Fabric Stash Organization Idea

Happy New Year!  I’ve been in the process of reorganizing my sewing room.  One issue I have, and I’m sure you may too, is how to store my fabric stash.

Granted, I don’t have a lot of fabric in comparison to many people I follow on social media but still it’s a problem I want to solve.

While looking online for cardboard fabric bolts I discovered mini-bolts.  The only problem I could foresee was they were too short for my 60” wide fabrics.  The ones I saw were only 12" long.  That's great for 45" wide fabric but most of my stash is 54" -  60" wide.  Folded in fourths is at most 15".  

My shelves in my sewing room each measured at 8” deep and 35” long.  I really wanted my mini-bolts to be at least 18” long and 6-7” wide.

Many of the mini-bolts I found on Etsy were sold by lots of 50 which cost $64.  Although a little over $1 each was not an issue I simply didn’t need that many.

I have a solution!
