I did a little bit of re-arranging of my quilting space this week. I forgot to get a 'before' picture, but below is the 'after' picture. In the corner where those two sets of shelves are used to be a very old rickety desk with an equally rickety 'hutch' on top that had no back. There was a lot of unusable space. I realized that things were starting to get crowded and were just ending up in unusable piles, so, a trip to Ikea was in order!

While I was travelling a couple of weekends ago, TheGuy made the trip for me and assembled the shelves. Yay! When I got back, I moved the shelves into place and started re-organizing. I now have a better way to keep track of books, magazines, and catalogs, and a lot more shelfspace to store things on. I think it's a good step forward.
