Well, there's always sshfs:

If you're stuck emulating windows and you don't mind it being A) read only, B)
horribly inefficient, you can try the virtual FAT support:
http://www.nongnu.org/qemu/qemu-doc.html#SEC25
Note that's got some serious rough edges. Specifically, if you _don't_ mount
that read only, and your kernel accidentally tries to write to it, the device
behaves badly. (My emulated linux kernel went into an endless loop due to a
dropped interrupt or some such. No idea what windows would do, I haven't got
one..)
