Brilliant, thank you Katie! I am not a quilter, but I had a 6x24” ruler that I can finally use, lol! I have the IKEA Kallax shelving units in my sewing room. I just tried this on a few pieces of my fabric. It is so tidy and you can see everything you have so much better! Now I know what I am doing this afternoon! ❤️👏🏻👏🏻🇨🇦👏🏻👏🏻❤️
That ruler method was new to me. Like just about every other sewer i use Kallax shelves. I mostly use the comic book board method and make my own baby bolts of fabric. I love the look of it but it’s not quite the best use of the space. I’m going to give that ruler method a go and do a ‘fabrics per cube’ count. It looks like you can fit far more in each cube by ruler folding. That means i can hoard even more fabric! WooHoo! 😂
I make comic boards by buying foam core board at the Dollar store and cutting it to about 7" x 10". It's sturdy, and I get about 6 or 8 pieces per sheet.But it does take more space since it's thicker. Poster board would work too. I'm going to try the ruler method. Thanks!
Loved the ruler method for folding. I do have some comicbook boards to try. Do you ever tag the fabric as to how much yardage there is on each piece? I find this very helpful.

The only thing that makes me sad is my long quilting ruler is 8”x24” sigh.
I also find the comic boards don’t work best in the cubes. I prefer them on a shelf.

Impressive! Thank you
You're very welcome, thank you so much!
cant find those plastic fabric clips on amazon?
hmmmm maybe they aren't available there anymore - we'll see if we can find an alternate link :)
