Nice steel case shelving unit. Interesting idea about folding them on a 6 x 24. Fons & Porter suggested doing something similar. I may try that with my 3 yard or less quilt fabrics. The backings and many of the dress length clothing fabrics won't fold down to this size, so I'd use two stacks per shelf for those still.

Love the picture.
