Fabric storage bin

This is my new system. I think you can still buy these metal grid storage systems at Home Depot, or Jysk, or Bed Bath and Beyond. They come with plastic corners to join the squares together, but I find these plastic corners unstable in insecure. So I construct my cubes with zip ties. By building individual cubes instead of a larger multicube unit, I can pull down or cart around one bin of fabric at a time.
Someday I hope to sort my fabric by color. A green bin, a blue bin, a pink bin, a black bin, etc. For now, I don’t care about that. For now, I simply want all my fabric in the same place in my house and I want it all visible and I want it all accessible. It that too much too ask?
I’m going to need more zip ties.
