You take your 6" (or 8" ) x 24" inch ruler, and fold the fabric around it. Then fold in half (or thirds).
This way, when you place it on the shelf, each piece is the exact same size, and they all line up and pile up nicely.
It's a beautiful thing.
Think T-shirts at Old Navy/The Gap.

Folding your fabric around a 6" ruler, then slipping out the ruler. The idea is to "wind" your fabric around a ruler like it is around the bolt in the store. Folds up nice and neat and all the same size and easy to cut from one end without unfolding the whole piece of fabric.

Nah, I don't. You can pretty easily tell the difference between 1 or 2 or 3 yard cut by the thickness of the fold (which would be facing you on the shelf). I'm sure, however, some folks do sort like that.
Personally, I think it's all just a measure of an individual's level of OCD . ;) ;) ;)
