I've always been extremely neat and organized, almost neurotically so, except when it came to my sewing room. In there it seems that I've just never had the right kind of storage or enough of it, but I didn't really know what I needed or wanted. Things would pile up, I'd set things aside to sort "later" but we all know that later never gets here. Finally I got a new Billy bookcase from Ikea this week. Should have gotten it long ago, I'm so pleased with it!
I had a Billy bookcase from a few years ago and had all of my fabric stuffed into it, but it was just barely 24" wide and things didn't quite fold nicely without having to specially make room. Hard to explain, but it just didn't fit well. This new one is supposedly the same bookcase, but they're making them a tad wider now, and it's PERFECT!
So now I have Big Billy (new one), Little Billy (old one), and this little guy in the middle. The little one isn't an actual Billy Bookcase but I call him Baby Billy (he's adopted, don't tell him .. shhhhh!). I have some patterns in binders standing down at the bottom of Big Billy, and all of my fabric fits just right without having to fiddle with folding!

Little Billy holds my quilting magazines, books, and patterns, folders for QoV, Canucks stuff, freezer paper, wonder under, everything that was set aside to put away "later". Later came!

I'm very pleased with my sewing room now. I can go in there and not feel overwhelmed with the clutter, there's a place for everything and everything is in its place. It will be very easy to keep it tidy from now on. Now I'm working on a wall-hanging to put up on the wall above my sewing machine.
