I stumbled upon this page because I googled her sister, Jamie Ulhenbrock, one of my all time favorite professors in undergraduate school (art history) and if I'm not mistaken, at that time the only female faculty member in the entire art department. What a lot of talent in one family!

I like the architectural element crowded with letters juxtaposed against the open brick-like background. The 'busy' contrasts and compliments the openness of the rest of the quilt.elammahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10060586943800664587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3068163762024579638.post-47677831782966005372010-12-05T18:17:23.301-08:002010-12-05T18:17:23.301-08:00I love quilt #1 Earth's bounty!I love quilt #1 Earth's bounty!Martha Tsihlashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18228057074112219454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3068163762024579638.post-64672897799879613822010-12-05T17:22:21.132-08:002010-12-05T17:22:21.132-08:00I love the openwork of Quilt #1 and also the natur...I love the openwork of Quilt #1 and also the natural colors!Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14723253034330260674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3068163762024579638.post-16712631268242358432010-12-05T16:13:20.600-08:002010-12-05T16:13:20.600-08:00Quilt # 1 because it is so reminiscent of my child...Quilt # 1 because it is so reminiscent of my childhood on a farm.

I am living in ohio, land of long green cornfields and paynes gray skies, so I get the lush quality. I am a gardener, so the colors bring me right home. But mostly, I love the negative spaces between the leaves. My pick? Number 1!<br /><br />Beautiful! Thank you!

They are all, of course, beautiful and lovely to view. I'm torn between #1 and #4 - they are both so organic and full of nature-inspired color.
