With unabashed acknowledgement of nepotism, I present to you the finest quilter I know, with her answers to 5Q4: Fran Kahane. At what moment did you discover you wanted to be a quilter or fabric artist? That’s where I learned more complex garment-making and other fabric techniques.

Gene Kahane is the founder of the Foodbank Players, a lifelong teacher, and former Poet Laureate for the City of Alameda.
