I had my stash in big plastic bins and would get frustrated every time I was looking for a specific fabric. Then I saw the flat fold system for storing fabrics here and I folded all of my fabric and put it on my shelves. Now when I go into my workroom, I see my entire stash at a glance. Love, love love it! I've been collecting fabrics since the 60's and have over 1000 pcs ranging from fat qtrs to several yards. Solids are on one shelf, prints on another, fat qtrs on another and themed prints on another. Now I can audition several fabrics in a fraction of the time it took to go thru bins. I highly recommend flat folding.
