It has been suggested I make a post to pin at the top, with some info for anyone who decides to stop by.
First, I have my most important links at the top, but if you don't feel like scrolling up, here you go.
My Kofi Page - here you will find my gallery, shop, and the options for supporting me. This includes a monthly option, called a membership. My Kofi page is like Etsy and Patreon rolled into one, with some extras, and much more user-friendly. Selling my work also reduces the mentality of my being a burden, and thank you for making that load much lighter for me. Pssst...my members get automatic discounts on shop listings and commissions, and some things are available only to my members.
My Throne List - this is a list where you can purchase items for me, and do so anonymously. I have quilt-related things, stuff for hEDS, egift cards, and other randoms. My being Disabled and my husband being the only source of income aside from my fixed income, I don't have much opportunity to shop for anything that isn't 100% necessary.
My AO3 - I write Dragon Age fanfiction, namely the smutty stuff. Because I can. Fair warning: I like it explicit and mixed with humor because life is weird and funny. You will need to be logged in to read anything I post. My account is locked in order to prevent AI from scraping it so easily.
My smutty romance book list - not part of the links, but figured I may as well share here. I love filthy explicitly detailed smutty romances. I'm also quite picky about what I like. If smutty romance is what you like, check out the link. Scifi, historical, historical fantasy, modern day/contemporary, and a mix of all of these are on the list.
Second, I have some details here for y'all since I know so many of you are a curious bunch...
I'm a Disabled queer artist with a focus on quilts. When able, I'm also a watercolor painter. My work is done Friday-Monday, taking Tuesday-Thursday off because those are my husband's days off. On those days, I game, write (mostly fanfiction), assist in housecleaning as my body allows, and spend time with Hubby.
I'm pagan and the pantheons I work with are Norse and Celtic. I'm a devotee of Cernunnos, and work a lot with Thor (patron god of the blue collar/working class), Freyja, and The Morrigan. Every home has spirits, and I've been working with those who reside in my own house. I love their company and it appears they enjoy mine as well. I do suggest you talk to your home, set up a little shrine with something as simple as a plant, a bowl, and a cup. Share a portion of your meals with them, explain changes you've made and why (like hanging artwork, home improvements, etc), and build a relationship with them. It makes a big difference. Call me crazy if you want, but it's spooked tf outta my husband when he saw how swiftly things improved when he apologized to the house and explained the home improvements and repairs we've made.
Some info regarding my style:
My style will never be called subtle. Bold and bright is my route. Even when working in black and white, I will make it stand out.
My personal aesthetic is cottage core, stained glass, art nouveau, and Hawaiian prints (especially the campy stuff).
I lean towards jewel-tones, which is why I really enjoy making stained glass quilts. Bright jewel-tones with the darkest black in strips between sections? Fuck, yes.
My favorite animals are housecats, snow leopards, clouded leopards, penguins, peacocks, and hummingbirds. In that order. The last two are the colorful ones.
My favorite flowers are daisies of every kind, and very fragrant flowers. Not a fan of roses though. I think they're overrated.
I collect teacups and fairies, with a big love for mushrooms, moss, and teapots.
Most of my quilts are small because they're quick to make. My primary focus has been on stocking my shop, but now that my husband has a well-paying job as a sous chef, I can focus on decorating our home and get to work on the quilts I wanna make for us.
We're turning what is technically the dining room into my quilting room. It's slow-going due to my disabilities, but it's coming along. The walls are no longer shiny hospital blue, but are a matte green and the ceiling a matte white. I've moved The Monster (my massive hutch) in there and will be painting it as well. the room with have The Monster to store all my tea-related stuff (I love tea), and everything related to machine quilting.
I have a machine quilting frame, and a domestic sewing machine specifically for it, set up in there for me to work on BIG quilts. They'll be put to use after the room is finished.
Fun facts:
We will be celebrating 20 years of marriage in 2026. Yay! We married at a renaissance fair in 2006, but the seizure med I was on at that time prevented me from developing many memories. I have flashes of the wedding, but that's it.
I'm epileptic and have seizures everyday. Thankfully, the Big Ones, in my case tonic-clonic, aren't daily.
I was diagnosed with hEDS when I was 41. My doctor genuinely believed I had been diagnosed already because the symptoms are so obvious. We've also come to the conclusion I have vEDS due to the severity and ease with which I bruise, the length of time it takes for bruises and injuries to heal, and various other interesting things. Unfortunately, the only way to officially diagnose vEDS is via genetics testing. My insurance won't cover it.
To make things more interesting, I have POTS as well. I get virtually no sewing done during the summer/dry season due to this. My sewing room gets hot as balls before noon due to where the room being on the more eastern side of the house. I have to get up at around 5AM in order to get anything done in there. Thankfully, it's only four months of hell. My tolerance for heat is almost comically low.
I've got other disabilities as well. These are why I cannot work a "Real Job." I do my best to bring in money via selling my work. Please, purchase my work. I know commissions and custom-made items are awesome, but they take time. There are many listings in my shop, with more incoming, and I can ship those off right away.
When I drop things, I, um...sorta scream? Not the sort that would scare anyone into thinking I'm dealing with a home invasion or violence. Let's just say that Telemed appointments have resulted in my doctors laughing themselves to tears because I dropped my pen on the floor or whatever. In person, this shit is so much funnier and absurd.
My husband is a DnD dungeon/game master, and his players have heard me scream like my previous point. It never fails to make everyone laugh.
He paints the miniatures he uses in his games, and I construct all the buildings. The only thing that stopped me from becoming a carpenter was my seizures. They and heavy operating equipment with sharp blades do not mix well at all.
Hubby is a professional cook. The only reason he doesn't call himself a chef is due to not going to cooking school. This man has been working in kitchens for more than 30 years. He is a fucking chef, and his own employer has said as much. It does make him grin every time I tell someone I have my own personal chef, though.
He is also my official caregiver and is even paid by the state. It covers our mortgage and a portion of our bills, and takes some of the guilt about being a burden off my mind. He refuses to say I'm a burden, and shushes me anytime I mention feeling guilty about being unable to bring in more money.

My husband found two more DnD terrain kits!!! I can now build two more structures. I've used one of these before, and it took about six hours. These will keep me busy for a few day. If you would like to assist in keeping me from becoming bored*, i have several more terrain kits and Lego sets here.
*boredom fucks with ADHD brains. Understimulated ADHD results in depression. In many cases, it can lead to suicidal ideations. I've experienced this, and was forced into a psych ward by a well-meaning friend. The ADHD brain needs stimulation, and novelty is an excellent source. That's where we get impulsive.
Normally, making quilts provides this stimulation. Unfortunately, my sewing room gets very hot very fast from June-October. Prior to my hip injury, i could work for two hours a day, 10 hours a week. Now, it's one hour a day, five hours a week, courtesy of a hip injury. Until i have surgery and recover, i'm severely limited in what i can do.
I would normally be writing most of the day, but i can't sit upright. Yup, because of my hip. I can recline, which is why i'm in my recliner most of the day. So no time at my PC. Writing by hand is not an option. Pain in my wrist after 10 minutes, if i push through it, i swiftly lose my ability to write altogether. Then it's several days of pain and recovery.
Building never bores me. It's why i love making quilts. It's why i love Lego sets and terrain kits. It's why i love city builder games.
Gaming all day leaves me with pain, which is why i avoid doing so.

This Fourth of July, I ask that you support Native Hawaiian independence.
The Kingdom of Hawai’i was illegally overthrown with the help of American businessmen and we have suffered under the iron grip of America.
Our land is simply seen as a vacation spot, my people are simply seen as tour guides and hula dancers. We have had our culture, our history, and our people turned into a commercialized joke by America.
The rampant tourism kills our islands with endless hotels, attractions and overcrowding. The housing and living costs are out of control because of the false “paradise” narrative. The Navy poisons our water and destroys our land. Covid has killed so many of my people due to the reckless and selfish nature of tourists. I have lost loved ones to this virus, because tourists “couldn’t stay away”.
My people have suffered. I have suffered.
We are more than your vacation. We are more than an aesthetic.
We are a sovereign nation illegally occupied by the United States of America.
Restore Hawai’i to Hawaiians. End the American Occupation.
See the links below to learn more and to read up on your Hawaiian history.

Researchers uncovered a campaign called StegoAd that uses sleeper Edge extensions to deliver malware hidden in images
Microsoft has removed 119 extensions from the Edge add-on store which were all tied to one adware campaign.
In a paper titled “Inside StegoAd: How We Disrupted a Massive Malicious Extension Campaign,” Microsoft researchers detail how they uncovered and dismantled a sophisticated malware campaign that abused browser extensions to infect users. According to Microsoft, the campaign involved 119 malicious browser extensions which were downloaded by 2.6 million users.
The extensions all promised, and delivered, some kind of basic functionality: ad blockers, VPNs, translators, video downloaders, calculators, coupon extensions and so on. But after a while they turned out to be “sleepers” and secretly started downloading additional malware.
Among the payload was malware involved in ad fraud, but also extensions that ran arbitrary JavaScript pushed from the server, which stole Google credentials and second-factor codes at sign-in, harvested WordPress admin logins, and exfiltrated cookies in bulk for session hijacking.
The name of the campaign “StegoAd” is derived from the words advertising and steganography, which means techniques of hiding secrets in something that doesn’t immediately cause suspicion. In this case, hiding code in images.
And not only did the cybercriminals try to stay under the radar by waiting for some time, and hiding malicious code inside images, they also left some victims alone. Some of the extensions only went rogue in about 10% of installs, which would actually execute the next stage of the malware, while the other ~90% would be left alone (at least for that execution attempt). And, in some cases, they re-used names of well-known legitimate extensions to install an additional level of trust.
Browser extensions are a source of wealth for cybercriminals because it compares to installing a small program that lives inside your browser, which can see and report about everything you do on the internet.
Now I hear some of you thinking: I don’t use Edge. Or I’ve used it just once, to download and install my favorite browser. But although Microsoft discovered and analyzed the campaign, the techniques used in this campaign are applicable to Chromium-based browsers in general.
This campaign was less about exploiting a browser vulnerability and more about tricking users into installing a trusted-looking extension, then using sophisticated concealment techniques to avoid detection long enough to compromise systems.

If you would like to have something handmade and one-of-a-kind, check out my quilts. As small as 1.5x1.5 inches and as large as queen size.
As many of my followers know, i had a severe hip dislocation in April.* This requires surgery to repair, and recovery will have me on bedrest for several weeka or even months. I have a consultation on June 25th, which means surgery may happen in July.
I'm raising money to acquire the laptop and lap desk i have on my Throne list here. This laptop will provide me with the means to write my book, and access to entertainment in general. There are other things on the list that will help keep me occupied as well. You may choose to purchase the listed items on my behalf, with the option of remaining anonymous.
In order to acquire necessary funds, i'm opening commissions. I will work on these until i can't. What i don't complete prior to surgery will have to wait until until after i recover. If you buy a commission, this is something you need to understand. If i have surgery this summer, i may not be back in the sewing room until this winter. You could be waiting for several months for your commission.
Now, that being said, let's get to the good stuff!
Pay What You Want - starts at $57 USD, what you receive won't be seen until it arrives. What you pay will influence what i choose to make, so beware this is a bit of a gamble.
Mug Rug - starts at $62 USD, 6x8 to 12x12 inches. Foundation paper piecing is an option. These are large enough for a mug and snack.
Single serving dining set - starts at $98 USD, and includes one placemat and matchint coaster. Foundation paper piecing is an option.
Set of four coasters - starts at $112 USD, with the option of adding more coasters to the set. Foundation paper piecing is also an option.
Table runner - starts at $246 USD, with the option of using insulated batting for this to serve as a long hot pad. Foundation paper piecing is also available.
Four piece placemat set - starts at $246 USD, with the options of adding a set of coasters and a table runner for a full collection. Foundation paper piecing is available as well.
Mini quilt - starts at $281 USD, and foundation paper piecing is an option.
Pine tree wallhanging - $292 USD, and can serve as an alternative for a yuletide tree. I have one, in pink, blue, and purple, and my ornaments are pins and buttons.
Potted plants wallhanging - $464 USD, and made using mostly scraps.
Just the quilt top - starts at $481 USD, with options for larger sizes. You will receive the finished top and will have to either do the quilting yourself or hire someone to do it for you. If you wish for me to use foundation paper piecing, pay twice the amount and mention you want me to use FPP and the size range. If there is a pattern you would like me to use, feel free to ask but I promise nothing.
*It caused something called a flap tear on the front of my right hip. A 4cm cyst developed next to it and just inside the edge of the joint. It has made it virtually impossible to sit upright for more tham 10 minutes at a time due to this section if my hip pinching the tear and cyst. I have pain tolerance high enough to scare my doctor and physical therapists, and the pain sitting upright causes is enough to bring me to tears.
My hip surgery consultation did not go well. They were more middleman than anything else. It was basically confirmation i do need surgery. They sent a referral out for an orthopedic surgeon. In a month, i may hear from them again about apirating the cyst next to the flap tear, and a cortisol shot to reduce the swelling. The earliest they can see me is at the end of August.
I was hoping for surgery during the summer. The weather rarely changes, which has my joints happy. Autumn fluctuates and makes my body very unhappy.
In good news, i have plenty of time to finish the wallhanging i plan on hanging in my sewing room.
We're still preparing for my surgery, which means
prepping the house, and hopefully getting a ramp installed,
putting together activities to keep me occupied, like Lego sets,
and putting money together for me to get the laptop I need, seeing as I would like to write my book. Currently, i cannot sit at my computer because i end up pinching the injured area of my hip.
I have a list you can order from and help me out here. It has the laptop crowdfund, ttrpg constructs for me to build, Lego sets, food, postcards and postage stamps (i'm active on postcrossing), and various other things. You can order them on my behalf, with the option of remaining anonymous.
Commissions are open, with ten slots, and will remain open until all slots are taken or when the wet season arrives...so probably October.
If you would like to have something handmade and one-of-a-kind, check out my quilts. As small as 1.5x1.5 inches and as large as queen size.
I will work on commissions as much as I safely can. When surgery happens, there will be a lengthy wait. Could be a few weeks or a few months. Snatch up a slot soon!
Please reblog!!!
I'm on social security, and my husband hasn't been able to find a second job. What he makes as my state-paid caregiver covers our mortgage and a couple bills. My SSDI covers about two weeks of groceries and one other bill. Before our current leadership caused inflation to get this bad, it would have been barely enough. Not anymore. Any help we can get will make a difference, and that includes reblogging, which is free.
Liking a post bookmarks it for you, reblogs get seen.
