I have all my fabric wrapped around acid free hard "plastic" (it isnot real plastic, but made of a composition that looks & acts like plastic) Anyway, I type the name of manufacturer, the date purchased, the amount on the bolt & other pertinent info on a paper & tape it to the bottom right of the bolt. I completely cover the paper with tape. Whenever I use anything off that bolt, I make a notation of the current amount now on the bolt. I do have to pull out the bolt & lift up the fabric to see the inf, but I didn't want anything taped to the fabric. It works for me. Good luck & keep on building your stash. :)

Nice arrangement. We love our inspectors, don't we?

There are clips you can buy to hold the fabric on the boards (I forget what they are called). Then you can slide a piece of paper under the clips with your info on them. I would remove the sticky labels as the adhesive will harm the fabric over time.

You are so organized!

Looks great and I agree, you do need more fabrics to keep them standing straight. I have mostly large pices and I fold them with a ruler. I lay them flat, always have enough for what I want to make. I am making scrap quilts now, I let them pile up.

It looks very nice. I have some Polar Notions boards that I bought a long time ago and have never used.

Looks great! Now to appease the inspector...

The tuts showing how to fold fabric inspired me. I took my 7 bins of fabric and folded them so that they now only take up 2 shelves - instead 7. I hated having to look through the bins to find a fabric. Now I can see all 800+ pcs at a glance. Even better is that I picked out a fabric and got it out of the stack without disrupting the other pcs. I love how much I learn from folks on the board. When I learn how to use my camera and get pics onto my computer I'll post the results of all my folding.

I think you need to go on a shopping trip. I think everyone needs to go shopping for more fabric;) I love your kitty.
