I am willing to do custom quilts, bed quilts and lap quilts. I especially enjoy making cat themed quilts, but I’ll make most any quilt except Double Wedding Ring (beautiful, but ye gods), Cathedral Window or those puffy Biscuit quilts!

I’ve been making zero-budget videos featuring a couple of characters in a classic mismatched-roommates setup. Some of the videos are dialogues about recent history (the Mueller Report, QAnon, et al.), some are brief skits, some are self-indulgent pieces that I pretend are art. All are basically excuses for me to wear costumes in front of a camera. Some day I may get good at it.
