The only museum in the western United States dedicated exclusively to quilts and textile arts, housed in a converted downtown building. Rotating exhibitions showcase both historical American quilts and contemporary fiber art from international artists. The gift shop carries genuinely interesting handmade goods. Caveat: the space is small and a single visit rarely takes more than 90 minutes.
