The Vestal Museum is bustling with its new Quilt and Antique Toy Display, \u201cBits and Bobbins.\u201d The exhibit features a dozen quilts from the late 1800\u2019s to the 1970\u2019s. These beautifully crafted quilts are examples of how generations of women showed their love and dedication to their families and community. There are quilts that raised money for special causes (Signature Quilts), some of the quilts fostered a sense of friendship and community (grange and guild work) and some are homespun quilts for comfort.<\/span><\/p>\n

The toys span from homespun rag dolls to a great example of a miniature steamboat. Bring the children to the museum to see our display of Vestal Main Street in the 1950’s and play \u201cI Spy\u201d with the diorama. <\/span><\/p>\n
