I have my fabrics in stacks, too. I colorized them until I ran out of space in the stack, then it went to hodge-podge stacks, but it works.

But after I fold it, I pull out my ruler and then fold them in half the other way. Two rows fit perfectly in each shelf. I also just love looking at my wall of color.
One other idea I use is under the bed shoe storage containers. Got them at Hancock Fabric. They hold "tons" of fabric!
