Vanessa tells us – “Colour or lack of colour can be a powerful thing and can change the whole look of a quilt, play around with it and be amazed with different quilts you can create with just moving some colour around even when using the same block!”
Vanessa has designed 8 collections with Moda. The latest, Spectrum, a whole spectrum of colour in one collection. Well known for her ombre collection, the dynamic Vanessa showcases her clean lines and clever designs which bring the vibrancy of her colours to life.
Vanessa is the author of the ‘Simply Color, A Crayon Box for Quilters’ books and Make it Sew Modern, gather, twist, pleat, texture.
