I keep my yardage folded and stacked on plastic shelving units. Pieces that are less than a yard, but 1/8 or greater, are kept in drawers under my cutting table (it is an old dresser). Anything smaller than 1/8th of a yard is cut into 5 inches squares or 2 1/2 strips and kept in plastic shoe boxes. I will never live long enough to use up all my stash! None of mine, by the way, is exposed to direct sunlight.
