During a special visit to New Orleans for BERNINA University, the Sew & So team steps inside the Mardi Gras Museum of Costumes and Culture for what becomes one of the most memorable conversations in the show's history. Museum founder Carl Mack shares the rich traditions, artistry, music, history, and community that make Mardi Gras far more than a single day of celebration. From elaborate hand-crafted costumes and royal regalia to Second Lines, Mardi Gras Indians, and Carnival Krewes, Carl offers an unforgettable behind-the-scenes look at one of America's most vibrant cultural traditions while sharing the personal journey that led him to dedicate his life to preserving it.
