Winterset, Iowa Quilt Museum Photo Heavy!

The Iowa Quilt Museum is in Winterset, Iowa. I think this was one of my favorite towns that we visited! The women at the museum were unbelievably friendly and in general everyone in town was pretty pleasant. (we also picked up a couple of cute pieces of clothing and Laurie bought an antique quilt!)

But for the special exhibit at the museum was HOUSES!

A celebration of house quilts! WOW! Each one unique and so wonderful!

We liked this one a lot made from antique quilt blocks.

It was so special to see Wendy's potholder style house quilt at the museum!

Covered Bridges of Madison County. (tell me you've seen the movie please)

Clark Tower

We climbed it but didn't

quite understand the story about it

I was fascinated by these giant silos. I live in farm country but we don't have these. 

Thanks for indulging me on the midwest road trip!
