Deborah’s love of colour, sewing, and textiles started when she was a girl growing up in the family textiles business in Sydney which specialised in hand dyeing laces and beautiful fabrics.
Deborah studied colour and design at college before commencing work in the textile printing industry, but her true passion was found later when she spent time at home with her young family and fell in love with quilting. Deborah started her own domestic machine quilting business, quilting over 600 quilts for clients, which developed her skills in both traditional and contemporary design. Inspired by the river and natural bushland of her Sydney studio, and by her life and love of colour and design, Deborah believes quilting is a labour of love, and each quilt is a beautiful piece of textile art to add to your home or a gift for a special friend. As an acclaimed and multi award winning quilting designer and tutor with over 25 years of happy stitching, Deborah loves nothing more than to create new designs and teach quilting across Australia. Deborah’s designs challenge quilters of all skill levels and help them to make the best of the wonderful capabilities of their sewing machines.
