Antique Ohio Amish Quilts from the Darwin D. Bearley Collection is the new exhibit at the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles. There's a beautiful book from 2006 which I've had for a couple years that documents the collection. I was so fortunate to see this amazing exhibit presenting 'Quilts as Art'!
