That depends on which part of the sentence you want to emphasize.
For example, If your wife is normally doing the folding laundry thing, and you are trying to do that for her today, the emphasis of the sentense should be "I" (instead of "you" who normally do the job)
In this case, you may wanna say"我来叠衣服" (in Pinyin: wo lai die yi fu)
However, if your emphais is on " will fold the laudry", what you want to say is simply"我要叠衣服了" (in Pinyin: wo yao die yi fu le)

Yeah I think hikariaya did a good job. 我要叠衣服了 is to tell others that what you are going to do is folding the laundry. While 我来叠衣服 is to tell others that the person who are going to fold the laundry is you. However, the difference is quite detailed. Actually you can also be understood if you could not distinguish them :)
