I have an obsession with storage containers, and I try them all - but these are my containers of choice for quilting projects.
First, they seal securely and yet are easy to open - no flimsy sides that make it difficult to open. The latches are not integrated into the plastic box, but attached separately so that they move freely when open, but clip tightly when closed.
Second, they are square - no rounded corners that make you have to bend the contents to fit them in. And they are as stable on their sides as they are when laying flat. I store them vertically on a shelf, and they stand up securely so I can grab a handle and pull out just the box I want without having to shift a lot of things off the top of a pile.
Third, they are a perfect size for all the fabrics and notions I want to store for a single project. I do have the double size satchels too, for larger or flannel projects, but for a standard twin size quilt, I can store everything but the batting in one of these boxes, and know that it will be all together when I'm ready to work.
I've tried many others, but these win hands down for me - you won't be disappointed!
