See how textiles are changing your world, from protective clothing for firefighters and soldiers to revolutionary “shark skin” suits for our gold-medal Olympic swimmers - and so much more. You’ll never look at the fascinating world of textiles the same way again.

The New England Quilt Museum is a showplace for both antique and contemporary quilts. Bringing together the best of both traditional folk art and contemporary fiber art, the museum is a celebration of the artform. Exhibitions range from a show by modernist artists to historic quilts from the 18th and 19th centuries. The museum is also a gathering place for quilters of all styles and levels. Classes on interesting techniques, lectures by leading quilting scholars, and a shop featuring the newest fabrics make the museum a destination for quilt enthusiasts. The museum also has a vibrant online community, featuring discussions and quilt patterns.
