Interesting because I've only seen a couple of quilts made by men and I thought they were interesting, but not nearly so as some of the ones I've seen done by women. Could it be because women dominate the genre and they have made more quilts?

There is an exception that floored me, Albert Small:

Then too it could be the mosaic quilt pattern that floored me, and really not anything to do with the fact that a man produced them

I keep being told that men find intereting color combinations, but after seening the work of Jenny Beyer, I'm inclined not to think that is really true so much about men as it is about individuals.
