Question, what about fading? I only ask because I had a quilt folded on a cedar chest at the foot of our bed, not in direct sunlight and when I opened it up, the edge was faded. Could this happen to fabric stored like this? I have shelves with plastic tubs and I just hate going in them to look for fabric, but I have always been worried about fading if I put the fabric in the open. Any have any answers.
I suppose it can happen to any fabric stored on shelves no matter if it's folded or wound onto bolts. I have one piece of fabric that has faded over the years but it faded on all the folds, not just the one exposed to light. It was blue so it didn't hurt my feelings any to toss it.
