I just love the way this looks, very nice, and I could see how easy it would be to spot the perfect fabric from your stash.
Question, what about fading? I only ask because I had a quilt folded on a cedar chest at the foot of our bed, not in direct sunlight and when I opened it up, the edge was faded. Could this happen to fabric stored like this? I have shelves with plastic tubs and I just hate going in them to look for fabric, but I have always been worried about fading if I put the fabric in the open. Any have any answers.

i cut mine about 8.5 x 11. I get 5 from each board that size plus one narrow one. I have a square scrap left over I'm giving to my daughter in law for her home school projects this winter.
