It’s here. It’s enormous. It’s a beauty. And it’s on display — in Plymouth. The long-awaited and much-an ticipated Washingtons Unite quilt arrived in Washington County last week via special delivery. The quilt goes on display at Plymouth’s Maritime Museum Wednesday, Sept. 9, and remains on display through Sept. 12, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day.
