I refolded all my fabric recently to accomplish two things... 1, to fit better on my shelves, and 2, (which is really practical) to make it easier to cut without unfolding the whole piece! I fold it selvage to selvage, then in half cut edge to cut edge. Then I start at the folded end, and fold it over and over (about 6" wide), kinda like it was on the cardboard at the store, so you end up with the cut edges at the end. Then I fold it in half and put it on my pile! This way, when I'm ready to cut, I only have to unfold a small portion to cut off what I need.
