The way I was storing my book cloth was causing all my wrinkles

I always had wrinkles in my book cloth when I got ready to bind. I used to just fold it up and toss it in a drawer. One day, I saw a tip about rolling cloth around tubes. It clicked that the folds were making the wrinkles stay. I took some empty paper towel tubes and rolled the cloth around them. Now the cloth lays flat every time I need it. It even freed up space in my tight corner. This easy change saved me a lot of hassle and made my projects go smoother.

I was a skeptic too, but my fabric is actually wrinkle-free now.

Rolling the cloth around tubes is a game changer. I had the same wrinkle issue and this really works.

Oh wow, that totally reminds me of what happened with my friend Sarah. She was going crazy over wrinkled fabric for a project and nothing was helping. She saw a tip like yours, @hannah_fisher58, and tried rolling everything around cardboard tubes from wrapping paper. It sounded too simple to work. But she texted me a picture the next day and the cloth was completely smooth, no iron needed. She said it saved her so much time and stress.

Actually, that never works for me, it just leaves the fabric with long creases. I still have to iron everything flat.
