In this episode of Sew & So, we welcome artist, educator, and storyteller TaMara Howard of Folk Quilts, whose quilts weave together heritage, innovation, and identity. Inspired by her great-grandmother’s stories, TaMara has grown from self-taught beginnings to becoming an award-winning quilter with work in museum collections nationwide. Joining her is Deanna Springer, co-founder of the Great Wisconsin Quilt Show, who shares how TaMara became part of this year’s featured lineup. Together, they discuss quilting as a cultural statement, a creative outlet, and a bridge between past and future—while giving us a behind-the-scenes look at the upcoming Great Wisconsin Quilt Show.
