Good Law Project launches Trans Unity Quilt Project to bring joy and hope to trans people across the UK

Good Law Project has launched the Trans Unity Quilt Project, a campaign by and for trans people across the UK to bring joy and hope by making a quilt that will stretch over 50 metres long

Inspired by the long history of textile protest art, Good Law Project is working with trans people and allies to create a giant, collaborative patchwork quilt. Each square will tell a unique trans story to make a bespoke trans flag longer than an Olympic swimming pool.

In summer 2026, we will march this patchwork banner through the capital at London Trans+ Pride – a celebration of shared resistance to hatred, division, and erasure.

Dedicated workshops will be held online and across the UK between February and March 2026. And free materials and support are available HERE for trans people and allies to take part.

CN Lester, co-creative lead, said: “We’re tired of toxic debates about ‘trans ideology’ talking across the reality of trans lives. With the Trans Unity Quilt, we’re taking up space and telling our own stories.”

Mars Callick, co-creative lead, said: “Textile art has given power to resistance movements across history. We’re joining this collective creative tradition, stitching together our experiences as a beautiful and diverse community, to bring hope and strength to all of us.”

Cat MacLean, policy advisor at Good Law Project, said: "With trans people under ever increasing attack, the Trans Unity Quilt shows how we can come together and be strong. We've been fighting hard against trans oppression – now we want to help create a joyful future that's full of hope."
