Here is a tutorial to help you,

This is what I do in my closet, but when I fold the fabric in half again it is 11". I have 16" deep shelves and like the little extra space at the front. The fabric just looks so nice all lined up that I never get it messed up any more; am very careful when I take something out or put something back.
