I joined Vanessa’s Crafty Gemini Quilt Club when she first started it and met her in person for the first time at one of her retreats in Florida. Vanessa is the real deal! She is so smart, creative and humble. Besides being a wonderful teacher and crafter, she is devoted to her family and their farm life, raising vegetables, goats and her own two beautiful children. I am so excited and thrilled about Vanessa’s Dominicana fabric line. I can’t wait to order some!
