I store my fabric in a lot of places, too little storage, or too much fabric??? : ). My dh put shelves in my little sewing room closet. there I store large quantity fabric wrapped around the store cardboard things that came from Joann's, (standing like they do in JoAnn's). in front of them, I have the small yardage folded somewhat by color.On the bottom, I have a plastic bin of civil war scraps. I store fabric in clear plastic bins in other closets in the guest room. Then there is more fabric in hope chests in the attic walk in. My advice to you is where ever you store fabric, keep it out of any day light. The day light will fade fabric along the fold - happened to me years ago. My stash is just too large. My goal is now just to buy what I will use for a project. I steer clear of fabric stores, unless I am looking for something specific. Sometimes I can, other times I fall right off the wagon!!
