I too have tubs but I did not purchase the great big ones. Mine are about two to four gallons in size. I have loved looking at everyone's stash organization posts and pictures so on a QB posters advice I went and got some comic book backer boards (100 for $10). I too am going to fold my fabrics around them but since they are already sorted by color I'll be able to put them right back in the tubs and put the lids back on. They are stacked under my LA quilting frame so I just have to spin around in my chair to look at the clear tubs to see what I have. Maybe just a different method of tub storage would work for you too? Just a thought.
