The museum was very well organized and had great pieces on the wall. The gift shop was really unique and all things were hand made! Wish it was a little bigger, but overall it was in a good location and enjoyed the surrounding businesses and environment!

I tried making quilts (just the basic easy square ones) in high school. It was a lot of work, making sure the square patterns stay aligned with one other. The quilts at this museum were amazing, pay attention to the details!!Follow me on IG: @ssindyeats for more foodie bites and travel.

The San José Museum of Quilts & Textiles is the first museum in the United States to have a singular focus on art quilts and textiles. The Museum was founded in 1977 upon a mission to share and celebrate the art and culture of textiles. Today, it resides in San José’s vibrant SoFa district, in the heart of Silicon Valley.
