Oh my, you do have your work cut out for you! First of all I would separate the fabric as to what it is.....cotton/ home dec/ polyester/ dress making etc.... Then just start in folding. You may want to ruler fold for now. I have no idea how many of the comic board thingys you would need. I personally ruler fold mine. It would be better than what you are currently dealing with AND you don't have to wait for more boards. Also, so you have anyone you can enlist for help. I looked to see where you live to see if you were close to me, but no such luck. You definitely could use some help, plus it would make time go quicker. Good luck and keep us posted.
