Deb Layt
I have been working in the sewing industry for over twenty years with my initial involvement over this
period of time being in the retail sales of sewing machines. I have also been involved in local and
interstate craft show demonstrations and presentations, becoming well known in the industry as a
tutor on many of the sewing disciplines.
In the past Fifteen years my main involvement has been in the area of Patchwork and Quilting. I am
a member of Victorian Quilter's Association Inc, Australian Quilters Inc and the Quilter's Guild of
South Australia Inc.
I have consistently been asked to speak at Quilt group meetings and other interested groups over
the past twelve years. Since taking on the challenge of a business that incorporates my passion I
have focused on the world of patchwork and quilting.
The Patchwork Gallery developed into a place to go for quality fabric, great knowledge and a high
standard of patchwork and quilting classes. I actively participate in quilt exhibitions and
enthusiastically encourage Australian content and a development of our own quilting identity.
