I have tried to attach an excel spreadsheet that shows my caluculations to cut the 4'x8' sheet for the fabric folding boards and also a 18"x24" sheet for the smaller fabric folding boards. I found a sign store that will sell me the big sheet for $12.00 and you can see on the spreadsheet how many I will get from the sheets. I made the big sheets a 1/2 inch larger, it would have been waste and it gives me more space to put the label that I will put on the board at the top of boards how much fabric is on the board. I can't wait to pick them up on Monday and get started. Hope the attachment works, if not, email me and I can email the file to you. Again, thanks alaskasunshine for this tutorial. Sally
Excel Spreadsheet Cutting Fabric Boards [ATTACH=CONFIG]29389[/ATTACH] |
I did the same thing. I went to the Dollar Tree and purchased foam boards for, yes, .99 cents. I cut them up and placed my fabrics as you demonstrated. It took me a month and just loaded them onto my shelves. I used rubber bands to secure the fabric. My problem is that I don't have them organized by color yet like you have yours. That's another project I need to do when I get a chance. Thanks for posting pictures, your sewing room looks awesome!

I was in a "do it yourself type" store and bought some extra-large cardboard boxes. I didn't need all of them after all so I cut up the extra ones and used them. Worked great.

Has anyone mentioned plastic canvas sheets yet?
I uncovered some this afternoon buried in all my stuff that I had bought who-knows-when and they were already the right size. They work great too. |
