3. folding fabric (have your fabric neat not wrinkled!) Have fold near you and selvedges away from you. Bring selvedges to the fold and firmly hand press to keep neat. The remainder of the fabric will be in a chait that is cloth so it doesn't slide around and off the chair. This is important! It took me a bit to realize I needed the fabric on a cloth chair. It works well and keeps the weight evenly distributed for ease of folding. LOTS of pictures to come! Pictures are 1-24
I thought I would give your folding a try. My fabric is a mess and it is difficult to find things. Purchasing the plastic is not quite cost effective right now, so I'm using card stock and index cards. I absolutely love you idea and am so happy to have found it. My sewing room is only about 10 x10 and every inch is taken. But when I buy fabric and bring it home, it usually stays in the bag until I can figure out where to put it. Now with folding everything, even scraps, 44" and 60" materials can be done the same way. It is amazing and takes up so much less space! Thank you so much for sharing with the board. Will upload some of my pictures of my sewing room later with the material folded. Thanks again...
