High on a Hill in Devou Park sits the Behringer- Crawford Museum. Jason French is the museum’s curator of collections. He gives me a tour of the exhibit called Kentucky Craft Luminaries: Sharing the Stories. French points to a quilt made by Owen County textile artist, Rebekka Seigel. The red and white quilt called ‘Lucille Ball Paper Doll Quilt’ is almost as large as the wall where it’s displayed.
“It’s a quilt that has all of these kind of patches, that are dresses and outfits that actually Velcro into the place on the quilt. And it gives it a little more dimension," said French.
