Easy & inexpensive Fabric Storage tutorial
See this pile, this is how I was storing my fabric. It was fine for a while, that is until the addiction really began. I am absolutely addicted to fabric! It used to be scrapbook paper, and now I am 100% addicted to sewing and fabric! Quit shops are my new favorite destination! So I had an idea, and since I have a brilliant husband, he was able to take the idea right out of my head and build it! We used an old bookcase that was out in the garage, so it was also free!
So while he was busy building I was cutting foam core board and making my own mini bolts of fabric.
I took a piece of 20 x 30 foam core board, and cut it down to 10 x 7.5 You can get 8 from one sheet.
Next I wrapped the fabric around the bolts, the great thing about them being foam board is that you can use stick pins to secure the loose ends.
Now the shelf is done, and on the wall, ready to organize my delicious selections of fabric!
Now for all of the scraps! Wire bins sorted by color! All stored under my giant ironing board! Its great for when I am making my scrap maps!
What is your secret for fabric storage?

My husband hung decorative curtain rods on the wall, I use Café curtain rings to hold my fabrics 1 yard or less.

Mines a question…which I may just need to pay with…but wondering more details on the folding on to the boards. If I fold my fabric in half lengthwise, it would be around 11 inches so still too wide for a 7.5 × 10 board. Can you give more details on this…
