    I absolutely love all of Laurel Burch's designs. I think it is because her colors really appeal to me. I have a lot of her fabrics but they are in waiting at this time for inspiration. I do have a couple of her mugs, two tote bags, some earings and two of her greeting card collections. Oh I forgot to add a Christmas wall hanging that I found at Goodwill. Yeah for Laurel Burch. I will look for the Laurel Burch quilt books, they sound interesting.

    I made a "Christmas Cat" pillow for my 6 yr old GD..she loves it...it was so much fun to make. I had no idea she died. I thought she was really young. I love her things...one of my favorites was a sweat shirt I got for Christmas several years ago...long since worn out!

    Hi, I'm new here!

    Saw this thread and thought I'd show you this Burch quilt I made. It's one of the simplest quilts I've ever made, but I had to whip something up for an occasion, and this way the busy fabrics were showcased.

    I really like the bags the company makes from her fabric. Most of my collection is the horses, with a few cats thrown in as well.

    Default Laurel Burch

    Here is (I hope) a picture of a Laurel Burch quilt that I made a couple of Christmases ago for my sister-in-law. It was not too hard and turned out really nice.

    Several years ago my friend bought me a tote bag from Laurel's design. I love the color and the horses on it!

    I love Laurel Burch, especially the Oceans Song pieces. I've been buying some pieces from ebay to keep for a future project. Just this week, the Oceans Song quilt kit, unopened and brand new, was listed. It went for $101.57. I wish it could have been me to buy it. But just no way right now. And I'm only a beginner. Maybe I should finish a few pieces before spending $100 on a kit I may never use. But even if I didn't use it, I would love looking at the fabrics.

    I received one of her purses as aChristmas present a few years ago and fell in love with her vibrant use of colors.

    Sadly, she passed away a couple of years ago. Her designs are great and glad to hear that her family will allow them to be still sold. I never bought a lot, but did enjoy the socks I bought and was very sad when they wore out. Several people I know have totes of hers. I will have to check out her scarves...I wear a lot of those.
