Baby Quilt done!

About Me

My name is Nina Scott-Stoddart, also known as The Dangerous Mezzo. I’m an artist who started quilting as a response to being covid-furloughed from my work as an opera administrator, educator, singer and designer. All posts are cat-approved.

I’m happy to take commissions for quilted items large and small. Contact me at ninascottstoddart@gmail.com

Meet Ralph

Ralph
Ralph Roister Doister is a giant 12 year old cat we adopted as a kitten from SHAID Tree Shelter in Nova Scotia. He is my constant sewing supervisor. While my husband and I have four other cats, Ralph has always been the most interested in snuggling into my fabric, and my current interest in quilting has delighted him.
