Quilt Closet Organized

I'm one of those people who can't deal with clutter once it happens!  In my head I want everything to be all nice and orderly but in practice....well, you know how it is.   Once my quilt closet got cluttered it became a spot of overwhelmingness (yes, I made that word up!)...so I'd just flip open the curtain and throw in whatever needed to be "put away".   Ugh.   It finally got to a point where I couldn't remember what was in there....and that's bad.  That's when you start re-buying what you already own cuz you forgot you had it....and I didn't want to go there.   It was time to dig in and organize.

Here's my closet before:

And here it is after:
Much better.  :) 
There are shelves off to either side too...and they are all pretty now.    I didn't really purge much but now I know what I have and where it all is.

Nice, mom. Your organizing looks really good and I can see how it is much less overwhelming and much more functional!

Are the quilts on top shelf just waiting for bindings???
I wish I only had that many project totes in my closet. I have enough for a store I bet.

Oh man, please inspire me to attack my closets, will you? :)

They look so nice and purty!
