Today, I sent off the first quilt of this project to the first organization! It’s hard for me to believe how this project has taken off. I can’t wait to see what’s next.
Also - sorry I’m not as great at updating Bluesky! I am but one person 😅

Made a quilt block last night in around 20-30 minutes! This is a simple, three stripe block. This is how easy it is to participate in the project 🩷 I’ll be making more videos in the future that have ideas for someone without a sewing machine.

The Trans Pride Quilt Project is, at this moment, just an idea. I would like to see if people are interested in something like this.
Trans Pride Quilt Project A collaborative effort to create fabric squares to assemble into quilts that will then be donated to organizations that serve trans folks.
