Step 3....donate what you will really truly not live long enough to use. There are groups that makes quilts for shelters, soldiers and their families, church groups, etc. I even gave away some of my older quilts to a warming center. I got ahold of a bunch of flat boxes that would fit under my couch and beds. Step 4...start finishing the quilts you were so excited to start. That was reserved for quilts that were my second favorites and would not be done within the next couple of years. Repeat. I promise you will be so much happier without the guilt and frustration that's there now. I would probably have never done what it takes to get organized had it not been for the move but I am so happy I did.
