    Ikea is an amazing source for storage ideas - my quilting room has one wall lined with "Billy" bookcases and I have a 16-cube 'Expedit' unit on another wall. Just DO NOT order online from them as their shipping charges are horrendously pricey!!

    I just go to the Joann's store and ask the ladies for the cardboard that fabric comes in on and then cut it into what ever size I want. It is free then they don't have to carry it out to the dumpster. I figure if the fabric comes on it to the stores it should be good enough for me to store mine on it and it is FREE.

    I purchased my comic boards from Amazon.com. My fabric is now neat and organized on a bookcase. When I am picking out fabric for a new quilt it is so easy to pull the fabric and also to stand back and look for colors.

    I couldn't figure out what comic boards were either - just happened to browse an old page and came across this message. Good tutorial also. I'll keep this in mind. Like the idea of the boards being acid free.
