The Iowa Quilt Museum welcomes quilters, quilt lovers, history buffs, and all appreciators of American art and culture.

Our mission is to promote appreciation of the American quilt and the art of quilting through displays of quilts and information about quilt history.

In Flanders Field The Poppies Grow

We’re excited to welcome our newest exhibit, a moving collection of 6 powerful Quilts of Valor paired with all 225 of the beautiful Cherrywood Poppy Quilt Challenge quilts. Due to the scale of this special installation, the official opening has been rescheduled to Tuesday, April 14.

In the meantime, you’re warmly invited to stop in and experience the exhibit as it comes to life. Our gift shop is open daily, and visitors are welcome to view the installation process free of charge.

The best is yet to come.
