I know that you asked Quiltgranny but I must tell you what I use to store fabric. When I am a "snow bird" in Florida during the Jersey winters, I do not have a sewing room, so for one of the closets, I purchased a couple of the hanging sweater shelves. They work wonders. They have 6 shelves and are about 12"x12". You can also purchase canvas drawers for them and they hold patterns, books and whatever other smaller items you might need to store.

You wouldn't believe how much fabric you can fit into them.

I also purchased one for shoes, which has 10 shelves and they are 6"x12". That one is great for FQs and smaller pieces of cotton.

My hubby cut plexiglass to fit for more stability.

Liked them so much, that when I returned home in the spring, I went and bought more for the closet here. What is so nice about them, when the closet door is closed...it's out of sight but the best is that there is no sunlight on them.

Will try to insert picture, if possible....don't have too much luck with that !!!!!

Just a thought.....works well for me.
