When you buy it at the Dollar Store what is it called? I'd like to calm my fabrics down...right now they're wild beasts hanging out all over the place ohhh wait that's also called my hair! But really what's it called so I can find it at my dollar store? Thanks so much!

I don't know about your $ $tore$ but ours don't have labels as to what it is called!
In ours it's usually near the bristol board display.

I have found that I really need to use 2 magazine boards to keep the fabric solidly standing.

will have to check our home depot

It's always something, isn't it?! I just folded all my material and put it in plastic bins. I would love to have the type of storage showin in the link above. Rethinking my method here...

I like this idea too! Thanks Kathdavis!

I DO APPRECIATE you bringing back up the fantastic job "Alaskasunshine" has done with her sewing room. I bookmarked that to return to, but as of yet had not read WHAT type of board she had used to wrap her fabric around (initially I thought it was foamcore board). I'll be looking for coroplast locally to see what prices I encounter. If it's more then I can handle I'll investigate Kathdavis' suggestion next. I had not thought about the "acid free" aspects. GOOD SUGGESTION!

Alaskasunshine sure got a lot of us inspired to ORGANIZE things right.

I get the empty fabric bolt cardboard from my LQS, cut it up and its perfect to put the material.

I don't use the cardboard to put on the fabric I do fold it and stack it then I put the cardboard inbetween the stacks. I got the cardboard from fabric shop empty bolt cardboard it is firm and works fine.

I, too, get the empty bolt cardboards from all quilt shops I go to. They are happy to let you take them as it saves them from having to deal with them later.

Wow, Being new to all of this has be so excited to try this. I love how they are easy to see on the board instead of just in a bin.
