Vasudha Govindan
Vasudha is an engineer by day and quilter by night. She has been quilting for over 20 years. In Modern Quilting, Vasudha found an aesthetic that inspired her to get more deeply involved in the art, the craft and the community of quilting.
Vasudha's designs are heavily influenced by the arts and crafts of India, where she grew up. She finds inspiration in concepts from math, science, engineering and architecture. Vasudha is an active member of the Houston Modern Quilt Guild. She lives with her husband and two boys in Houston, Texas.
