Yesterday, I dropped by the Rutland General Store to visit with the area quilters who were there for their weekly Friday gathering. Nearly every week one of the quilters has a quilt front or an entire quilt completed. Today’s completed quilt was done by Doris and everyone got an opportunity to see her handiwork. The group of women come from Lisbon, Milnor, Rutland and other area towns and most have been coming when possible on Fridays for several years.

Today, the Store is hosting another group of visiting quilting enthusiasts and more are planned.  Stop by next time you are near the town and shop for quilting supplies or have coffee with the group of Wise Men who also regularly assemble most afternoons.
