I fold my fabric pieces that are larger than 1/2 yard around my 6 inch wide ruler, pull the ruller out, then fold them in half. Then I stack them on top of each other with the fold side showing. Takes up less space yet I can still see the fabric. I store them in those vinyl covered wire boxes that you can stack in several formats. They are 14 inches square, so I can get two large stacks in nicely.
