How do you store CAKE LAYERS?
I am getting into Fat Quarters...getting them for half price at Joann's sales but I just won a "mystery box" that included a full line of MODA fat quarters and a full line of MODA cake layers.
I fold the FQ's into the small squares they were bought in and have then standing upright in a plastic container...but what about the cake layers? There isn't much there to fold and able to "see" in a pile...I think there is 40 cake layers in 6 colors and one of each of the prints in the line. I don't know how to store them! Any suggestions?

I just saw some 12"w x 12"w x 2"h clear plastic boxes designed for scrapbook pages while at Joann's the other day. They had them in the fabric section of the store as well. I thought "layer cake" the second I saw them.
Congratulations on the spectacular win!

I agree with LoisM & kathdavis, I use the scrapbook paper boxes I get on sale at Joann's. Works great. If you can't find a good way to store at your house, I would be glad to let them come live at mine. Ha Ha. I love the precuts!!! Great win (mystery box). Congratulations.

Thanks everyone. First thing I have ever won in my life!!
But That is how I have them now..in a box flat. But how do you go through them to choose? I mean with fat q's nad even yardage, it is folded a certain way, and put on the shelf..and you just peruse down and across to see the about 1/2 inch showing to choose a fabric/color or pattern then just grab it. If the cake layers are all just stacked on top of each other...you have to flip through each and every one to find what you want and probably multiple times. I guess...put them in order of color but still...am I trying to be to organized?
