 Computer-Designed Quilts at AMQT

Another museum is the American Museum of Quilts and Textiles in San
Jose (766 South 2nd Street, San Jose, CA 95112, ph. 415-971-0323).
They are open Wednesday through Saturday from 10 to 4 and Sundays from
noon to 4.  This month they have an exhibit of quilts made by two
quilters who used computers to design their patterns.  One woman
created her own quilt program to handle the designing.  Her quilts
have a sort of "kaleidescope" quality to them.  The other woman, I
think, used Adobe Illustrator.  Her quilts have a lot of optical
illusions and dimension.  The quilts are very interesting and the two
techniques produced very different quilts.
