Repository - Built in 1996, the repository comes with conservatorial lighting, hermetic temperature control and museum space-saving storage fittings. Everything about its design is calculated to minimize the degradation of textiles. Collections are stored in acid free boxes. The repository has its own computer system and the Past Perfect data base program is used to catalogue Latimer collections. It is not open to the public but can be viewed by appointment.

Collections - The Latimer Center’s collection includes quilts from the mid-nineteenth century to the present, quilt blocks, quilt templates and fabric samples. There are also clothing, hand- woven coverlets, looms, spinning wheels and other quilting and weaving textile tools and implements.
