Dear Sue, My suggestion would be to roll, or store flat. Many have taken a wonderful set of fine linens out of long-term storage, and had them separate at the pressed creases.
Every time you crease fabric, or press creases into it, you weaken the fibers in the creased area. Your everyday clothing wears out and is recycled before you see this sort of thing. But something that might be used once in a generation? No creases, if possible.
