Art's right -- a portable steamer is a great tool. You can also dampen the fabric and run it through your clothes dryer on low heat just long enough to warm it. I know several people who bought PVC pipe from Home Depot or the like and wrap the fabric around that when it's not in use. The length can be an issue for storage and transport, but it's better than folding or crumpling it into a big messy ball.
