While you use layout, you have never created and assigned an instance to it:

QGridLayout *layout; // no initialization here
headerBar *Header = new headerBar(this);
layout->addWidget(Header,0,0); // layout is uninitialized and probably garbage

You should create it first before using it:

QGridLayout *layout = new QGridLayout(this);
