Dead bunny Dobson FTW! ("Daddy, why did you kill the bunny rabbit?")
But I must say van Doesburg's designs have awesome quilting potential. I like the first one in particular.

Feeling unexcited about both. But less unexcited by van Doesburg

I'm not a big fan of either but I'll go with Van Doesburg
Well I like 'em both, and I'm going for Van Doesburg. It works out the same in the end. I like the mathiness.
Hmmm, toss-up. I'll go with Van Doesburg.
Definitely Dobson. The positioning of that gun is just too perfect. One can just imagine the precocious young son, "Don't you think you might be compensating a bit, papa?"
I agree with Elizabeth--in fact, a recent draft for a quilt I was considering looked a lot like the first Van Doesburg, but with color--but what I like in a quilt doesn't always do it for me in other arenas. Besides, I think the Dobson ones are very speaking.
A vote-by-email for Mr. Dobson.

Dobson, I think!
What a thriller! Van Doesburg went ahead 6-1, before five Dobson votes in a row evened up the score. That puts us in to what we call a "tie," and means that both gentlemen will go into the pool of artists who win be taking on the Play-In Artists. You'll probably see them again in a year or so.
Voting closed in this match.
