Store Your Quilts In Style

When winter rolls around it’s comforting to get the patchwork quilts out on show – not to mention their practical use! Putting them away doesn’t mean forgetting about them or storing them in plastic packaging until the cold weather rolls around again. We’ve found some of our favourite ways of storing blankets in a neat and stylish way.

This John Lewis Pendleton Trunk Coffee Table (£599.00) serves two purposes: to keep things on, and to keep things in! You can slide the top sections apart to reveal a hidden hollow inside, perfect for those patchworks quilts. And when summer rolls around and you have put the blankets in the attic, you can use the oak unit to store your summer reading and beach equipment.
