I used some styrofoam that my husband had from something -- it was about 1/2 inch thick and it works great. I just stick straight pins in it at the end to hold and stick a label on with the yardage. It's such a great idea. You can probably use almost anything for wrapping like thick cardboard, etc. Have fun with it.

One thing you may want to be aware of is your fabric needs to be wrapped on "ACID FREE" what ever. That is why I chose COLOPLAST. My husband had some signage that had paper on it and it was not ACID FREE so I tossed it out. I didn't want my fabric to do funky stuff. You may want to surf the web to learn more about acid free surface and fabrics. Just a thought!
