I agree with winding it on a bolt - I actually use 'mini bolts' like the comic book boards. I buy the foam board at the dollar store and cut it into 6 smaller boards, fold my fabric in half lengthwise so it's about 11" wide. It's a little wider than the board is high but that isn't a problem with storage. That makes it very easy for me to manage a large yardage, unroll what I need, and 2 turns around the board is very close to a yard so it's easy to estimate what I have left.
