damage to a fabric. A thin plastic, like a dry-cleaner bag, will degrade much more quickly and can stain fabric within months.
A BETTER STORAGE IDEA MIGHT BE:
Open air storage racks.
Cloth covered wood shelves
THIS IS A NO-NO!

One of the first things we learned was how to store your stash. There are many different options, but the Number 1 rule to remember is: BE CAREFUL WITH PLASTIC.
STORE:
On open shelves so the fabric can breathe and you can see it.
Wrapped on cardboard
Hung on padded hangers
On open air grid drawers
Store in a spare bedroom
A little messy! Look familiar?
