As you saw in the first collection, Joyce Gross collected some amazing quilts. For more on Joyce click here.  This second slideshow highlights some quilts by Mary Kingwell Ireland Butler, Emma Andres, and Florence Peto.  It also showcases some of the early kits, notably Dogwood and Snowflake, where tiny dots were used to show where the quilter should take their stitches.    

Watch for Joyce Gross #3 tomorrow afternoon.  Thank you to the San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles for sharing this great exhibit.
