I bought a full roll (two actually, one is under my quilting frame on a pole that is meant for it but I don't have a place for the other and thought of hanging it from the ceiling as well. But explain the U shaped hangers and a HD rod please.

I don't have a lot of FQ's since I tend to buy yardage. I have 2 drawers full of fabrics and the fabrics to go with the focus fabric and the pattern I'm going to make with it, this way I don't mistakenly cut up fabrics that I had intentions of using for a different quilt. Batting storage can be a problem, but what I'm going to do(when I have the money to buy a full roll) is to put 2 U shaped hangers and a HD rod of some kind on the wall directly above my cutting table, then when I need batting I just "roll" off what I need.
