My online shop is now closed. After 27 years of being a travelling tutor, writing skill-building books and producing online educational classes, I am taking a break. Time for trying something different for a while, to create new work, and to go in a different direction with my quilt making.

In 2027 a very light teaching schedule may be offered.

I would like to thank every person who has attended a workshop, taken an online class of mine or has bought one of my skill building books over the years. It has been my absolute pleasure to teach the Deborah Louie way of machine applique and domestic machine quilting to so many lovely quilters.

Thank you to every quilt shop, quilt guild, quilt convention, quilt symposium and quilt retreats I have taught at over the many years. Thank you  BERNINA Australia for your support and friendship. A big thank you to the many friends I have made you have all helped me enormously and I’m very grateful for your friendships. To my friend Denise Green who has helped edit my books right from the start, thank you.

Finally to my husband John and my family for their love and unwavering support even when I was away from home so much. I could not have achieved all that I have without you my loves.
