Just about a year ago, the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles had a great exhibit called Still Crazy which featured glorious Victorian crazy quilts from the Museum's permanent collection.   According to the museum a crazy quilt is "A purely decorative art object that fused a 16th century Japanese patchwork tradition with the fine embroidery revived by the British Arts & Crafts Movement, the late 19th century crazy quilt presaged modernists' use of abstraction and collage techniques, and was a forerunner of the contemporary art quilt."  It is truly a visual treat for the eyes.  Enjoy!
