In February @publiclibraryquilts came up with a plan to fundraise for queer and trans youth charities in the U.S. in response to the ‘Don’t Say Gay’ Bill (Jess is from California). We made a quilt and a banner each and had a raffle, and we raised £6000 in a couple of weeks for @gendernation and @truecolorsunited which I am very proud of because talking about trans issues sadly limits your reach on here! Swipe to see the banner in its happy final home, with Laura in Hampshire (where I grew up 😌). Laura says: ‘As a person who came out to themselves in their 30s, knowing I’ll be able to look at something so gleefully affirming every day fills me with joy - thank you Alice and Jess, your work astonishes me’ 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
