Ulla.
| My name is Ulla Christensen, born 1938. Married to Poul
Erik. We have 2 grown sons and 2 teenage grandchildren. |
| |
 |
| For nearly 20 years secretary to general practitioners and
district psychiatry. |
| In 1985 I began doing patchwork advised by a friend who knew I
always had some needlework going. |
| |
| During the years I have participated, things
have develloped incredibly. Just think of the cutting kit and all the
fascinating new sewingmachine techniques, the multitude of festivals and
competitions. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| I am selfmade and spend most of my leisure time
develloping and working with patchwork techniques, which I employ in quilts
and clothing. I feel that my imagination and creativity thrive doing that.
I have also had time to attend classes by wellknown artists both in my own
country and abroad: |

|
| A few times a month I "work"
for "Botosan Childrens Services
. Danmark". An organisation of volunteers in the island of Mors. I am head of the workroom, where we make clothes for "our"
orphans and their nursing people.
A meaningful spare time occupation - which helps
children as well as adults as we notice. We try to help people to help
themselves.
