Interviews were conducted with partners including the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive (in conjuction with its Routed West exhibit and the Austin Modern Quilt Guild.) Virtual programming and education The Quilt Alliance participated as one of four partner organizatoins in in the fifth year of the Textile Talks lecture series. The QA presented 11 of the 51 talks presented in the 2025 season, with topics including spotlights of quilting luminaries, including Broadway actor Harvey Fierstein, and sister organizations including the AFri. 2025 also saw the return of the Quilt Alliances quilt challenge, a quilt contest with accompanying training about quilt photography and labeling. Go Tell It at the Quilt Show! 2025 marked the 13th anniversary of this project to document and share stories of quilts where quiltmakers and quilt owners gather. The formula for Go Tell It! is simple: one person talking about one quilt in front of one video camera for three minutes. We continued the virtual collectioin of the Go Tell It! interviews for various QA projects and events, some recorded via Zoom and others recorded and submitted by the Tellers. The Go Tell It! online archive topped 1,000 interviews with quiltmakers in 2025. 96279 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 9 0 3 true false false false false false false false false false false X 8 8 false false false false true false false true true false false false true true true false true true true false NC X Virginia Perez Romero 8285517774 528 Emma Road Asheville NC 28806 Amy Milne Executive Director 40.00 X 73140 0 0 Laura Hopper Co-President 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Bradley Mitchell Co-President 1.00 X X 0 0 0 H Mark Dunn Vice-President 1.00 X X 0 0 0 A'donna Richardson Treasurer 3.00 X X 0 0 0 Frances O'Roark Dowell Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lisa Ellis Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Gwen Westerman Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Teresa Duryea Wong Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 73140 0 0 false false false 31113 9416 142824 183353 9 0 9 3780 3780 3780 Other Income 999999 200 0 0 200 200 187342 0 0 3989 72505 29002 25377 18126 59808 36115 17770 5923 7046 3468 2297 1281 11981 0 11981 0 5978 3829 1268 881 7874 1945 5698 231 10035 7024 3011 0 2852 2852 0 0 3385 0 3385 0 Community Quilt Days 7050 7050 0 0 Oral History Indexing 5015 4874 141 0 Other Expenses 2821 120 2701 0 196350 96279 73629 26442 115416 30979 45336 120215 160752 151194 3454 2904 3454 2904 X 157298 148290 157298 148290 160752 151194 -9008 X X true X false true false X 0 122606 155929 216770 242469 183353 921127 0 0 122606 155929 216770 242469 183353 921127 28512 892615 11 11 8 8 9 47 0 2992 0 0 25 200 3217 924391 66564 0.96560 0.96280 X 0 0 0 Pt II Ln 10 Other Income Part II, Line 10 Description: Miscellaneous 2021: 2992. 2022: 0. 2023: 0. 2024: 25. 2025: 200.
