I'm Deb

HEY

The maker and dreamer behind Debart Designs and Iridiana Fabrics, based in sunny Brisbane, Australia.

​

What began as a creative outlet quickly became a passion that stitched its way into my everyday life. I’ve always loved the process — choosing fabrics, watching embroidery designs come to life, and turning simple materials into something meaningful.

​

When I discovered cross stitch, it felt like the missing piece. That love for colour and texture eventually led me to fabric dyeing, where Iridiana Fabrics was born.

Creating hand-dyed, magical colourways has become one of my greatest joys — a way to blend creativity, intuition, and a touch of whimsy into every piece of linen and aida I dye.

​

Today, my days are spent crafting WIP Keeper Project Bags, hand-dyed fabrics, and handmade treasures for stitchers who understand that every work-in-progress has its own story.

​

In the Stitchery Store, you’ll also find a curated collection of supplies and tools chosen with the same care I put into every bag and fabric — thoughtful, beautiful, and ready to inspire your next creative moment.

​

Whether you’re searching for your next project bag, piece of hand-dyed fabric, or simply want to chat about stitching, I’m always here to connect with fellow makers. After all, every stitcher’s journey is unique — and that’s what makes our community so special.
