I keep everything but selvages.. This is how my room is organized..
These are in tubs no matter what size they are:

Flannel
Vintage fabric (35in xWOF)- all goes in one tub
Authentic 30's feedsacks
All my Bolts (3+yards) are on the bookcase and in walk in closet.
All my 1-2 yards cuts are ruler folded, then separated by color on bookcases
Batiks are in a sterilite three drawer unitl seperated by light med dark..
Fqs are separated by color, floral, novelty in it's own sections on wall cd racks, closet maid shoe organizers.. Each area has its own 'theme' so i can find what I'm looking for.
