FAQ's
- Are they made of cardboard?
NO!
- Do they fit in any bookcase?
Yes. Most bookcases have a 12-13" clearance between shelves.
- How much fabric will fit on one sheet?
One customer put 13 yds on one. They were designed for 1/2 yd and up.
- Can I put more than one fabric on 1 sheet?
Absolutely! Stack your fabric and wrap per directions and at the end just fold down each piece so that they show.
- Why can't I just use the bolts that the stores use?
THANK YOU for asking....because they aren't ACID-FREE.

The method of wrapping for both sizes is very similar. For the original
size, the fabric on the bolt in a store is folded once. Fold one more time
until your fabric measures approximately 11" by length of yardage purchased.
Secure one end into the notches and wrap into a bolt, secure with Bolt
Buddies.
If you are putting more than one fabric on the storage sheet, fold as usual
and layer the pieces with the longest on the bottom to the shortest, with
all of the pieces meeting at the end of the wrap. Secure the longest piece
in the notches and start wrapping. You will pick up the shorter pieces as
you go. About 13" from the end, throw all the fabrics over the top of the
bolt. One at a time, bring the fabrics back to the right and make a 45
degree fold. The first fabric will be folded all the way the edge. The
remaining fabrics should be folded in increments of about an inch above the
previous fold. When finished, complete the wrap. You should be able to see
all of the fabrics on the bolt. Secure.
For the fat quarter sheets fold the 22" width into fourths. Secure one end
into the slot and wrap into a mini bolt and secure with Bolt Buddies. If you
are putting more than 1 (for example of 3) on the bolt, fold the 18" side
into fourths. You will end up with a narrower piece. Place one piece down,
and the next about 1/2" above it and the last piece " above that. Wrap. When
done, you will be able to see all three fabrics.
Best Wishes,

Bolt Buddies! Better than pins that can catch on fabric or make small holes; better than rubber bands that can dry out and become brittle; better than ribbons that need to be re-tied whenever you use your bolt of fabric. Made of stainless steel, they are the answer to securing the ends of your fabric after you've completed the wrapping process! We offer the bolt buddies in quantities of 50 , with free shipping when purchased with any quantity of Fabric Storage Sheets.
