Who are we?
Each quilt is made by a collaborative team of 10 trans and queer artists. This includes interviewers, audio editors, quilters and more. The project vision is also held by a team of trans and queer community based artists. We’re also supported by a broad array of informal advisors, sweeties, therapists, funders, grandparents and teachers who have laid the path that this project walks down. Thank you to each of them.
