Looking forward for your experience with them. Also would like to know about how many yards would fit on a board?

I have them and it does make it easier to see what I have. When I first did this about 18 months ago I was amazed at what I found and just how much fabric I had. I have the wire drawers with wood on top that my husband cut to fit and the fabric lines very nicely in them.

Re: Comic Boards
I'm on my third pack (bought four) I got three yards on one. But if I did it over I would put two cards for that much. It works okay with one though. Under a 1/2 yard I just folded and stacked. It's fun seeing all the polka dots in one place and the sripes in another. It feels so great to be organized!

These are the ones I get and a lot of other people use as well. They are acid free, which is good for storing fabrics. Your local comic book/trading card store probably has them as well.
