This is really funny that my DH & myself were just talking about cleaning our closets out, as we both have the same problem as you, with space...and also my DH got me the clamps and then runny boards 2 years ago... and they work great.

You are so clever eddie! I also do this especially with silks woolens and other expensive fabrics to reuse them.
I am looking forward to seeing what you make from them.
Tip... Oh by the way, if you iron on a light-weight interfacing to the back of sweaters, you can use them for some pretty neat things as well. It stablizes the knit to where it is like using a heavy fabric.
