I agree...that's why I said, "covered," fabrics. It would be easy to sew a sleeve to cover the rolls and bolts.
I'm also thinking about using a vintage, Pullman train rack/shelf above a window to hold fabrics. Again, I would cover them to prevent fading. An in expensive drop cloth from Harbor Freight would make a suitable fabric for a few covers.
