Gumbo Design Studios specializes in quilt patterns, presentations and workshops, and custom projects. With more than 30 years experience in designing and crafting fiber art projects with a Louisiana French Creole heritage, Deborah incorporates vivid color, print textures and contemporary interpretations to her work. Using commercial fabrics,is like making a rich gumbo,where the elements work together to create a unique and striking result. Every pattern includes some lagniappe (lan-yap),a little something extra. Common in the New Orleans culture,lagniappe is like a “baker’s dozen”. It’s a gift to my customers to share my love for quilting and my home town. My studio is more than 800 sq. ft. and sits in quiet woodlands just north of Culpeper,VA. Join me for a class and let the country soothe you!
