Textile Museums Mapped
When we go on holiday, I always research the interesting places to visit, so I thought I would compile a map of textile museums because I love visiting them (even though it annoys my teenage sons…). This one is worldwide, I haven’t visited even a quarter of them but hope to do so! Please contact me (email address on the sidebar) if you know of any more.
They are not all dedicated textile museums: some are folk museums with a large element of interesting textile information and/or demonstrations, local to the area in which they are situated. Underneath my map are two others: one dedicated to France compiled by France Patchwork and one focussing on Ireland compiled by The Woolly Way of Ireland Blog.

This may be split into different regions in the future.

I have a page of online textile history websites here too.
