About the Participants

A picture of a white person smiling while holding a quilt in front of them. The quilt consists of a grid of nine squares with the corners and center square pink and the others a series of vertical blue and yellow stripes.Eliot Anderberg (they/them) is a quilter and artist based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. They are the creator of the Euphoria Quilt, a trans and queer group quilt project that seeks to celebrate and archive expressions of gender-expansive joy. In the spirit of their great-great grandmothers, four of whom gathered frequently with their community to make quilts, they are interested in quilting as a community-based art form that fosters connection, both in the present and across space and time.
