Today's feature is on the Logan County Quilt Trail which is sponsored by Arkansas Chamber of Commerce. #7-29 Paris B&B Ohio Star is at 114 W. Short Mountain St, Paris, AR. Paris Bed & Bath is a vacation rental home that was established in 2022 by Kecia Schluterman. The property and business was later purchased by Chris, Andrea, & Kinsley Walker in the summer of 2024. The Walkers have always dreamt of owning a vacation rental home that would contribute to bringing tourism to Paris, which is ‘The Gateway to Mt. Magazine”. The Walkers shut the business side down for a few months to renovate and to put their own spin on the home. The home has many unique features and history to it, including a vintage clawfoot bathtub, glass door k***s, and the original hardwood floors. It also features old parking meters that used to be located on the Paris square. Inside of the home you can find an old bible and an old metal coffee pot that was recovered from the Smith Hospital that was built in 1913. The house is located across the street from Dottie and Raymond Neumeir which used to own a quilting academy in Paris. At the time Dottie was the coordinator for the Logan County Quilt Trail. Chris became very interested in the barn quilt blocks and the meanings behind them and of course Dottie was thrilled to share any and all information about them. The further along things went, Chris decided to step out of his elements and to paint his own quilt block. Raymond has designed and painted several of the quilt blocks in the area and shared many tips and tricks with Chris to help him get started. He even gave Chris the wood panel to paint it on. Chris chose the ‘Ohio Star’ pattern for his quilt block because of its simplicity to coordinate with the cottage style home. The 3ft X 3ft quilt block has various shades of greens and browns to accent the exterior of the house. By the time everything was said and done Dottie decided to pass the torch of the Logan County Quilt Trail coordinator on to Chris which he was very humbled to accept. If you’re ever planning a trip to the area, Paris Bed & Bath would be more than happy to host you! You can find them on Airbnb & VRBO.
