Thanks for the info.

I also used the ruler method.My fabric fits so well and is so neat now.I can see what I have and it takes up less space.It is folded so nice and equal in size and the ruler pulls straight out and there you are..nice even sized fabric.No acid worry.

Go to a Comic book store and buy the boards designed for the comic books...acid free and at the local store here 100 cost $6.99 needless to say I had to purchase 7 packs

I will bite. What is the ruler fold method?????

I use the ruler method too, but I can understand the draw of having it on cardboard. Less floppy. My fabric is in drawers. This way would work better on shelves if you wanted to shelve it on end like books rather than stacking the folded pieces on top of one another. The one you want is always going to be on the bottom!

Someone has a link to a youtube video of how to do it. Basically, I used 24" long by 5" wide ruler. Lay your fabric flat on your table, fold to one side, selvedge to the other, lay the ruler across so you have ends to hold onto. Start folding the fabric around the ruler. When you get to the end, pull the ruler out and fold this into thirds so the selvedge side is to the inside. Voila, nice and neat and they will be all one size. You could use whatever ruler fits your storage needs.

Whay haven't I thought of that. Thank you so much.

The ruler fold method is when you fold your fabric in half and wrap it neatly around the ruler.You just keep wrapping it around and around and then slide the ruler out and they are neatly folded.

hey sherry - make sure your cardboard is archival quality because cardboard boxes have acid in them that will make spots on material. if they're not - you may want to spray paint them before you use them.
